Using the Load Case Manager
- [Narrator] The functionality we're going to be describing in this video is load case manager. Just please note it's only available in SOLIDWORKS Professional and Premium Simulation options. We often want to apply multiple loading ingredients to build up a sophisticated load case, such as the Comrade tensile load case. This case combines bearing forces and inertial loads. We'd also like to run several load cases in one analysis, such as the tensile and compressive load cases together. A SOLIDWORKS load case manager enables us to do this. Right mouse click on the study icon in the analysis feature tree. We're going to choose load case manager. A new panel called load case view appears below the model view port. The contents look similar to a spreadsheet. We've got four main columns which represent the constraint and the three load objects that we applied, the compression, the tension, and the axle acceleration. The icons show the form of the loading objects, and the names we have…
