This book is written for first-time FEA users (in general) and MECHANICA users (in particular). After a brief introduction to finite element modeling, the tutorial introduces the major concepts behind the use of Pro/MECHANICA to perform Finite Element Analysis of parts. These include: modes of operation, element types, design studies (analysis, sensitivity studies, organization), and the major steps for setting up a model (materials, loads, constraints, analysis type), studying convergence of the solution, and viewing the results. Both 2D and 3D problems are treated. The tutorial uses a click-by-click format to show the command sequence exactly as performed by the user for a wide variety of models and design studies.

Pro/MECHANICA Tutorial Structure Wildfire 3.0

The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce users to some of the more advanced features, commands, and functions in Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0. This book is suitable for users who understand the features of Pro/ENGINEER covered in Roger Toogood's Pro/ENGINEER Tutorial. The style and approach of the previous tutorial have been maintained. Each lesson concentrates on a few of the major topics and the text attempts to explain the Why's of the commands in addition to a concise step-by-step description of new command sequences. The material covered in this tutorial represents an overview of what is felt to be commonly used and important functions. These include customization of the working environment, advanced feature creation (sweeps, round sets, draft and tweaks, UDF's, patterns and family tables), layers, Pro/PROGRAM, and advanced drawing and assembly functions. Pro/ENGINEER Advanced Tutorial consists of eight lessons. A continuing theme throughout the lessons is the creation of parts for a medium-sized modeling project. The project consists of a small three-wheeled utility cart. Project parts are given at the end of each lesson that utilize functions presented earlier in that lesson . Final assembly is performed in the last lesson. Table of Contents 1. The Pro/E Interface and Customization 2. Helical and Variable Section Sweeps 3. Advanced Rounds and Tweaks 4.

Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0 Mechanica Tutorial (Structure/Thermal) introduces new users to finite element analysis using Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica and how it can be used to analyze a variety of problems. The tutorial lessons cover the major concepts and frequently used commands required to progress from a novice to an intermediate user level. The commands are presented in a click-by-click manner using simple examples and exercises that illustrate a broad range of the analysis types that can be performed. In addition to showing the command usage, the text will explain why certain commands are being used and, where appropriate, the relation of commands to the overall FEA philosophy are explained. Moreover, since error analysis is an important skill, considerable time is spent exploring the created models so that users will become comfortable with the debugging phase of modeling.

Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0 Mechanica Tutorial (Structure/Thermal)

The eleven lessons in this tutorial introduce students to Pro/ENGINEER's Wildfire 4.0 design capabilities. The tutorial covers the major concepts and frequently used commands required to advance from a novice to an intermediate user level. Major topics include part and assembly creation, and creation of engineering drawings. Also illustrated are the major functions that make Pro/ENGINEER a parametric solid modeler. 
Although the commands are presented in a click-by-click manner, an effort has been made, in addition to showing/illustrating the command usage, to explain why certain commands are being used and the relation of feature selection and construction to the overall part design philosophy. Moreover, since error recovery is an important skill, considerable time is spent exploring the created models (in fact, intentionally inducing some errors), so that users will become comfortable with the debugging phase of model creation. 
At the end of each lesson is a short quiz reviewing the new topics covered in that chapter. Each lesson concludes with a number of simple exercise parts that can be created using new commands taught in that lesson. In addition to these a project is also included that consists of a number of parts that are introduced with the early lessons and finally assembled at the end. The tutorials in this textbook cover the following topics: 
Introduction to the program and its operation: 
<ul>
<li>The features used in part creation </li> <li>Modeling utilities</li> <li>Creating engineering drawings</li> <li>Creating assemblies and assembly drawings</li> </ul>
Table of Contents Introduction to Pro/ENGINEER 1. User Interface, View Controls and Model Structure 2. Creating a Simple Object (Part I) 3. Creating a Simple Object (Part II) 4.

The eleven lessons in this tutorial introduce you to the design capabilities of Creo Parametric 1.0. The tutorial covers the major concepts and frequently used commands required to advance from a novice to an intermediate user level. Major topics include part and assembly creation, and creation of engineering drawings. Also illustrated are the major functions that make Creo Parametric a parametric solid modeler. These topics are further demonstrated in the video files that come with every book. 
Although the commands are presented in a click-by-click manner, an effort has been made, in addition to showing/illustrating the command usage, to explain why certain commands are being used and the relation of feature selection and construction to the overall part design philosophy. Simply knowing where commands can be found is only half the battle. As is pointed out numerous times in the text, creating useful and effective models of parts and assemblies requires advance planning and forethought. 
Moreover, since error recovery is an important skill, considerable time is spent exploring the created models. In fact, some errors are intentionally induced so that users will become comfortable with the debugging phase of model creation. 
At the end of each lesson is a short quiz reviewing the new topics covered in that chapter. Following the quiz are several simple exercise parts that can be created using new commands taught in that lesson. In addition to these an ongoing project throughout the book is also included.
