Field notes
The homepage says touching parts are treated as welded and aligned holes as bolted; users choose restraints and loads on faces before solving. A 17-part gantry example is reported as converging in 21 seconds on a 16 GB laptop, and the page links verification material covering 16 cases, including NAFEMS LE1 and LE10. The solver labels convergence and flags weld-root stress peaks as singular rather than reporting them as real.
