Adds a Mystran solver for linear static structural analysis. Mystran is a lightweight, fast open-source structural solver derived from NASTRAN. Use it for quick linear structural checks when CalculiX is not installed.

Capabilities

  • Linear static structural analysis
  • Shell and beam elements
  • NASTRAN-format bulk data input

When to use Mystran

  • Quick linear static checks.
  • When CalculiX is not available.
  • When a NASTRAN-format workflow is preferred.
