Tutorial 3A - Modeling

• Build a Master Model of the basket handle

• Create the upper & the lower parts from the Master Model

• Build the mechanical features on the both parts

• Get the both parts auto-updated after modifying the outlook of the master model

Tutorial 3B - Modeling

• Build the metal arm

• Build the basket 

• Add material texture onto all components

• Assemble components

Tutorial 3C - Analysis

• Simplify the model for analysis

• Create Meshes onto two components and create a connector between them

• Create boundary conditions & define properties

• Analyze displacements & stresses

Tutorial 3D - Analysis (By Nastran)

• Repeat the steps in Tutorial 3C with the use of Nastran

Tutorial 3E - Design Optimization

• Create a user parameter “volume”

• Run optimization to get the minimum volume of the metal arm with the smallest part deformation
