Visualizing results

You can process the outputs using Octave, however, the open-source software ParaView can be used to visualize the results produced by ONSAS (in vtk format).

The user can provide the geometry of the structure using GMSH's .msh format. GMSH is an open-source tool that allows to generate high-quality meshes.

Contributing

If you want to contribute you should create a fork and create a Pull Request in github.

Development tools

If you want to contribute any code it is recommended that you install miss-hit, to check the styling of the code before pushing. It is recommended but not mandatory to install poetry.

Doing this in linux's bash (see other OSs):

cd ONSAS/utils
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Then install poetry, install miss-hit and check

pip install poetry
make install
make format_check
