Engineering Dynamics Labs with SOLIDWORKS Motion 2015

by Huei-Huang Lee

 

About This Book

This book is designed as a software-based lab book to complement a standard textbook in an Engineering Dynamics course, which is usually taught in junior undergraduate years. 

    There are 11 chapters (230 pages) in this book.  Each chapter consists of 2 sections.  Each section is designed for a student to follow the exact steps in that section and learn a concept or topic of Engineering Dynamics.  Typically, each section takes 15-40 minutes to complete the exercises.

1. The finished files can be opened with SOLIDWORKS 2015 or later versions.

2. It is suggested that, whenever a file is needed to start up an exercise, you use a file provided here, rather than your own finished file, so that the numerical results would be more consistent with those in the textbook.

3. The finished files of a section are compressed into a single file (.zip).  Please de-compress it before opening from SolidWorks.  When opening an assembly file, if you see a message such as “Unable to locate the file,” simply choose “Browse for file” and relocate the file.
