Simulating the Stress in a Simple Tensile Structure in FreeCAD using CalculiX

[@azshark1942]

Please make some more videos on this subject. You were spot on with your instructions. Thank you for sharing this video. I make plastic parts on a 3D Printer and this is going to be very useful in my designing of my parts and choosing the correct materials and structure. I guess this is the best kept secret of FreeCad .......... Thanks again!

Hi, fine tutorial video about FEM. I think you should cleanup your FreeCAD user interface by removing the Pyton console and Report view out of sight. You can achieve that going to View menu and scrolling down to Panels untick them from the list. And if you want to avoid them at all cost (permanently) go to Edit menu - Preferences - General tab on the left- Report view on the top - untick all the options within the Output section. Another hint is the Gesture navigation mode instead of CAD or ThinkerCAD is very much handy to use. The View toolbar is much easy to use than the Navigation cube on the top right of the working space. I hope this will help you. Regards
