You can take advantage of all the parametric modeling tools to remove manufacturing details like cosmetic fillets and part numbers, remove unnecessary components and replace complex components with simple primitive representations. Basically, you can turn a fully featured part into a dumb primitive object for faster solves and better performance during solves. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The Simplify workspace is only accessible from inside of a Simulation study. \u00a0You must enter the Simulation workspace and select a study type, before you can select the Simplify button from the Toolbar. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">New for Ultimate!<\/span> Automated Simplification Tools and Multiple Simulation Models<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8358\" src=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/RemoveFeaturesPrimitiveClone.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"622\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re using Fusion 360 Ultimate, you\u2019ll get automated feature and face removal tools, primitive replacement tools and the ability to clone and create new Simulation models in the Simplify workspace. These tools will allow you to quickly simplify models and test alternatives geometries without having to make changes to your base design or redo your Simulation setups. Each Simulation model will allow you to create new or modify existing geometry, all while maintaining associativity to the original Fusion design and Simulation studies. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">New!<\/span> Seed and Boundary Selection Tool<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8359\" src=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/SeedBoundary-1024x570.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/SeedBoundary-1024x570.gif 1024w, https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/SeedBoundary-300x167.gif 300w, https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/fusion-360\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/SeedBoundary-768x427.gif 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will help you select all the surfaces that may make up an internal void, which is particularly valuable when simulating internal pressures on an enclosed design, for example, the flow path in a pump or valve. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can access the Seed and Boundary selection tool from the Select Panel on the toolbar.
