Hello!
It's a great tool you built there! I'd like to use it for some kind of
topology optimisation.
Is there an "idiomatic" way to set the material parameters of individual
nodes?
Thank you very much!

Hi Mike,
You need to either generate the mesh using the simple mesh generators that are
in the sfepy package (just block or cylinder meshes), or (most often) you need
to provide a mesh file, created in advance in an external tool. Many
open-source or commercial softwares can be used for meshing. The following
formats are supported thanks to meshio package:
$ python3 script/convert_mesh.py -l a b
sfepy: Supported readable mesh formats:

OK, so is fish_heart.py in your working directory? And how did you install
sfepy (which version)?
Anyway, maybe start with the example [1], which is up-to-date and simpler.

Can you post how you run the example module?
If it is the file from [1], note that it is already 10 years old, so it likely
needs updating for current sfepy.

Hello !
Is there a way to export data as a audio sound-file ? At least the kind that could Work ?
For instance, acoustics3d.py or vibro_acoustic3d.py could export vtk file that could then be converted into a wav or aiff one ?
Is there any example somewhere ?
Thanks !!
O.
