[edit] Preprocessing
Use AutodeskTM AutoCad®, and the supplied nemesis toolbar (nemesis.cui) and dxf template (template.dxf) to create the model's geometry and assign materials and boundary conditions. Export the model as *.dxf file. (You can of course use any other program to produce the appropriate dxf file).
[edit] Solving
Import the *.dxf file and define analysis options using SciTe. Any text editor can be used but you may want to take advantage of predefined properties for SciTe (syntax highlighting, auto-completion, help as you type, error handling etc), distributed with the nemesis source and binary files.
[edit] Post processing
Finally you may either inspect the sql compliant database produced using SQLite or you can use any visualization application, to view the vtk files (here ParaView is used).
[edit] Files used
- wrench.dxf
- wrench.slv
- wrench.vtk (Quite large to be attached.)
