SolidWorks 2013 makes 3D modeling easier.In addition, users can now control models’ materials via a design table. You’ve been able to configure dimensions and color but not materials until now ...

Solid modeling is great for visualizing ideas but it's often misapplied in finite-element analysis.

SOLIDWORKS MBD provides engineers with a 3D tool for model-based design that improves technical communication, accelerates design and manufacturing processes and saves production time and costs.

A mathematical technique for representing solid-appearing objects. Surface modeling is a more complex method for representing objects than wireframe modeling, but not as sophisticated as solid ...

A Michigan Tech student’s 3D model of an iconic Upper Peninsula iron mine helps researchers visualize and measure the energy storage potential that awaits in abandoned hard-metal mines.
