Student Competition: Physical Modeling Training, Part 10: Importing CAD Models into SimMechanics

From the series: Student Competition: Physical Modeling Training

Learn to import CAD models into SimMechanics™ for dynamic simulations. You’ll discover how to visualize bodies with CAD geometries, export models from CAD software, and import CAD models into SimMechanics. You’ll also see the CAD import workflows that are available in SimMechanics. You’ll import the suspension assembly from a SolidWorks model.

SimMechanics enables you to automatically generate SimMechanics block diagrams from CAD models. This will enable you to do data logging analysis, dynamic simulation, control design, parameter optimization, and automatic C/C++ code generation using an existing CAD model.
