Crates fieldcraft-*, binaries fieldcraft and fieldcraft-cli, the .fieldcraft file (format tag
fieldcraft/1, manifest fieldcraft.json), FIELDCRAFT_* environment variables, the MCP server
name, egui widget ids (fc_*), the app icon document FieldCraft.icon and its generated family,
docs and licences. No compatibility shim: no files of the earlier name exist.

5ebb9f16dc Hybrid (mixed u–p) solids: hex8 and tet10 with a constant pressure, hex20 with a linear one (#49)
The isotropic elasticity splits into D_dev + K m mᵀ; an element-wise
discontinuous pressure is condensed out (p̂ = K M⁻¹ Gᵀ u), leaving
K_dev + K G M⁻¹ Gᵀ (Hughes §4.3–4.5). Q2–P1disc and P2–P0 are inf-sup
stable; Q1–P0 does not lock; tet4 and wedge6 still lock and are refused, as
are orthotropic materials (named at the section). ElementDofs counts the
condensed pressures. Verified: element patch, rigid modes and totals for
every hybrid kind, a block in uniaxial strain at ν = 0.4999 (exact), Lamé's
cylinder in plane strain at ν = 0.4999 (hex20 1e-5, tet10 1.3e-3, hex8
2.5e-3 vs the locking displacement hex8 at −80 %). Every non-hybrid result
of the test suites hashes identically before and after.

e900f41ce3 FEM foundation B: heat transfer and thermal stress (solids, 2D, explicit), coupled temperature–displacement, solve.heat (#45)
* Heat transfer and thermal stress: thermal materials, temperature BCs, heat loads, heat transfer and coupled temperature–displacement steps, solve.heat

Model: Material.thermal (conductivity, specific heat, expansion, isotropic or
per axis; reference temperature), BoundaryCondition::Temperature (dof 11),
loads SurfaceFlux, Convection, HeatSource and Temperature (a field in static
steps), procedures HeatTransfer { transient (θ-method) } and
CoupledTemperatureDisplacement; checks for missing conductivity/specific
heat/expansion. fem: heat conduction kernels (conductivity, capacity,
source, face flux/film, heat flux) on the DofLayout (one T per node), thermal
strain load and stress D(ε − ε_th) for every solid formulation incl.
incompatible modes. Solver: steady and transient heat transfer, thermal loads
in static steps, coupled steps (exact one-way coupling). Engine: solve.heat,
temperature/heat-flux result fields, probes. Decks refuse heat transfer by
name. Analytic verification: slab, source+convection/flux, thick cylinder,
erfc semi-infinite solid, free/constrained expansion, bimetal strip, coupled
step.

* thermal: strains in 2D elements and explicit dynamics

Plane::thermal_load and stresses_with for plane stress (εzz free), plane
strain (σzz = −D₃·ε_th) and axisymmetric elements, incompatible modes
included; the solver's 2D kernels take them. Explicit dynamics turns a
step's temperature loads into a per-element thermal strain rate (reached
linearly over the step) subtracted from each strain increment, so it feeds
J2 and Johnson–Cook updates. Verified: free expansion in every 2D theory
and element, a biaxially held plate, an explicit free bar (ΔL = αΔT L,
stress-free) and a clamped bar at −EαΔT, capped at the yield stress with
perfect plasticity.

* thermal: trusses take the axial thermal strain; keep the roadmap's M7 line

Truss::thermal_load and stresses_with project the thermal strain on the
member's tangent (Σ αₖ tₖ² ΔT); the static solver applies them to rod2/rod3
(#38). Explicit trusses take none yet and a warning says so.

truss kernel on Basis::Line2/Line3 declaring ElementDofs (translations).
Decks: Abaqus T3D3, MASS, ROTARYI, SPRING1/2/A, DASHPOT1/2/A; Nastran CONM1,
CELAS2, CDAMP2; LS-DYNA ELEMENT_MASS/INERTIA and ELEMENT_DISCRETE; what a
format cannot take is reported. Commands model.mass.* and model.spring.*.

* Implicit solver: trusses, point masses, rotary inertia and springs on the DofLayout

Trusses declare their translations like solids; point masses, inertia and
springs ask the layout for the kinds they need at their nodes (translations,
rotations), and reference points they use get six degrees of freedom. The
matrix pattern takes rows for those points; dashpots are ignored with a
warning. Existing results are bit-identical (hash-checked).

bd55abea7f FEM foundation A: DofKind/DofLayout, shape-function library with Hessians, solvers on DofLayout (#35)
* fem: DofKind/DofLayout and the shape-function library with second derivatives

DofKind (Ux..Rz, T, P), DofSet, ElementDofs (per-node kinds and condensed
internal unknowns) and DofLayout: mesh nodes by label, kinds in order, then
reference points. basis::Basis covers line2/3, tri3/6, quad4/8/9, tet4/10,
wedge6/15, pyramid5, hex8/20/27 with values, first and second natural
derivatives (second-order forward AD, fem::jet) and the physical gradients,
Hessians and Laplacians with the map's second-derivative term. Tested for
Kronecker delta, partition of unity, polynomial completeness, finite
differences, affine and curved maps.

* solver, explicit: number degrees of freedom with DofLayout

The implicit mesh numbers its unknowns with a DofLayout (mesh nodes by label
with the kinds their elements declare, then six per coupled reference point);
assembly adds element blocks by (node, DofKind), so a node may carry any mix
of kinds; couplings, boundary conditions, loads and results address
(node, kind). The explicit system keeps node-major translations, now checked
against its layout (NODE_DOFS). Solid formulations declare their ElementDofs.

Every static, frequency and explicit result of the solver, explicit, engine
and io test suites hashes bit-identically before and after (957 results).
docs/fem.md describes the DOF model and the shape-function conventions.

* fem, solver: simplify after review

Block offsets resolved once per node pair; add_scalar/add_diagonal take
the kinds like add_block; one checked Jacobian inverse (dense::positive_inverse)
for the solid kernels and the basis library; static natural-node tables; the
Hessian path inverts the Jacobian once.
