======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=====
- 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
