Enhancing Theoretical Calculation With Virtual Validation Using SOLIDWORKS Simulation

In the world of engineering, precision is paramount. But can you always rely on traditional hand calculations to deliver the most accurate results? Simulation is revolutionizing the design process, offering a powerful tool to validate theoretical concepts and optimize designs.

This blog post explores the advantages of using SOLIDWORKS simulation to analyze a tapered rod under tensile load. We’ll compare the results obtained through hand calculations with those achieved through simulation, highlighting the valuable insights that simulation can provide. Get ready to delve into the world of simulation and discover how it can elevate your design confidence!

A steel rod circular in section, tapers from 3 cm diameter to 1.5 cm diameter in a length of 60 cm.Find how much its length will increase under a tensile force 22 kN. Take E = 2 x 105 N/ mm2

The Hand calculated taper Rod deflection is 0.186 mm. We will follow the solution using Simulation Package. The Material Properties introduced in the software.

Create a Geometry to build in the software for given Dimensions:

Fig (1) 3D model of Taper Rod

Fig (2) Material Properties involved in the calculation

Boundary conditions involved as per theoretical conditions involved in the same.

Fig (3) Fixing at the larger end

For solid we can arrest the three Translation x, y, z and rotation of Three components will be eliminated.

Fig (4) Fixing at the smaller end

Tensile Load on the smaller end with the load of 22kN.

Conclusion for Enhancing Theoretical Calculation With Virtual Validation Using SOLIDWORKS Simulation: 

We have compared the result of Taper rod subjected to tensile load using hand calculation and Solid works simulation.  SolidWorks simulation is giving us most accurate result compared to theoretical value.

What an ideal site.

  10. you may have an awesome blog right here! would you wish to make some invite posts on my weblog?

  11. Great post, you have pointed out some fantastic details , I besides believe this s a very good website.

  12. The subsequent time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I imply, I know it was my choice to learn, but I really thought youd have something fascinating to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you could repair in the event you werent too busy searching for attention.

  13. Excellent site. Plenty of useful info here. I am sending it to a few friends ans additionally sharing in delicious. And certainly, thank you for your sweat!

  14. Thanks for sharing. I read many of your blog posts, cool, your blog is very good.

  15. Thanks for sharing. I read many of your blog posts, cool, your blog is very good.

  16. супрастин таблетки инструкция по применению взрослым от чего помогает https://allergiano.ru/ .

  17. Would love to incessantly get updated outstanding web blog! .

  18. obviously like your web site however you need to check the spelling on several of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling issues and I to find it very bothersome to tell the truth then again I¦ll surely come again again.
