Salome-Meca Tutorials by Kees Wouters

Using partitions & compounds in Salome-Meca

When you need to apply different material properties to different parts of a mesh, the most efficient method is to create partitions in your model to produce a so-called compound object. This tutorials explains you how to do it in details.

Defining Mesh groups using TUI scripts

by JMB

Here we will show some rapid ways to group nodes or elements using Python scripts (TUI - Text User Interface) that are much faster (10 times or more) and more flexible compared to using the GUI methods

FEA data exchange between Salomé and Calculix/Abaqus: MedAba project

by Otto Ernst Bernhardi

This project aims at developing a file conversion tool to facilitate the exchange of FEA meshes between Salome MED format and Calculix (link) / Abaqus INP format.

This software is developed by Otto Ernst Bernhardi and is provided "as is" without warranty.

FEA data exchange: UNV2X / X2UNV project

This project aims at developing a set of file conversion tools & libraries in order to facilitate the bi-directionnal exchange of FEA data between open-source CAE softwares.

The file format chosen here to create this basic data transfer layer is the I-Deas Universal File Format (also called UNV or UFF) that is already widely used in both commercial & free CAE softwares.
