3D Static Structural Simulation: FreeCAD Gmsh PreProMax Workflow

#gmsh #freecad #prepromax

Follow a step-by-step guide from creating a 2D face in FreeCAD, exporting it to a STEP file, importing it into Gmsh for quadrilateral meshing, extruding the mesh into 3D, generating mesh layers, exporting to .inp format, and importing into PreProMax for static structural analysis. Explore the application of 3D hexahedral elements with defined material properties (Young's modulus: 200 GPa, Poisson ratio: 0.3), constraint setup, and pressure application to simulate deformation and stress. Gain insights into the complete workflow from CAD modeling to advanced structural simulation.
