Seed design edges by their persistent names with a count or a size, a bias
and a constraint; one undo step each, saved with the model. Seeds on edges a
reopened design lacks are reported as stale.

file.sample crank-mirror partitions the crank arm on its symmetry plane, sweeps
one half all-hex (hex20) and mirrors it into one conforming mesh, then defines
the crank-arm model. Samples may now run preparing commands (datums,
partitions) before their script sees the bodies. Its test checks the halves
alike and joined, every element valid and the sets on both halves; the heavy
test solves it: sigma_xx at the root -62.43 / +62.43 MPa against M/Z = 62.5.

A symmetry condition (zero normal displacement, zero rotation about the
in-plane axes) on a datum plane normal to X, Y or Z, with its set given or made
of the open design's faces on the plane (a partition's cut faces), so half a
symmetric part is solved as a half. Half a 40 mm bar cut at its mid-width, with
the condition and half the load, bends as the whole bar to 2e-12 with half the
reaction. Inclined planes are refused as not supported yet.

The bodies' elements are reflected across a datum plane (or a point and
normal) with fieldcraft_mesh::mirror and joined on it. The image is tagged as
the design's body at the reflected place (found by volume and centroid, or
named in `as`), its faces with that body's faces under them, so sets by face
name reach both halves. Half a bar meshed hex8 or hex20 and mirrored has the
whole bar's node and element counts and volume, and its bending deflection to
1e-12; tet4 and tet10 mirror valid and conforming.

Each cell (a body of the open design) gets its own method: structured hex where
one fits (auto falls back to tet and says why), or tet. All go into one mesh.
Cells on either side of a partition are joined: where their element faces
match node for node the nodes are merged; otherwise (hex next to tet, or
different divisions) the two partition faces get a set each and a dual mortar
tie, the reported hex-tet transition. A 40 mm bar cut in half, one half hex,
the other tet, stretches F L / (E A) to 1e-6.

Datum planes by principal plane and offset, three points, or point and
normal; datum axes by principal axis, two points, or point and direction.
geometry.partition cuts the open design by a datum plane and keeps the
partition in the model, so geometry.open, file.open and undo cut the design
again. Requirements, forms and the Prepare entries are wired; features.md
lists them as ready.

Opening a design over a model kept its mesh and every definition silently,
even when the design was another part (#145, #114). geometry.open now takes
`model`: "keep" (default: same-design reopen keeps the mesh and sets that
follow persistent face names) or "new" (clears mesh, definitions and
imported surfaces, keeps the unit system). The reply says whether the design
is `related` to the model's geometry references and lists `stale` mesh
bodies and sets. One undo step either way.

file.sample crank-arm: a 170 mm 6061-T6 crank built in SolidCraft
(crates/engine/samples/crank-arm.json), swept along z by mesh.hex.generate
as 7274 hex20 elements of 3 mm (scaled Jacobian min 0.17). The hex variant
drops the pocket floor fillet and boss chamfers, and its root arcs meet the
bosses 20 degrees off tangent so the arm's top face has no zero-angle cusp.
The square bore is fixed and 1500 N acts on the pedal hole; the faces are
picked by their surfaces, not their names. Its heavy test matches the root
bending stress to M/Z = 62.6 MPa within 3 % (0.3 % in practice).

file.sample bracket-hex: the corpus bracket split into 30 SolidCraft cells,
meshed by mesh.hex.blocks as one conforming hex20 mesh of 3 mm, clamped at
the upright and loaded at the foot. The sample's script finds the clamp and
load faces in every cell that has them. Its test matches the tip deflection
of a fine tet10 solution within 1 % and checks the clamp carries the load.

hole bores clamped, the upright's end held at 120 C and the rest cooled by
still air; one coupled temperature-displacement step. Its test checks the

clamps one hole, and matches the free thermal expansion alpha dT times the
distance from the hole along x.

file.sample flow-past: air at 25 mm/s past the upright L-bracket in a box of
2.5 mm lattice cells (Re 83), inlet, outlet, a no-slip floor and slip walls;
the fluid step reports the force on each named face. Its test holds the
drag coefficient on the upright's frontal area between 1 and 3.5 (2.3) and
the lattice's mass change under 1 %. No picture: the viewport does not draw
flow results yet (M12).

file.sample rubber-seal: a gasket ring of hybrid hex8 elements in four
mapped quarter blocks, squeezed 2.5 mm between plates bonded to it
(nonlinear static, Mooney-Rivlin rubber). Its test frees the plates and
matches the closed form for incompressible uniaxial compression within 3 %,
and bounds the bonded ring's extra stiffness. The plates are prescribed
displacements until implicit contact (#161) can press it into a groove.

explicit dynamics for 1 ms with gravity and plasticity. Its test checks the
mass against rho V, the impact speed sqrt(2 g h) and kinetic energy, the
energy balance and the momentum the floor takes. docs/examples.md starts

An explicit step may ask for mass scaling to a target time increment (on
a set, or the whole model): elements whose stable increment is below it
get the density that reaches it, with their lumped masses, frequency
bound and hourglass scales; adiabatic heating keeps the physical
density. The run reports the elements scaled, the added mass in all and
per section with its fraction, a warning, and the added mass's kinetic
energy in the energy account. Verified on a uniform bar scaled to twice
its increment (added mass 3×, increment doubled, a quarter of the
kinetic energy left to the physical mass). ROADMAP and parity note the
hyperelastic materials and mass scaling.

NonlinearStatic.arc_length {constraint, max_load_factor, displacement_limit}: Riks–Crisfield
arc-length increments (cylindrical or spherical arc, tangent predictor signed by the angle
criterion, the constraint's quadratic root chosen by the angle with the last iterate), arcs
grown, shrunk and cut back as increments are. The converged state's tangent is factored for the
next predictor (LDLᵀ when indefinite); its negative eigenvalues are recorded per increment and
changes in their count are reported as limit or bifurcation points. Ends at the maximum load
factor, a displacement limit or the increment cap. Abaqus *STATIC, RIKS; LS-DYNA refuses it by
name; forms gain the arc-length group. A shallow arch of hex20 snaps through on the closed-form
path (1.9 %), both limit points found, inertia 0 → 1 → 0 between them.

cmd/forms.rs describes each command's parameters: model definitions (sets,
materials with elasticity, plasticity, hyperelasticity, damage, thermal and fluid
options, sections, reference points, couplings, masses, springs, boundary
conditions, loads, fluid domains, steps including nonlinear and explicit),
meshers, solvers, deck export, files and results. Tests check that every command
has a form and that a form's defaults are accepted or refused only for the
required fields left empty.
