Is there a way to simulate surface hardening in SW simulation? I'm sure I would get relatively realistic numbers if I split my part into two and had a thin hard part on top of the rest of the soft part, but was wondering if there was some magical way to do this where I didn't have to split my part.
Hi Matt,
The sort of change in material properties you would get from quenching steel would necessitate the modeling of an outer shell body which you would apply those different material properties to. There isn't currently a way to have the software do this sort of material hardening calculation for you.
