CAD file created by SolidView, a 2D and 3D computer-aided design software; saves the geometry and measurements for a part or an assembly; used by structural engineers, technical illustrators, manufacturing engineers, and other professionals for saving CAD designs. SVD files can be viewed with SolidView/Lite, a free program provided by Solid Concepts. The free software also provides the capability to measure the design.
Data file created by Polytec scanning vibrometer devices, which are used for measuring the durability of objects that are subjected to stresses and strains; contains a log of the data collected during a stress test; provided as input to PSV Software, a program that visualizes the stress results. Scanning vibrometers are used by test and simulation engineers to measure structural vibrations.
The SVD file extension is associated with Microsoft Word, a powerful authoring program that gives you the ability to create and share documents by combining a comprehensive set of writing tools with the easy-to-use Microsoft Office Fluent user interface, which is part of Microsoft Office. The .svd files are used some versions Microsoft Word for auto-backup of document files.
