| 11:01.39 | dhpeterson | hi there ... anyone about to answer a quick qn? |
| 11:02.39 | dhpeterson | i am wondering whether there is any integration between brlcad and a FEM/FEA tool |
| 11:02.42 | dhpeterson | open source or otherwise |
| 11:03.02 | dhpeterson | i am completely new to brlcad |
| 11:11.57 | clock__ | what is FEM/FEA? |
| 11:12.05 | clock__ | finite element analysis? |
| 11:12.22 | clock__ | like calculate bending etc.? |
| 11:18.50 | dhpeterson | hi |
| 11:18.54 | dhpeterson | yes, finite element |
| 11:19.11 | dhpeterson | stress calculation specifically, but bending or displacement also would be interesting |
| 11:19.16 | dhpeterson | :) |
| 11:23.02 | clock__ | what free software tools are for this? |
| 11:24.18 | dhpeterson | there are a few FEA solvers |
| 11:24.24 | dhpeterson | none are great |
| 11:24.29 | dhpeterson | z88 looks interesting |
| 11:24.46 | dhpeterson | you can integrate it with DXF (autocad) from what I understand |
| 11:24.50 | dhpeterson | and brl-cad exports DXF |
| 11:24.54 | dhpeterson | again, from what I understand |
| 11:25.28 | dhpeterson | FElt is another free FEM solver |
| 11:25.33 | dhpeterson | but it may only do 2D, not sure |
| 11:25.38 | dhpeterson | z88 is 3D |
| 11:25.58 | dhpeterson | I think it would be interesting to take the z88 code (GPL) and inegrate it into brlcad |
| 11:26.05 | dhpeterson | or at least build a bridge |
| 11:26.22 | dhpeterson | but i am talking thru my ^#% as I have not got the experience with BRL to know |
| 11:26.45 | dhpeterson | ... |
| 11:26.52 | dhpeterson | i must apologise, i have to go now |
| 11:26.57 | dhpeterson | i will try to check back later |
| 11:27.06 | dhpeterson | or i can be reached on dhpeterson@gmail.com if you wish to follow up |
| 11:27.16 | dhpeterson | gtg |
| 11:40.25 | fenn | yeesh z88 is 22MBG |
| 11:40.28 | fenn | er 22 MB |
| 11:42.45 | fenn | "kompakt und schnell" mein ass |
| 12:48.16 | learner | fea integration is something being worked on, but there currently exists no such direct solving inside of brl-cad |
| 12:48.36 | learner | ~x de en kompakt und schnell |

| 23:34.10 | AchiestDragon | hmm , is there a bug in the raytracer or does it not do shadows ? |
| 23:34.14 | AchiestDragon | http://www.whipy.demon.co.uk/snapshot6.png |
| 23:52.01 | ``Erik | o.O |
| 23:52.08 | ``Erik | which lighting model did you use? |
| 23:52.44 | AchiestDragon | tryed it with the full and the photonmap renders same with both |
| 23:53.00 | AchiestDragon | that screenshot is a full render |
| 23:53.26 | AchiestDragon | just wating for another photonmap one to compleate then will take another screenshot |
| 23:54.50 | ``Erik | I know I've seen m35.g throw shadows |
| 23:55.14 | ``Erik | but I'm not really a brlcad user, I just kinda code on it o.O mebbe you need to define an explicit light? |
| 23:55.22 | AchiestDragon | is wondering if its because the object is a single bot |
| 23:56.06 | ``Erik | hrmmm |
| 23:56.18 | ``Erik | try putting a box or sphere on a plane ? |
| 23:58.21 | AchiestDragon | http://www.whipy.demon.co.uk/snapshot7.png |
| 23:58.36 | AchiestDragon | photon maped one , still now shadows |
| 23:59.56 | AchiestDragon | more concerned with shadows cast from top tracks and sprocket wheels to the lower tracks , as i have not put nay ground plane into the model |
