Enter Environment and Create a Simulation

You enter the Stress Analysis environment from the assembly, part, or sheet metal environments.

Enter the environment and create a simulation:

1. Open the model you want to analyze. By default you are in the modeling environment.
2. On the ribbon, click Environments tab Begin panel, click Stress Analysis .

   The Stress Analysis tab displays.

3. On the ribbon, in the Manage panel Create Simulation .

   You can create multiple simulations within the same document. Each simulation can use different materials, constraints, and loads.

4. Specify the simulation properties. Specify a name, type of simulation, and on the Model State tab, the model representation to use for the simulation.
   
5. Click OK. The new simulation populates the browser with analysis nodes.
