Hello
Welcome to Fusion 360 Simulations
In this course we will be covering all of the simulations in Fusion 360
Also there will also be some basic diving into the physics that drives to these simulations
This will allow you to analyze your results and make improvements to your model to improve performance
First we will go over what information you will get from the simulation (what the simulation is for)
Then the basics physics will be covered
Then the environment for each simulation and options that are different between simulations will be over-viewed
Then a example will be setup using various options from the simulation study
Then the results will be analyzed and reviewed and brief discussion on improvements that could be made to part or study
Know this going in, simulating in fusion is very expensive
Static Stress is free but the cheapest simulation after that is 9 USD a simulation
Then the simulation price goes all the way up to 33 USD for Generative Design
To finalize a design it may take many revisions and updates and re simulating
This cost can add up fast to be aware
If you plan on doing alot of simulations there is a 1,600 USD Simulation Extension
This extension allows you to do infinite simulations
This might make sense for the simulation count you are doing
Make sure to evaluate the ROI (Return on Investment) for Simulation Extensions
But this does not cover generative design in the extension that is separate extension
Covered simulations are:
Static Stress
Modal Frequencies
Electronics Cooling
Thermal
Thermal Stress
Structural Buckling
Nonlinear Static Stress
Quasi-static Event Simulation
Dynamic Event Simulation
Shape Optimization
Injection Molding Simulation
Generative Design
