[SOLVED] What is the best way to perform 2D FEM with SOFA?

[mbarrow]

I would like to perform a 2D FEM analysis using SOFA.

Essentially I want to duplicate the FullObject.scn from the tutorials up to around step 4, but instead of using a HexahedronFEMForceField I would like to use a Triangular shaped force field on a SparseGridTopology that I construct from some 2D polygon .obj.
I am able to instantiate a Vec2d MechanicalObject, and can use a SparseGridTopology to create a grid of Mass centroids but I don’t know where to go from here.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks

Please disregard this, I looked more carefully and found the anisotropic2DFEM.scn example.

Hi @mjbarrow,

great to hear that you found happiness in the SOFA examples!
I therefore close the topic.
Best,

Hugo
