Get StartedThis is the most common analysis performed for verification and/or validation but does not mean that they are always simple in nature.
These have evolved to include complex interactions within the analysis (contacts, joints, composites) to linking with other physics (fluid-structure, electromagnetic-structure). Significant performance insight into a component and/or assembly can be obtained from a static simulation
