MechFoundry: An agentic loop that poses and performs engineering analyses and optimization of real-world objects

Summary

MechFoundry is an agentic system that automates structural analysis of real-world objects without human intervention, generating shapes, posing loading cases, assigning materials, and solving nonlinear responses. Across 50 objects, it completed analyses in 6.5 minutes and at $1.3 per object on average, with language-model reviewers grading sessions due to the lack of a test suite.
