Getting started#
PyMechanical is part of the broader PyAnsys initiative,
enabling the use of Ansys technologies directly from Python.
It allows users to integrate the Mechanical multiphysics solver
into custom applications via ansys-mechanical-core, which provides a Python-friendly
interface to drive the software that facilitates the use of
Mechanical scripting commands.
