Features: Carefully selected typical engineering examples, introduces the main functions of COSMOSMotion for modeling, fully demonstrates SolidWorks design techniques, and includes rich materials on the accompanying CD-ROM. The animations are vivid and intuitive, capable of expressing the internal structure of complex products that are difficult to explain through text or narration, simulating the working conditions of the product, and achieving the purpose of communicating design ideas with non-professionals. COSMOSMotion is used to create motion mechanism models, conduct further analysis of mechanisms, track the motion trajectories of parts, and analyze the velocity, acceleration, forces, reaction forces, and moments of parts in the mechanism. The results are output in various forms such as animations, graphics, and tables. The analysis results can guide modifications to the structural design of parts or adjustments to their materials. Design changes can be reflected in the assembly model and re-analyzed. Once an optimized design solution is determined, the design changes can be directly reflected in the assembly model. Additionally, the complex load conditions of parts under complex motion can be directly output to mainstream finite element analysis software for accurate strength and structural analysis. This book introduces the animation demonstration and dynamics analysis aspects of SolidWorks, aiming to help readers promote products, verify the correctness of models, and convey design ideas. The book is suitable for readers from different fields and provides Chinese reference materials for SolidWorks users and CAE enthusiasts.
