* fem: wedge6 element (triangle × interval, 3 × 2 points), patch and cantilever tests Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NmAttHhUZTokgPeEJia8sm * solver: reference points, kinematic and distributing couplings, moments by constraint elimination Coupled reference points get six degrees of freedom; kinematic couplings are rigid links, distributing couplings least-squares interpolation constraints. Every constraint row and prescribed value is eliminated master-slave (Abel-Shephard pivot choice), so the reduced matrix stays SPD; no coupling gives the old elimination bit for bit. Verified: rigid motion of a coupled block, clamping through a point, distributing tension vs pressure, bending and tube torsion.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NmAttHhUZTokgPeEJia8sm * solver: refuse oversized reductions before allocating them A held distributing coupling point makes a dense (3N)^2 block; estimate it from the constraint rows and refuse it against the factorization's memory budget with a clear message, before anything is built. Other reductions with dependents count their entries first (stopping at the budget) and reserve fallibly.

ModelCraft
An open-source, clean-room CAE modeling application in pure Rust: geometry to analysis-ready finite element models, with robust tetrahedral and hexahedral meshing, solver decks for Abaqus, Nastran and LS-DYNA, and its own linear static and modal solver. Desktop, browser and AI agents drive the same commands.
Status: early. The workspace, quality gates, the FE model, the command engine and the geometry boundary (SolidCraft's kernel and tessellator) are in place; meshing is next. See ROADMAP.md.
Build
cargo xtask ci # fmt, assets, licences, layers, clippy, tests, wasm
cargo run -p modelcraft-cli -- commands # every command and its parameters
cargo run -p modelcraft-cli -- run script.json # run a command script
Rust 1.95 or later, with the wasm32-unknown-unknown target for cargo xtask ci.
