Hi Sam, integration to the FreeCAD with gui is still far (it is probable that Z88Aurora* will be sooner translated to English). Some help how to run it is below 1) create a special folder for your analysis 2) follow tutorial from pdf file https://github.com/fandaL/beso Currently it is not much comfo...

I didn't check penta15 properly. It works on the "code to crash" http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=14404&start=10#p133856 but still do not work on http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=14404#p133524 so import penta15 form frd still gives an error as we...

Although YouTube videos are nice this isn't what i was talking about. News about the FreeCAD software on popular (CAD or FOSS related) news sites is what i would consider promotional success. (...) Internet is deep ;) . From the portal of OpenOffice andLibreOffice users (in Czech): http://www.openo...

I squashed and rebased your commit and added a small fix (there was a bug in FemMeshTools.py too See commit https://github.com/berndhahnebach/FreeC ... eed25380d7) Since the crash has nothing to do with the module you added, we could go for a PullRequest with https://github.com/berndhahnebach/FreeC...

I did create an importer for another class of files (excel-spreadsheets). I got a short tip from yorik that it needs an "open"-function. So I used one of the importer available in the Draft-workbench to look up those functions. I had to define the "open"-function and the "i...

Ahh, squash the commits into one commit.

please check if I managed it in the right way

Have you tun flake8 at the code? Done. Only some lines are longer than 79 characters. Should I let the name ccxInpReader.py or change it to inpReader.py ? This is to create penta15 which currently gives mentioned error nodes15 = {1:[10,10,10],2:[0,0,10],3:[20,0,10],4:[10,10,0],5:[0,0,0], 6:[20,0,0]...

I used import of the mesh from .inp file to topology optimization, so it seemed not to be much difficult to import mesh also to FreeCAD. It works in the similar way as frd import, but I didn't know how to call it automatically when importing any file (user will need to chose if: import mesh or open...

add these lines before *CLOAD or *DLOAD card in .inp file (or if you don't want any other loads, use any force load and delete *CLOAD card with related numbers below it) *DLOAD Eall,GRAV,9810.,0.,0.,-1. Eall means all elements GRAV is key word for acceleration of 9810 units (FreeCAD uses N, MPa, mm,...
