platform, which offers deeper simulation integration and improved collaboration. Conclusion
: Version mismatch between the macro and your CATIA V5 API (CAA). Fix : This occurs when thmyl was compiled for a lower CATIA version. Request a recompiled bridge from the vendor. As a workaround, try changing the macro’s late-binding syntax to early-binding by referencing the CATIA V5 Object Library in Tools → References. thmyl-catia-v5

Create a simple part (e.g., a 100mm x 100mm x 10mm aluminum plate). Apply a heat source on one face and a convection boundary on the opposite face. Run ExportToTHMYL to generate a test case. Then run RunTHMYLSolver . If successful, a temperature field will appear in a new analysis case. Apply a heat source on one face and
Many engineering firms have proprietary Fortran or C++ solvers developed over 20+ years. thmyl acts as the API wrapper that reads a CATPart or CATProduct file, extracts the mesh data (nodes and elements), maps material properties, and writes a native input deck for the legacy solver.
