Merge parts in pycalculix and/or CalculiX

[kourosh2]

Justin,

First of all, thank you for the great piece of work. Nice job.

Is pycalculix capable of merging 2 geometries (say two 2D rectangles on top of each other)? If not do you know if CalculiX itself is capable of doing so?

Thanks
Kourosh

Hi Kourosh,
Thank you for using it.
Pycalculix is not able to do that.
However, you could use another tool like openscad, or the python shapely library https://pypi.org/project/Shapely/
and you could then export your results as dxf or iges and import the geometry into pycalculix.
