This video is an introductory video to NaxToView and where the different parts of the interface are explained. In the video it is also explained that you can change the order of the toolbar as you want and that the windows of the interface are floating and can be moved inside the Dock. Another thing that is explained is how to create windows and views, and how they are reflected in the model tree.
This video explains the steps to follow to create images with NaxToView. NaxToView allows you to save images as a file or by copying them to the clipboard. You can choose the background color of the image and select the format in which you want to save it, either jpg or png. It also allows you to create an xml file with the parameters that define the image. This option will be very useful in tools like NaxToDoc.
This video shows how to load a model and how to manage a model inside the 3D window in NaxToView. It also explains how the Model Tree shows us the different parts of the model by: Entities, properties, materials, materials, parts, element types (CQUAD4 or CTRIA3) and by connectors and that these can be hidden or viewed. And, in addition, the view tool, which is inside the toolbar, is explained. Where the different types of view, image backgrounds, etc. are shown.
The video explains how to use the selection tool in NaxToView. This tool is divided in two: What we are going to select and what we are going to do with what we have selected, and as we explain in the video it allows to select by element or by nodes.
In this video, we’ll teach you how to use the Results Visualization tools in NaxToView, including Contour, Vector, and Tensor Plots and Scalar Bar customization for advanced post-processing and simulation analysis.
In this video we will make a short introduction to the Output tool. The output tool displays the output information of the selected elements and nodes and us to take the selection to MS Excel in a very fast and simple way.
In the following exercise you are going to put into practice everything you have learned in this first part of NaxToView.
Welcome to NaxToView in this video we are going to explain how to use the tags tool. The tags tool allows us to add additional information in text mode. The tags can be attached to the graphic window or linked to the elements or nodes of the model, allowing to represent their information. In addition, it is also shown how to create operations within the tags.
The professional version of NaxToView includes the "attributes tool", a very useful tool, since it allows us to insert values in the elements (Cells/Nodes). You will be able to query, operate and represent these values graphically in the model. In the following video we explain in a very simple way how to use the attributes tool.
You have already seen how to create attributes. In this third part of the exercise, you are going to put it into practice.
Welcome to NaxToView, in the following video we explain how to use the Free Bodies tool, this tool is used to make cuts or sections in the structure of a model and obtain the force that goes through that section.
The next part of the NaxToView exercise is to create Free Bodies. If you have already watched the Free Bodies video, it is time to practice.
Welcome to NaxToView. The following video explains how to create derived results thanks to NaxToView.
Derived results can be from "load cases" or "components". In other words, this module allows you to combine load cases or components within a result.
The next part of the NaxToView exercise is to create Derived Results. If you have already watched the Derived Results, it's time to put it into practice.
In this video, we’ll give a short introduction to the scripting tool in NaxToView, which lets you automate tasks and extend the application using Python.
Thanks to the integrated console and the Scripting IDE, you can execute commands, create macros and custom buttons, and even run scripts automatically when the program starts.
If you’ve never programmed in Python, don’t worry, we’ll start by reusing the commands that NaxToView automatically generates for you.
In the next class you will find the NaxToPy user guide.
With this document you will learn the basics to start using NaxToPy (loading model, mesh, structural results, array results, modules, and examples).
In the resources section you will find the NaxToPy User Guide in PDF format.
Welcome to Naxtopy! In this video, you'll learn how to install NaxToPy, load a finite element model, and discover how this tool can revolutionize data management in structural analysis.
We will use a Jupyter notebook throughout this tutorial. You can download the notebook along with the rest of the materials from the materials section.
Welcome to Naxtopy! In this video, you’ll learn how to work with your model’s mesh, access element data, and apply specialized methods to simplify structural analysis.
We will use a Jupyter notebook throughout this tutorial. You can download the notebook along with the rest of the materials from the materials section.
In this video, you will learn how to access model results, understand load case structures, and use Naxtopy’s tools for detailed analysis.
In this video, you'll learn how to retrieve results arrays, customize the returned data, and efficiently analyze them using advanced Naxtopy methods.
In this video, you’ll learn how to generate result reports and manage error and warning logs in Naxtopy. These tools will help you keep your analysis organized and efficient.
Learn how to use NaxTo, the next generation tools for managing all your results in FEM analysis. With NaxTo you can post-process better and faster, using advanced tools, smart visualization and automation of tedious tasks.
In this course you will focus on NaxToView, NaxTo’s 3D post-processor, and NaxToPy, its object-oriented Python library. You will learn how to explore complex FEA models, create 3D PDFs, use advanced tags, derived results and other powerful tools, and then automate workflows using Python with a consistent syntax across different solvers.
You can download NaxTo for FREE. The Community version is licensed for academic and non-profit research use. For professional or commercial projects you must have the Professional license, and there is a 3 month free trial available.
The course is divided into the following sections:
• SECTION 1: DOWNLOAD NAXTO
You will learn how to download and install NaxTo for free and activate your license.
• SECTION 5: NAXTOVIEW – 3D VIEWER FOR FEA
You will learn how to use NaxToView, including 3D PDF generation, advanced tag creation, freebodies, attributes, derived results and more. This section includes several practical exercises with additional materials so you can practice with real models.
• SECTION 6: NAXTOPY – PYTHON LIBRARY FOR AUTOMATION
You will learn how to read data from the most common FEM solvers using the same code syntax, and how to store and manipulate them in a simple Python framework to automate your post processing workflows.
• SECTION 7: MODELS TO PRACTICE
You will get a set of models to continue practicing and discovering the advantages of using NaxToView and NaxToPy.
If you later want to automate your FEM reports and Excel workflows, you can also follow the dedicated course on NaxToDoc and NaxToCell.
