Fusion 360 brings CAD, CAM and CAE together in the cloud. It\u2019s an integrated, connected, and accessible platform built for the new ways products are being designed and made. New simulation capabilities (and other new features described below) all come with Fusion 360 right \u201cout of the box.\u201d The capabilities are fully integrated into the Fusion 360 workflow \u2013 no complex time-consuming set-up is required. Users get actionable results literally in seconds. There\u2019s also no additional cost \u2013 Fusion 360 still costs just $25 per month for an annual subscription, and is still free to students, educators, hobbyists and start-ups.* <strong> <a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b01b7c7d03c1c970b-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b01b7c7d03c1c970b image-full img-responsive\" title=\"Brake sim\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b01b7c7d03c1c970b-800wi\" alt=\"Brake sim\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a> <\/strong> <strong>Prototyping gets smarter with simulation <\/strong> Simulation in Fusion 360 allows users to perform both linear stress and modal analysis. Users will be able to define materials and add constraints, and add loads to solve for weaknesses in their assemblies, all while staying within a single design environment. By pinpointing flaws sooner in the design process, costly prototypes and time-consuming revisions can be dramatically reduced. \u201cSimulation traditionally takes multiple software tools and hours of work. Not so with Fusion 360.\u00a0 We made it powerful, but drop-dead simple. And by integrating simulation directly within the design and engineering workflow, users can not only build more viable parts with fewer iterations, but they can also develop intuition and expertise to reach validation more quickly,\u201d said Kevin Schneider, Director of Fusion 360 at Autodesk. \u201cWe see this update as the next critical step in making Fusion 360 the most innovative integrated platform for developing products, from concept all the way to fabrication.\u201d Additional simulation capabilities such as thermal and fatigue analysis will come in future product updates. <strong>\u00a0<\/strong> <strong>Enhanced features for team collaboration and productivity<\/strong> Simulation isn\u2019t the only thing coming with this month\u2019s update. Team collaboration in Fusion 360 gets a boost with real-time multi-user design review, improved commenting, the ability to move projects across hubs, and an improved <a title=\"A360\" href=\"http:\/\/autodesk360.com\" target=\"_blank\">A360<\/a> experience. Regardless of the\u00a0complexity\u00a0of a project, collaborating in Fusion 360 is now more seamless, simple, and integrated. Instead of emailing static images or cumbersome screen shares, users can now share a link with remote teammates or stakeholders, who can view an active model live in a web browser as it is manipulated in real-time. \u00a0It\u2019s the way product development across distributed teams was always meant to be. Drawings in Fusion 360 will also be enhanced, allowing users to draw associative centerlines and center marks in addition to aligning and renumbering balloons. Lastly, a more robust set of keyboard shortcuts are being introduced, making it easier to move through the design process. The shortcuts being added will include gestures such as extruding, filleting, and sketching dimensions.
