🦖Using Solidworks for a year!🧑‍🔬

 With respect to modern day engineers (since the early 1950s) the creation of these models relies HEAVILY on the usage of CAD software. Computer Aided Design is the term assigned to the process of using a program on a computer in order to simulate an object and its physical capabilities. As a student in university today then - it is crucial to build a form of expertise with modern CAD software's such as Solidworks and Ansys.

This semester was the first then - that I received professional guidance on using Solidworks and Ansys - and my experience has been everything but negative. 

Some of the activities that we performed across the various suites for Solidworks have been:

• Standard CAD Modeling

• Engineering Drawing Creation

• Mass and Property Evaluation

• Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

• Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

Each of these activities have proven invaluable in creating a true foundation for modeling - with particular shortcuts for designing a variety of different parts.
