Mechanics of Materials Labs with SOLIDWORKS Simulation 2015
by Huei-Huang Lee
About This Book
This book is designed as a software-based lab book to complement a standard textbook in a Mechanics of Material course, which is usually taught in junior undergraduate years. This book also can be used as an auxiliary workbook in a CAE or Finite Element Analysis course for undergraduate students.
There are 14 chapters (278 pages) in this book. Each chapter is designed as one week's workload, consisting of 2 to 3 sections. Each section is designed for a student to follow the exact steps in that section and learn a concept or topic of Mechanics of Materials. Typically, each section takes 15-40 minutes to complete the exercises.

View Demo Videos or Download Finished Files
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. To reduce file sizes, the finished files do not include the result files (i.e., CWR files) generated by the finite element solver. Therefore, before viewing results, make sure SOLIDWORKS Simulation is loaded and issue a Run ALL Studies command to generate the results.

Part and Assembly Modeling with SOLIDWORKS 2015
This workbook has 121 pages and is an introductory tutorial to geometric modelings using SOLIDWORKS 2015. It is not intended to be a comprehensive guide to parts and assembly modelings. It is prepared mainly for those students who have no experience in SOLIDWORKS geometric modeling, but want to acquire some.
