SW simulation: measuring shrink fit torque

Simulation Generality
1

Hello

In order to save time during real tests that are tedious to implement and destroy the parts, I would like to simulate the torque that can be exerted on two cylindrical parts.

It is an asynchronous electric motor, the package wound and shrink-wrapped in its housing. I have the CAD models, is it possible to do a simulation of this type on solidworks 2014? If so, does anyone have a tutorial or indications to provide me?

Thank you in advance, Maxime

Hello

There is a tutorial in the Solidworks SImulation Help: Tight Fit of Two Rings
