Relative humidity is a necessary parameter in many engineering applications and accurately simulating its effects can influence HVAC system and building designs, environmental control systems, thermal management, and electronics cooling. SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation provides options to account for relative humidity in computational fluid dynamics simulations thus enabling more accurate and realistic modeling of thermal and fluid […]

In SOLIDWORKS Electrical, generating an accurate bill of materials (BOM) is crucial for ensuring precise material estimates and minimizing waste. However, raw length values often include decimal points, which may not be ideal for manufacturing and purchasing. To standardize lengths, configuring the bill of material to round up length can be a practical approach. This […]

The SOLIDWORKS Installation Manager is a lightweight application used to download and install all of the SOLIDWORKS products. This can be downloaded by logging into the SOLIDWORKS Downloads website with a 3DEXPERIENCE ID. The 3DEXPERIENCE ID used must be associated with an account with an active subscription. Based on the license information entered and selected […]

3DEXPERIENCE offers pre-built packages to allow organizations to expand inside the 3DEXPERIENCE platform gradually over time. The platform is a very expansive ecosystem of tools and attempting to implement too much, too quickly can offer more problems than benefits. The 3DEXPERIENCE Cloud PLM Standard Offer is a common next step to take on your cloud […]

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform offers multiple options for naming your models to ensure unique identifiers for your data. These options range from manual entry to automated numbering systems using formula-driven attributes and counters. When initially saved to the platform, a title is defined for the file and stored as an attribute used for for searching and […]

How to move a window that is off screen Ever find yourself asking, “Hey!  Where did my window go?” or, “Why is my window off the edge of the screen?” Frustratingly, some SOLIDWORKS window or dialog box has been inconveniently located out of reach.  It’s either partly or completely off the screen.  Work grinds to […]

Have you ever needed to change the password of the Microsoft SQL Server System Administrator (SA) account? Maybe the password has been lost or the person in charge of keeping it left the company? We will discuss the three most common ways to change the password and get back into your Microsoft SQL SA account. […]

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides many advantages for collaboration within your team. SOLIDWORKS Cloud Services includes cloud-based data management making it easier to work on projects with colleagues or access your data on the go. SOLIDWORKS Connected or traditional SOLIDWORKS combined with Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS gives a direct link between SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform […]

After a night filled with magicians, stilt walkers, and lots of cotton candy at the carnival-themed Party on the Plaza on day two of 3DEXPERIENCE World 2025, we entered the morning of day three ready to learn from the experts presenting on Wednesday. Starting the Day off Strong The final day of 3DEXPERIENCE World is […]
