Results publish while they converge, so the heat map sharpens under your cursor instead of making you wait. No GPU compute? It drops to a solver that uses every CPU core you have. Either way, you keep working.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLoads that follow your design.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFixes and forces are attached to the geometry, not to coordinates.
