Learn how to perform dynamic analysis using SOLIDWORKS Simulation. The course starts by covering dynamics theory and normal modes analysis. Dynamic analysis concepts are covered, including damping, mass participation, modal methods, and direct methods. Next, transient analysis is explored, including modal transient response, direct transient response, and base motion in dynamic response. Then, frequency response analysis, followed by how to interpret results.

Topics include:

Analysis of normal modes
Modeling different types of masses
Dynamic analysis
Controlling transient analysis
Analyzing motion of bases
Analyzing frequency response
Interpreting results of analysis
