Hi Jeffrey, So you're into CFD simulations? PythonOCC and Code Saturne can be easily coupled, perhaps that's of interest. Here's a post on how FEM meshing and setting boundary conditions can be done on the BREP topology. Note that PythonOCC is oriented toward nurbs and is not a suitable tool fo

Hi Jeffrey, pythonOCC is suitable for your purpose. It's such a huge API that it's not possible to develop an example for all possible study cases, but from all the examples provided with the library, you can easily import a STL file, explore the topology/geometry of the shape and then write whate

I am building a Python/Fortran 95 based simulation environment for some physics simulations. I am interested in reading a Solidworks model (ported for instance to STL) and querying xyz locations to populate a simulation mesh, which I will then write out as a NETCDF database, which will be the
