After a brief introduction to finite element modeling, the tutorial introduces the major concepts behind the use of Creo Simulate to perform Finite Element Analysis of parts. This textbook is written for first-time FEA users in general and Creo Simulate users in particular. 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. 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 Finite Element Analysis (FEA) philosophy are explained. 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. The tutorial lessons cover the major concepts and frequently used commands required to progress from a novice to an intermediate user level. Creo Simulate 8.0 Tutorial introduces new users to finite element analysis using Creo Simulate and how it can be used to analyze a variety of problems.
