Lesson: Challenge 1

Challenge: Create a Static Stress Simulation to analyze a model. Based on the results make
design changes to increase the performance of the design. Weekly challenges are ungraded
and a chance to explore design ideas and software options using the skills learned through this
course. Follow the loose requirements and explore the design space to update and create a
design that meets a certain performance criterion.

• Set up a Static Stress Simulation.


• Evaluate 3 different material choices for the design and determine which one performs
best.
• Simulation study setup will include the large inner diameter face fixed with 50lb loads
applied to each boss inner diameter pulling outward from the origin.
• Explore design changes to get the safety factor close to 4.0.
