Deformation

3D Design Volume Model

Hello 

 

I would like to know if we can animate a bottle that crashes, for example. that is to say, to show the stages of transformation of an object or a part. 

 

Thank you

Hello, yes this is one of the possibilities of SolidWorks Simulation which is available with the premium version of SolidWorks only. Watch this video: Setting-Up & Running a SolidWorks Simulation Study: http://youtu.be/LOa3MXH9P4c

You can do a lot with solidworks 

To do this, it is necessary to understand the log  operating system as well as all logs

but it's not a log to make animation at the base there are specific logs for that

If you create a 1 m line it is a straight line with 2 start and end points

If you create 10 10 cm straight lines and lay them one after the other you will also have a 1 m straight line

This 1 m line can be reduced since you can put these 10 cm line in accordion

The same goes for curves that can change section while keeping their length

Thanks .PL and GT22 always there to help, but there you go, the simulation of .PL is relevant, but what I would like to know is a deformation of a body (bottle) in an assembly, because I would like to simulate the crushing of celle_ci in an assembly animation. 

 

Thank you

give + ref screenshots so that we can help you more

A picture is worth 1000 words

so 2 images you X 2 ;-)

it's like all your questions that you post the more ref you will give understandable by all

the more answers you'll get

You want a deformed bottle in an assembly, how do you assemble your bottle and on what and with what?

These are the questions to ask yourself and to define before thinking about creating

See this image  of a bottle quickly done among others with the deformed tool

See attached file for example

See also this other flex tool

Traction tool

there are a lot of possibilities on SW you just have to look

Hello

If you're looking for good realism, you should go for specialized software because Solidworks will give you images like gt22 attached, it will create a uniform deformation on your bottle but not a very good realism...

Afterwards, as gt22 says, there are also other clarifications to be made so that we can answer well. Is it a plastic bottle that crashes between two bodies? A glass bottle that falls and crashes to the floor? Are you looking to represent a uniform or realistic deformation? What is it to do?
