🎬What Software do Mechanical Engineers NEED to Know: • What Software do Mecha...
I made a video last year covering all the important software that mechanical engineers and engineering students need to know. In this video, I want to focus on essential computer-aided engineering (CAE) simulation software, including finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and multiphysics software, that every mechanical engineer must learn. There is an overwhelming number of software available (Solidworks, Ansys, Abaqus, Autocad, etc.), but which one should you invest your time learning? You may not know that CAE simulation is one the scarcest and most in-demand skills that employers look for in mechanical engineers. After watching this video, you'll know exactly which software to learn, what FEA & CFD simulation is for, why it's so important, and how to approach learning simulation.

    There's no video like this on KZread! CAE is an important skill that's often overlooked by students because universities only scratch the surface. I joined a research group to become an expert at simulation, which helped me get a handful of high-paying job offers.

    Loved the emphasis on not just knowing how to use the software but understanding the math and physics behind simulations. It’s a crucial reminder that tools are only as good as our understanding of what they're doing. Similar to what I try to tell mechanical engineers in my videos.

    Hey! Loving the videos so far and definitely hits the spot when it comes to Mechanical Engineering videos on KZread. I graduated in late 2022 in Mechanical Engineering and recently graduated in a Masters in Robotics and was wondering if you could do a video on how we could study from the textbooks you have recommended and that we used when we are university in an efficient way so we one can brush up on their knowledge quickly. Any tips and tricks would be helpful as I always find myself going through a book front to back :')

    Would these softwares be beneficial for a layman who doesn't have formal mechanical engineering training? I only have calculus up to calculus 3, multivariable calculus. Physics I at university. At the very least i think itd be cool to apply it if i were to have a mechanical engineering project come up Edit: Also not sure I caught this properly, the simulation software helps with design of experiments?

    You have what’s needed to learn CAE fundamentals given you’ve taken calculus 1-3 and physics. CAE can be used to obtain DOE outputs, but you will still need to setup one yourself.
