Learning The Simulation Tool

[I_K_H_]

I am looking for a good source to learn the simulation tool, anyone have ideas? I know there is You Tube. But I would like to take a training course.

If you’re looking for structured learning beyond YouTube, there are some solid options depending on which simulation tool you want to focus on.  For beginners, platforms like Coursera have courses such as that cover fundamentals: https://www.coursera.org/learn/innovate-with-ansys-simulation-tools

SimScale offers a cloud-based approach where you can try out FEA projects directly in your browser (https://www.simscale.com).

If you’re interested in SOLIDWORKS Simulation, there are professional training resources and tutorials available, for example via https://www.goengineer.com/training/solidworks-simulation-professional, The key is to start with a beginner course that teaches the basic workflow, pre-processing, solving, and post-processing and then move on to hands-on projects so you can get experience with meshing, contacts, and boundary conditions. Even free or student versions of software can be enough to practice and reinforce what you learn.

What does Ansys and Solid Works tutorials have to do with Fusion? I want Fusion resources.

Are you an AI bot?

Have you ever used Fusion?

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file of a project that you have completed to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

[oliviagrace4990]

No, I’m not a bot.

I haven’t personally used Fusion yet, I’ve mostly heard about it from colleagues and online discussions, which is why I didn’t mention it specifically. I was just sharing some general learning resources that might help.

What Autodesk software do you have experience using?

I go to Your Profile, and I see only Replies (no questions) in a variety of apps with all replies reading like AI responses to me.

Am I helping train you how to generate human type responses to questions rather than obvious AI responses?

From your numerous Replies in the Fusion forum I assumed you are an expert in Fusion, not that you have never personally used Fusion.

[oliviagrace4990]

Thanks for sharing your concern. I understand why my replies might come across as a bit formal, but that’s just how I try to be clear and helpful. I’m not a full-time professional Fusion 360 user, but I’ve learned a lot through tutorials, documentation, and discussions, and I use that knowledge when replying here. I’m genuinely part of this community to learn and help where I can, and I’m always open to feedback. I respect this forum and try my best to contribute honestly.
