It is often helpful to simulate the mechanical and thermal behavior of robot parts. However, simulations usually focus on just one or two types of mechanical or thermal motion or force for simplicity. For example, one might simulate the amount a spring stretches when a given force is applied. This category of simulations is often referred to as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for the computer algorithm used.

Fusion 360 has some FEA capabilities built in. For more complex analyses, we sometimes use ANSYS.
