The software used in this simulation is IMPETUS AFEA. Try this website for that software http://www.impetus.no/?p=6. As far as i know you can't do simulation like this in SolidWorks.

well your question was not clear at first.
such a video simulation is not possible in solidworks. but there is another kind of animation.
after running your model, go to plot tools> animate> there you can save an AVI file. but not quite as you desired!

For the study named "Tensile test" just add a "fixed geometry" (fixtures adviser >Fixed geometry) on the opposite side of the force.
for the study named "study 2" just run your model! in the middle of the solving a message appears click "No" on the message.
(the message appears because There is one degree of freedom on the study)
