5. OVERVIEW

7. Comparison of Results
Abaqus SolidWorks

8. DISCUSSIONS And COMPARISON
• User interface : better in SolidWorks
• Operating Systems : Abaqus has support in
Linux and Windows, SW has support only in
Windows
• Tutorial : Both have very good tutorial
• Website and online documentation : Both
have extensive documentations, similar
websites

9. Continued.
• Modeling capabilities : Better in SW
• Material Definition : You need to define
material in Abaqus
• Units : No units system in Abaqus
• Analysis : Better in Abaqus
• Report Generation : Easier and advanced in
Abaqus
