Tutorial Preparation

Cloning the Tutorial Files

To complete this tutorial you will need to acquire the FEA analysis tutorial files. First clone the OpenMETA Examples and Templates repository to the location of your choosing. Then navigate to the fea-tutorial folder.

Launching the Project

1. Once you’ve navigated to the tutorial model folder, double-click FEA_Tutorial.xme to open it in GME.
2. Save the project to the default directory (where your .xme file is located), taking note of this directory as you will need to access this location later in the tutorial.

Note

Be sure all the files (e.g. “components folder”, .xme file) are in the same directory throughout the tutorial.
