Apps

Your 3DEXPERIENCE platform roles must provide access to the following apps:

  • 3DPlay
  • 3DSpace
  • 3DSwym
  • Collaborative Lifecycle
  • Simulation Job Monitor
  • My Simulations
  • Part Design (or any preferred modeling app)
  • Performance Study
  • Physics Results Explorer
  • Project Planning
    Note: This example showcases Project Planning, which is only available on the cloud. If you are using an on-premises installation of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, then you can complete this example by using Collaborative Tasks in place of Project Planning. For more information on Collaborative Tasks, see the Collaborative Tasks User Guide.
  • Simulation Review
  • Structural Scenario Creation or Mechanical Scenario Creation
  • Web Notes

Release

This example was developed on the R2020x FD01 version of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and is expected to be compatible with later releases. This example is designed to be completed on a cloud installation but can also be completed on-premises by using Collaborative Tasks in place of Project Planning.

Sample Data

The Knowledge Base article Sample Data: Dashboard Creation and Use in an Engineering Workflow provides the 3D XML data and documents used in the example.

Background

You should be familiar with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and 3DDashboards. You should also have a basic understanding of CATIA 3D Modeling Apps and SIMULIA Simulation Apps , as well as their application in an engineering workflow. In addition, you should have an installation of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on your machine, and you should know how to assign roles to your account to grant access to the apps required for this example. You should also know how to install the required native apps.

Guide Description
3DEXPERIENCE Platform Describes the key concepts and capabilities of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, such as the Compass, 6WTags, 3DSearch, and 3DNotification.
3DEXPERIENCE Native Apps Describes the user interface and tools common to all native apps. This guide complements 3DEXPERIENCE Platform.
Using Dashboards Describes the use of dashboards to bring information from diverse sources into customizable web pages. You can organize and present your content, and you can share experiences with others using dashboards and widgets.

If you have a 3DEXPERIENCE ID, you can find additional assistance as follows:

  • The Program Directory includes the latest information about new features and known issues.
  • The Knowledge Base provides question-and-answer articles for a wide range of content. You can search the Knowledge Base for information relevant to your app.

Information about working with simulations and processes is also available in the 3DEXPERIENCE section of the SIMULIA Community. The SIMULIA Community is the place to find the latest resources for SIMULIA software and to collaborate with other users.
