Design a cantilevered I-beam to carry a distributed load of 30 kN. Conduct a stress analysis of the original beam. The original cross section is shown to the right. Optimize the beam by determining the lowest cross sectional area subject to two design criteria: the lowest factor of safety can be 5 and the maximum deflection of the beam can be 75 mm. The student may vary the flange width and/or height. However, the width and depth of the upper and lower flanges MUST be equal in each design. The student may also vary the web width and/or height. The student will also develop a PowerPoint presentation of the results. Contributed by Jeffrey J. Brown, Washington.
This document describes how to install and apply service packs to COSMOSWorks, COSMOSFloWorks, and COSMOSMotion. Many installation methods are covered, including individual installations, silent installations, modifying installations, and administrative image installations.
Part One: "COSMOSFloWorks is used to identify and select the best heat sink shape for a main chip installed with other electronic components in an electronic enclosure." \r\n\r\nPart Two: "A piece electronic equipment has been designed that will be used on the exterior of buildings, and to protect it from the elements it has been well sealed.\r\n
This tutorial concurrently introduces you to COSMOSWorks software and the fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis through hands-on exercises. A number of projects are presented using commonly used parts to illustrate the analysis features of COSMOSWorks. Publish date: April, 2004

This lesson explores the use of SolidWorks and CosmosWorks to model and study fundamentals of fracture mechanics. This lesson will be part of Introduction to Material Science course taught at Sophomore/Junior Years at college level. The class will first find the results by conventional analytical methods and then we will find them using CosmosWorks (finite element analysis). Contributed by Emmanuel Enemuoh, Minnesota.
** White Paper ** Learn how to run up-front drop tests on your designs easily and quickly. This report shows how, with COSMOSWorks Analysis, setting up a drop test is just like setting up any other study. Email submission required.
