In this tutorial, we have provided a comprehensive guide to using the Femap API to automate finite element analysis. We have covered basic Femap API concepts, created a simple Femap model, run an analysis, and retrieved results. With this tutorial, you should be able to get started with using the Femap API to automate your finite element analysis workflows.
import femapi # Open the model model = femapi.OpenModel("simple_beam.mod") # Create a new analysis analysis = model.Analyses.Create() # Set the analysis type analysis.Type = "Static" # Run the analysis analysis.Run() # Get the analysis results results = analysis.Results # Print the results print(results.Displacements) femap api tutorial
The Femap API is a set of programming interfaces that allow developers to interact with Femap programmatically. It provides a way to access Femap’s functionality, such as creating and modifying models, running analyses, and retrieving results. The API is based on the Microsoft COM (Component Object Model) architecture and can be accessed using programming languages such as Visual Basic, C++, and Python. In this tutorial, we have provided a comprehensive
In this example, we will create a simple Femap model using the API. We will use Python as our programming language. import femapi # Open the model model = femapi
In this example, we will run a static analysis on the model we created in Step 1.
