Are the simulation results approbed by ASME?

I have this specific question that is if the results that I get by using Simulation in SolidWorks are approbed or certified by ASME, meaning that ASME will accept that calculations as correct or acceptable?

Thanks!

Hi Luis,

Only if the error level is 5 or lower.
Normal engineering is 10 of lower.
This must also include formulas and results as stated in VIII section 2 part 5.
Look at PVeng's website for some very good examples of what is required when using design by analyze.
