Evidence of learning
01_parametric_beam.macexecuted from a clean session.m01_design_table.csvwith four alternatives.- Archive the challenge with a fifth alternative.
- Table "defect → symptom → causes → correction" of the bug hunt.
- Prediction and explanation of the
1/8ratio obtained by doubling the height.
Validation checklist
- I gathered all the physical entries into a documented block.
- I eliminated the magic numbers of geometry, material, mesh, and charge.
- I distinguish entries, derivatives, references and results FEA.
- The script rejects non-positive dimensions and mesh.
- The CSV matches the expected results within tolerance.
- The first valid height of the base assembly is 120 mm.
- I completed the bug hunt and challenge without using the GUI.

Your model is already accepting input and making decisions. In M02 you will solve a more subtle problem: apply loads and constraints without relying on node numbers that change when modifying geometry or mesh.
