SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires ZW3D API, Python, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the complexities of post-processing workflows in ZW3D 2026, including result type queries, contour/cloud plots, CSV export, report generation, animations, thermal or structural result extraction, and bridge result-query commands.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Result Type Queries: Query and display various result types like displacement, stress, strain, temperature, reaction force, and heat flux.
  • Cloud Plot Generation: Generate contour and cloud plots for visualization.
  • CSV Data Export: Export node and element data to CSV files.
  • Animation Export: Create animated GIFs of thermal or structural results.
  • Report Generation: Generate HTML reports with summaries, contours, key results, and tables.
  • Use Case: For engineers who need to analyze and visualize CAE results in ZW3D.

Quick Start

Use the zw3d-cae-post skill to generate a thermal contour plot for the 'steady_thermal' task and export it as a PNG to 'D:/output/thermal_contour.png'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate CAE post-processing and result visualization in ZW3D 2026?

Automate CAE post-processing in ZW3D 2026 by using Python scripts via the ZW3D API to query result types, generate contour plots, export CSV data, create animations, and generate HTML reports.

Can I export CAE node and element data to CSV from ZW3D?

You can export CAE node and element data to CSV from ZW3D by automating the post-processing workflow with Python and the ZW3D API to extract structural and thermal results into structured files.

What is the best way to generate contour plots for thermal analysis in ZW3D?

Generating contour plots for thermal analysis in ZW3D is best handled by automating the workflow with Python, allowing you to visualize temperature and heat flux results and export them as PNG files.

Does ZW3D support generating CAE analysis reports automatically?

ZW3D supports generating CAE analysis reports automatically through Python API scripting, which creates HTML reports containing summaries, contour plots, key results, and data tables.

How do I create animated GIFs of structural and thermal results in ZW3D?

Create animated GIFs of structural and thermal results in ZW3D by executing Python scripts through the ZW3D API to automate the animation export process during post-processing.

Do I need Python to query displacement and stress results in ZW3D?

Python is required alongside the ZW3D API to automate querying and displaying CAE result types such as displacement, stress, strain, temperature, reaction force, and heat flux.
