FEM Reports
Professional PDF reports from your simulations
Overview
confBuild generates professional PDF simulation reports that document your FEM analysis results, safety assessment, and AI-powered design recommendations. Reports are ready to share with clients, colleagues, or for regulatory documentation.
Key Features
- Professional multi-page PDF with charts and tables
- AI-powered safety assessment and design recommendations
- Color-coded safety status (safe, warning, critical)
- Boundary conditions and material properties documentation
- Stress and displacement analysis with visualizations
Report Contents
Each report contains three pages of analysis documentation.
Page 1: Summary & Safety
- Cover section with date and project info
- Analysis info cards — mesh type, analysis type, material
- Safety assessment banner — Safe (green), Warning (orange), or Critical (red)
- Safety factor badge with numeric value
- Yield utilization bar — visual progress bar showing stress/yield ratio
- Stress visualization screenshot from your 3D view
- Key metrics — max stress, yield strength, utilization percentage
Page 2: Detailed Analysis
- Boundary conditions table — all loads, constraints, and their values
- Stress analysis section — distribution commentary and hotspot identification
- Displacement analysis — acceptability evaluation with limits
- Design recommendations — AI-generated numbered suggestions with improvement callouts
Page 3: Technical Details
- Warnings section — any issues identified during analysis
- Overall summary — concise conclusion statement
- Material properties table — complete property listing of assigned material
- Generation footer — timestamp and confBuild branding
AI-Powered Analysis
Reports include AI-generated insights for comprehensive engineering assessment.
Safety Assessment
AI evaluates overall structural safety
Stress Hotspots
Identifies critical stress locations
Recommendations
Actionable design improvement suggestions
Displacement Review
Acceptability evaluation vs. standards
Safety Status
Reports use a color-coded system to clearly communicate structural safety.
Safe
SF > 2.0
Comfortable margin, design passes
Warning
1.0 < SF ≤ 2.0
Low margin, review recommended
Critical
SF ≤ 1.0
Material will yield, redesign required
Batch Simulation Reports
Run parametric studies and get aggregated results across multiple design variations.
Parametric Studies
- Create parameter combinations (e.g., thickness: 1–5 mm, load: 500–2000 N)
- Run up to 100 simulation variations in batch
- Control parallelism (1–10 concurrent simulations)
- View aggregated results: min/max/average stress and displacement
- Identify the optimal design variation automatically
Aggregated Metrics
Min/Max/Avg Displacement
Displacement range across all variations
Min/Max/Avg Stress
Stress range across all variations
Optimal Variation
Best design based on safety criteria
