I have started to develop a structural analysis tool (linear elastic response) using an alternative method to FEA, and I am wondering if the tool would be useful. The method uses a regular grid rather than a mesh. So it is less accurate for sharp shapes but seems to be very fast. Since I am not a structural engineer, I wanted to get thoughts on this to see if this kind of tool (coming from microstructure studies) could be helpful for the design process? For example, at a very early stage of a design, drawings could be done in a few seconds. Here is the tool I am working on: fsa.plvaldenaire.com
