Simplified 3D design with SolidWorks
Today, 3D design has become an essential skill for naval engineers. 3D CAD software, particularly SolidWorks, offers a multitude of features for designing complex parts and assemblies that can be modified in real-time to meet client requirements.
These features facilitate the detection of design problems before production launch, which can save significant costs. Its intuitive and user-friendly interface makes it one of the best computer-aided design (CAD) software for naval design
Structural sizing of the boat with integrated finite element analysis (FEA) tools
Among the many integrated tools, finite element analysis (FEA) functions allow real-time measurement of stresses and deformations in 3D parts and assemblies. The speed of iteration and calculation significantly reduces the time to analyze defective areas and allows the designer to focus on the performance of the final product. Thus, the structural elements of the ship can be sized and verified under conditions approaching real conditions.
Design of mechanical assemblies: optimizing the design process
SolidWorks is particularly suited for designing complex mechanical assemblies. Its various assembly tools offer options for controlling the fitting and positioning of parts, as well as the ability to detect potential collision risks. In addition, kinematic simulation features allow the modeling of interactions between parts and the detection of friction points or potential contact areas.
Efficient collaboration thanks to SolidWorks compatibility
SolidWorks offers great compatibility with other CAD software, making it easier to collaborate with other design teams. Visualization features allow for easy communication of changes to teams working on the project.
