Product Description
Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0 Mechanica Tutorial (Structure/Thermal) introduces new users to finite element analysis using Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica and how it can be used to analyze a variety of problems. The tutorial lessons cover the major concepts and frequently used commands required to progress from a novice to an intermediate user level. The commands are presented in a click-by-click manner using simple examples and exercises that illustrate a broad range of the analysis types that can be performed. In addition to showing the command usage, the text will explain why certain commands are being used and, where appropriate, the relation of commands to the overall FEA philosophy are explained. Moreover, since error analysis is an important skill, considerable time is spent exploring the created models so that users will become comfortable with the debugging phase of modeling. This book is written for first-time FEA users (in general) and MECHANICA users (in particular). After a brief introduction to finite element modeling, the tutorial introduces the major concepts behind the use of Pro/MECHANICA to perform Finite Element Analysis of parts. These include: modes of operation, element types, design studies (analysis, sensitivity studies, organization), and the major steps for setting up a model (materials, loads, constraints, analysis type), studying convergence of the solution, and viewing the results. Both 2D and 3D problems are treated. Table of Contents

Worth the money June 14, 2009

This book is worth the money. It's a simple beginners tutorial that is pretty easy to follow. You should have a very basic understanding of what fea is before buying this book. It has a good foundation of what goes on behind the scenes in mechanica as well as what the limitations of the program are. If you want to use mechanica as a quick check and not be a pro this is a good place to start. If you want to be a pro, then spend the money to take a class.
