Scan&Solve Pro
The Scan&Solve™ plugin is developed by Intact Solutions for Rhinoceros© (V4 SR8 or V5 32-bit), by Robert McNeel & Associates, to perform linear static (structural) analysis on solid models constructed in or imported into Rhino. Scan&Solve™ is a meshfree finite element analysis method based on a patented technology that is explained in this fairly technical white paper.
The integration with Rhino is complete and seamless: no meshing or preprocessing (meshing, simplification, healing, translating, etc.) is needed. No prior knowledge of analysis or finite elements is required.
Unlike Scan&Solve 2014, Scan&Solve Pro allows stress simulation on assemblages of multiple components in bonded contact with each component comprised of a different material. Furthermore, each Rhino document can contain a collection of simulation scenarios, each comprised of its own collection of components, materials, restraints, loads, and simulation settings.
