Happy New Year 2024 – fatigue.pro

Thanks to all for a crazy year 2023 and say hello to the new year 2024. May it be even more colorful and exciting than the FEM calculation of the numbers in FreeCAD.

I reused my model from last year and rerun the calculation in the actual FreeCAD version 0.21.1.

2024 as 3D mesh and boundary conditions in FEM workbench in FreeCAD and 2023 as shadow 3D model — Number of year 2024 and 2023 created as 3D model in FreeCAD and calculated in the integrated FEM workbench.

It’s crazy how many topics I’ve published here this year.
