Next steps
- [Instructor] So congratulations on working through to the end of the course. Now it's time to think about some next steps. I hope that shells, beams, and trusses are useful new elements types to add to your FEA knowledge. What I recommend now is to experiment. In particular, try different starting points, surface, sheet metal, weldment, and solid geometry. The more sophisticated you can become within solid works, I think the more you're gonna get out of these particular types of elements. Develop an integrated workflow between geometry manipulation and meshing. There's really no right way of doing it. Depending on your particular type of structures, you're gonna find different variations on the workflows I presented that will be most useful to you. Look out for more FEA courses from me coming along in the future. Now a little bit about me. My online presence. This is my website and here I present a lot of free FEA resource material, for hints and tips, links to my e-learning…
