FEM

 * FreeCAD generates a input file in Abacus format starts CalculiX (better CCX = CalculiX CrunchiX = The solver of Calculix)
 * FreeCAD reads the results
 * On Linux Processhandling of CCX is missing therefore CCX has to be started manually

Windows

 * Installed vConverged Calculix Pachage which includes CCX (Solver), CGX (graphical Pre- and Postprocessor) SciTE (Editor with Syntaxhighlighting and Integration for making an analysis or start CGX)
 * Includes WindowsHelpFile of the official Manual --> C:\Program Files (x86)\bConverged\common\help\bConverged.chm
 * SciTE --> load the *.inp file --> Tools --> Solve
 * Compare the results with FreeCAD (compare the textfiles) --> Yeah they are nearly identical !!!
 * Path in Windows is shown in FreeCAD --> C:\Users\bhb\AppData\Local\Temp\FreeCAD_Doc_SOMEREALLYWILDNUMBER\FemAnl_c6c0

NSET and CLOAD

 * node set FemConstraintForce which includes a list of nodes

*NSET,NSET=FemConstraintForce 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, all node of the set


 * First line:
 * *CLOAD
 * Enter any needed parameters and their value.
 * Following line:
 * Node number or node set label.
 * Degree of freedom.
 * Magnitude of the load

*CLOAD FemConstraintForce,1,0.0 FemConstraintForce,2,0.0 FemConstraintForce,3,3333.3333333333335


 * Test
 * Line 1042- Line 998 + 1 = 45 nodes * 3333.3333333333335 N = 150000 N
