The corpus runs mesh.hex.octree's mesher on every part at 1/25 of its diagonal (the size of
the structured hex column) and reports hexahedra, the smallest and mean scaled Jacobian, the
mesh volume against SolidCraft's and the time; a part it cannot mesh gets the reason. The
column caps the elements at 500 000 so a part whose grid explodes is refused in seconds.
Loaded parts carry their bounding-box diagonal for the stages. docs/meshing/corpus.md
regenerated: 15 of 21 parts mesh, including filleted-bracket, rounded-box, sphere-on-plate
and the analytic sphere.

A slow theory case: the corpus bracket meshed by mesh.hex.octree at 7, 5 and 4 mm, clamped
at the base and loaded by 2 kN. Checks equilibrium, that every element is certified valid,
the mesh volume against the CAD volume, the beam bending stress of the upright leg
(sigma = M c / I = 145.3 MPa, within 5%) and the convergence of the fillet von Mises stress
against the 4 mm mesh.

Replaces the mesh with the octree all-hex mesh of a body, an imported surface or every body
of the open design, and tags boundary element faces with their B-rep faces so sets by
geometry resolve. Size, tolerance, refinement depth, element cap, attempts and optimiser
sweeps are validated and capped; the element cap defaults to the session limit
(`Limits::max_hex_elements`), which the hostile-params test keeps small. Body input and face
tagging are shared with mesh.hex.generate. The catalogue's Automatic Hex entry is ready.

`fieldcraft_mesh::octree::octree_hex_mesh` meshes any closed part with hex8 only:
- an adaptive 3-refinement grid (27-tree) with strong balance and closure, filled with
conforming node-marking transition templates (Schneiders; checked over all 48 symmetries);
- a core of grid cells kept clear of the boundary (the HybridOctree buffer rule), with
non-manifold cleanup and a genus check against the part;
- a feature graph from the B-rep (corners, curves, patches) and a partition-first map of the
core's boundary onto it, then two boundary layers: a padding layer and a pillow per patch,
so every face boundary and sharp edge is captured by element edges;
- a Garanzha-type untangling and fitting energy (shape term |J|^3/chi, a volume term and a
soft fitting term, deterministic across platforms), a compass search on the worst
elements and a certified repair; failures refine the grid near them and rebuild, within
bounded attempts and growth.
The output passes the certified Jacobian check of every element and a gate that the
boundary encloses the elements' volume; boundary quads carry their B-rep faces. Quality is
reported with the same scaled Jacobian as mesh.quality. Literature notes for each step are in
docs/meshing/literature.md (B1.6-B1.10).

Temperatures now strain the material in nonlinear steps instead of being
refused. At finite strain the deformation gradient splits multiplicatively,
F = F_m F_theta with F_theta = diag(1 + alpha_i dT) at each point: the material
sees F_m and the loops run on the thermally expanded volume J_theta dV0 (mixed
elements project det F_m), so the tangent stays consistent. At small strain the
split is additive, and elements on their linear stiffness take the equivalent
nodal forces as a dead load. The step's temperatures are its temperature loads,
or the steady conduction of its temperature conditions and heat loads (one-way
coupling, as the linear coupled step); both at once are refused. They ramp with
the load factor from each material's reference temperature. Johnson-Cook
plasticity softens at the point's temperature. Verified: free expansion and a
fully constrained neo-Hookean block at 20 % thermal stretch, full and hybrid
(exact); a bar held at its ends heated past yield (exact); the linear limit and
the conducted temperatures against the linear solvers; tangents by central
differences with a temperature field.

Two more large-strain options on the isotropic constants, decoupled like
neo-Hookean with the volume kappa/2 (J - 1)^2: Mooney-Rivlin with C10 = mu/2 - C01
(0 <= C01 <= mu/2) and Yeoh with C10 = mu/2 and the higher terms C20, C30, so the
small-strain material is the elastic one everywhere. MaterialModel::Polynomial
gives the isochoric stress and tangent from Holzapfel's fictitious quantities
(eqs. 6.168, 6.193), consistent by central differences, equal to neo-Hookean
with C10 alone; hybrid elements take it. Abaqus writes *HYPERELASTIC,
MOONEY-RIVLIN and YEOH; LS-DYNA keeps refusing hyperelastic materials in
nonlinear steps by name. Verified in uniaxial and equibiaxial tension and pure

logarithmic strain of 0.2 (Kirchhoff stress exact; 0.13 % from the explicit
solver's hypoelastic Cauchy stress, the elastic volume change between the two
laws), the Bauschinger effect of linear kinematic hardening on a load path
back to zero strain (exact), Hill's elastic-perfectly plastic thick cylinder
(bore displacement at a plastic radius of 1.5a within 0.009 %, collapse
pressure within 2e-8; the pending case is now active) and a cantilever's
plastic collapse, converged 3.1 % above beam theory's hinge, the bound a

Elements of a plastic material take the J2 material point: total Lagrangian
with nonlinear geometry, the small-strain loops without (elastic elements keep
their linear stiffness, so elastic results do not move). The plastic history is
committed per converged increment. Increments follow the step's load path,
ending at its points, the extrapolated predictor scaled by the change of the
load factor. Steps with path-dependent materials start an increment without a
predictor from the tangent predictor (the prescribed motion spread through the
converged tangent), and a first tangent that is not positive definite is a
cutback when the undeformed model's is. Refused by name: the Johnson-Cook rate
term (a static step has no time) and kinematic hardening at finite strain;
damage, erosion and adiabatic heating are left out with a warning. Results
carry the equivalent plastic strain at the integration points (solve.probe,
the step summary). LS-DYNA writes a load path as the step's curve; Abaqus
refuses it and a plastic deck of several general steps (Abaqus carries the
plastic state between them).

The radial return of the explicit update is now J2::radial_return, called by
both solvers, with the consistent tangent J2::tangent (Simo & Hughes 1998,
Box 3.2). The new elastoplastic module gives the implicit material point:
Simo's multiplicative plasticity with the exponential return map in the
principal logarithmic strains (CMAME 99, 1992) and its spatial tangent through
the Daleckii-Krein divided differences of the logarithm, and the additive
radial return of small strain with kinematic hardening. MaterialModel::Plastic
carries it, decoupled (deviatoric return, Hencky volume) so hybrid elements
take it. The element loops of finite.rs gain small-strain kinematics for
inelastic materials and pass history through the mixed path. Every tangent is
checked against central differences, element by element, from a plastic
history.

solve.nonlinear follows a nonlinear static step in load increments: dead
loads and prescribed displacements ramp with the load factor, a pressure
follows the deformed faces (its load stiffness symmetrised so the
supernodal Cholesky stays), the consistent tangent is refactored every
iteration with an optional line search, and an increment converges on
force, displacement and energy together. Increments start from the
extrapolated last one, grow after fast convergence and are cut back on
inversion, a non-finite or growing residual, an indefinite tangent or too
many iterations; the step stops cleanly at the minimum increment, the
increment cap or the Newton iteration limit. Elements are assembled in
parallel in label order (same bits on any thread count). Results carry
Cauchy stress, logarithmic strain, the increment history and a displacement
frame per increment, which results.frame and the results panel show.

i-beam part is unchanged (its corpus row and the meshing tests keep it).
The demo clamps it at x = 0 and loads the free end with 1000 N in -z

mesh.block's lattice is now built from the structured hex mesher's

Oracle: a zero-reference quantity (rounding noise) keeps its absolute

* Structured hex meshing: multi-level extrude and revolve, one-to-one sweep, mapped blocks (M5)
modelcraft_mesh::hex::hex_mesh meshes a face-tagged boundary surface with
hexahedra by the first structured method that fits: a straight or
rotational multi-level sweep (imprinted cross-section arrangement, cuts at
reflex corners, mapped/annulus/free regions), a one-to-one sweep through
rings of linking faces (least-squares affine layers with residual
correction), or a mapped logical cube (trivariate transfinite
interpolation). Interval assignment couples shared curves; boundary quads
carry B-rep face tags; the certified validity gate, a tiling check and a
