Features: CATIA V5 is a high-end CAD/CAE software developed by IBM/DS for personal computers. Its analysis and simulation modules, as well as the digital mockup module, are powerful and user-friendly. This book combines numerous examples to introduce the subject in a step-by-step manner. It first covers the basic knowledge of the finite element method, a common tool for engineering analysis, and then introduces the generative part finite element in CATIA, generative assembly part finite element analysis, advanced meshing tools, digital mockup navigator, digital mockup motion mechanism simulation, digital mockup spatial analysis, and digital mockup optimization. The book also includes a DC CD-ROM to help readers master the use of CATIA software. This book can serve as a reference for research personnel and engineering technicians in fields such as mechanical manufacturing, petrochemicals, light industry, shipbuilding, aerospace, automotive transportation, electronics, civil engineering, water conservancy, railways, household appliances, and biomedical engineering for engineering design. It can also be used as a teaching material for senior undergraduate and graduate students, as well as instructors in relevant university majors, and as a training textbook for learning CATIA software.
