======Basic Operation======
  - Run Grasshopper by typing **Grasshopper** at the Rhino command line\\ 
  - Navigate to the Intact.Simulation Toolbar in Grasshopper
  - Select a **Solver** for the the physics of interest (stress, thermal, modal)
  - Add **[[wiki:sns:intactgh:components|components]]** and assign [[wiki:sns:intactgh:materials|material]]
  - Apply **boundary conditions** ([[wiki:sns:intactgh:restraints|restraints]] and [[wiki:sns:intactgh:loads|loads]])
  - Click **Solve** to compute simulation results
  - View [[wiki:sns:intactgh:results|results]] by connecting the results viewer

=====Stress Simulation quick start=====
<WRAP group>
<WRAP half column>
  - Insert [[stress_solver|stress solver block]]
  - Insert [[wiki:sns:intactgh:solver_settings|solver settings block]] to set resolution or grid size
  - Insert simulation [[components|component block]]
    - Specify geometry
    - Insert and connect [[materials|material]] block
    - Connect components to stress solver
  - Insert [[restraints|restraint block]]
    - Specify surfaces to restrain
    - Connect restraints to stress solver
  - Insert [[surface_loads|surface load block]] of choice (vector load shown)
    - Specify surfaces to load
    - Specify load particulars (such as magnitude or direction)
    - Connect loads to stress solver
  - Click [Solve] on stress solver component (if Boolean is toggled "True" it will solve automatically)
  - Insert [[results|visualization block]]
    - Connect output of stress solver
    - Right click to select solution quantity of interest
