How to do a Basic Linear Finite Element Analysis in CATIA V5

After this tutorial, hopefully you will be able to do a simple linear analysis using FEM (Finite Element Method). The steps are straight forward and the part used is available in my profile (foot peg - ATV). The idea behind this is seeing how it reacts to a Pressure of 125 KPa. All the units in this tutorials are in the IS (International System) but i will put the conversions Metric-Imperial. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS SUCH AS WHERE ARE THE COMMANDS LOCATED DON'T HESITATE TO CONTACT ME. Pedro José Silva Campos

Watch video Tutorial: https://youtu.be/T-3DHm7GsCg Consider supporting me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Interfluo This tutorial is meant for beginners interested in learning CFD. SolidWorks flow simulations are often regarded as a very poor cfd software, but I think that this assessment misses the point. I think that this software is best seen as a way of learning cfd and not as a cfd package. I wouldn't recommend this software for someone trying to perform a high fidelity LES simulation over a complex geometry with multiphase flow, but I would recommend it for a student learning the basics. When I was first learning cfd I used SolidWorks to quickly gain intuition for the basics and then I learned all of the theory. The insight I gained from SolidWorks provided a foundation to which I could attach all of the more advanced topics like turbulence modeling, pressure-velocity coupling, or so on.
