Which CAD software should I use?

If you are looking for more advanced or specialized simulation and analysis, you may want to use other software and tools, such as ANSYS, SolidWorks Simulation, or SimScale. The fourth step is to prepare your CAD model for the simulation and analysis you have selected.

What is cad3a visualisation?

Visualisation of sample models available on CAD3A (from the top, model 1, 2, 3, 4 and 10), and of the obtained results from the developed services: the part visualisation (in the center), examples of classified parts and extracted interfaces (left side), examples of extracted patterns, linear (in blue) and circular (in red) (right side)

What is cad3a X3D?

CAD3A has been deployed on an Windows Apache server endowed with a PHP interpreter. The X3D generation service has been implemented as a pair of two pieces of code. The former is a python script exploiting SolidWorks ® API to convert the input STEP assembly file into a set of STL files, each of them representing a single part of the assembly.

What is CAD assembly?

The term “CAD assembly” refers to 3D models, generally employed in industrial engineering applications, whose representation scheme is usually the boundary representation (B-Rep). This representation is a de-facto standard in commercial CAD systems and provides an exact representation of the surfaces outlining the shape of 3D models.
