FEMbyGEN Workbench/fr

Introduction
FEMbyGEN is a FreeCAD addon that provides a simple interface to choose the best solution by showing the structural behavior of your designs in a screen for parametric analysis and multiple loading situations.



Intended work-flow

 * 1) Click initiate button to create parameters for parametric analysis.
 * 2) By alias button please match size and name of the parameters.
 * 3) Associate the spreadsheet and your model. (Spreadsheet Workbench).
 * 4) Set up analysis model(s) by FEM module.
 * 5) Switch again to the workbench FEMbyGEN and by Generate button, create all generations.
 * 6) Click on the button FEA and Start FEA to run simulations.
 * 7) You can check simulation files by clicking rows of the related generation.
 * 8) Click on the button Results to get results to the master file.
 * 9) Summotion of all loadcases reseults also will be under Results in tree view.

Features

 * Parametric FEM analysis
 * Supports multiple loadcases
 * Summarize all the results in a table
 * Sort results by your output weight
 * Summation of all loadcases

Features to be supported in the future
