Results analysis

In the window that appears, select:

Click Process the data.

Using the console interface

Geometry creating, meshing, setting boundary conditions and materials can be performed using the console interface. Below is a link to the program code that allows you to perform the steps described above manual, you only need to specify the full path and name.
