CAD Architecture, CAE Reasoning, and GD&T Foundations

Map Onshape modeling operations to the corresponding CATIA V5/V6 Part Design, GSD, Assembly Design, and Draft Analysis commands.

Define physically defensible loads, constraints, contacts, and material data for a linear-static component FEA.

Evaluate mesh convergence, stress concentrations, displacement, yield margin, and a target safety factor of at least 2.0.

Interpret mold-flow outputs for fill pattern, pressure, weld lines, air traps, volumetric shrinkage, fiber orientation, and warpage.

Establish a functional datum reference frame and apply surface profile and position-at-MMC controls using ASME Y14.5 and ISO 1101 conventions.
