This book provides the necessary basics to perform simple to complex simulations with Siemens NX software. It is aimed at designers, CAE engineers, and engineering students. Based on NX 9 the following topics are covered in the book: Motion Simulation (MBD), Design Simulation FEA (Nastran), Advanced Simulation (FEA, CFD and EM) and the management of calculation and simulation data (Teamcenter for Simulation). Starting with brief theoretical introductions, each chapter contains learning tasks of increasing difficulty. Most of them are based on the CAD model of the legendary Opel RAK2. The CAD data and calculation results of all exercises can be found online. The exercises can be done in NX versions 8, 8.5, 9, 10 and probably later versions.

BASIC APPROACH: Comprehensive -- this text explores the "full range" of finite element methods used in engineering practice for actual applications in computer-aided design. It provides not only an introduction to finite element methods and the commonality in the various techniques, but explores state-of-the-art methods as well -- with a focus on what are deemed to become "classical techniques" -- procedures that will be "standard and authoritative" for finite element analysis for years to come. FEATURES: presents in sufficient depth and breadth elementary concepts AND advanced techniques in statics, dynamics, solids, fluids, linear and nonlinear analysis. emphasizes both the physical and mathematical characteristics of procedures. presents some important mathematical conditions on finite element procedures. contains an abundance of worked-out examples and various complete program listings. includes many exercises/projects that often require the use of a computer program.

All the steps involved in planning, executing, interpreting and applying the results from a modal test are described in straightforward terms. This edition has brought the previous book up to date by including all the new and improved techniques that have emerged during the 15 years since the first edition was written, especially those of signal processing and modal analysis. New topics are introduced, notable amongst them are the application of modal testing to rotating machinery and the use of scanning laser vibrometer.

In times of Industry 4.0 the digitalization of the value-chain becomes more and more important. The so-called digital twinallows simulations that are very close to reality. This book provides all necessary basics to perform simple as well as complex simulations with NX and Simcenter 3D (former NX CAE). It is aimed at design engineers, CAE engineers and engineering students. The following topics are covered in the book: -Motion Simulation (MBD) -Design Simulation (FEA, Nastran) -Simcenter/Advanced Simulation (FEA, CFD and EM) -Management of Calculation and Simulation Data (Teamcenter for Simulation) Starting off with brief theoretical introductions each chapter contains learning tasks of increasing difficulty.
