The simulation engine received better tools for defining laminate composite materials, tracking fiber orientation, and predicting failure across multiple layers.
One of the most celebrated features in SolidWorks 2015 was the advanced surface flattening tool. Prior to this version, flattening complex, non-analytical 3D surfaces (such as fabrics, leather, or stamped sheet metal) required expensive add-ons or tedious manual calculations. The 2015 edition automated this process, allowing users to: Flatten complex, doubly curved surfaces instantly.
