Automated mesh generation and refinement No more manual meshing and time-consuming convergence studies. Get straight to decision-making at full speed.
-
Error-driven adaptive meshing Simulation modeling is not just about speed, it is about quality and trust in digital design. Our mesh is refined with a certified error estimation, i.e. some strict and effective bounds on the discretization error are computed.
-
Cloud-native platform Lack of compute resources must never prevent access to knowledge about the mechanical behavior of your designs. We make discovery accessible to everyone. Running analysis with our solver does not require any personal data. After the computation is performed, you can remove your data from your cloud storage: your data, your choice.

Freedom to build what you want The UI is based upon FreeCAD, an open-source parametric 3D modeler made primarily to design real-life objects of any size. Parametric modeling allows you to easily modify your design by going back into your model history to change its parameters. The Suqaba team is grateful to everyone involved in the FreeCAD project.
In the framework of our beta 1.1, users have access to the following features:
- Static linear elastic simulation for structural analysis
- Automated mesh generation and refinement, based on a certified error estimator
- Quality Oracle: a local indicator of the confidence level in simulation results
- Issuance of quality certificates
- Access to computing resources (SaaS model, Simulation as a Service)
- Dedicated UI
- 3D geometry design (either by drawing parts into the UI or importing them)
- Model setup with a materials and boundary condition library
- Integrated Python scripting capabilities for workflow customization
Precompiled packages for stable releases is available for Windows on the Releases page.
For Linux and macOS, the SuqabaUI UI will have to be compiled from sources (see section below). You can also compile the UI from sources on Windows if need be.
Note: To visualize simulation results (e.g., Quality Oracle, displacement and stress fields), extract field values and perform post-processing tasks like warping, clipping, and animation, you will need to install ParaView.
SuqabaUI requires several dependencies to correctly compile for development and production builds. The following pages contain updated build instructions for their respective platforms:
Note: The "python-decouple" and "websockets" packages must also be installed in the Python environment that the UI runs with.

The FreeCAD wiki contains documentation on general FreeCAD usage, Python scripting, and development. View these pages for more information:
The FreeCAD forum is a great place to find help and solve specific problems when learning to use FreeCAD.
