It records what the agents should investigate before solver implementation begins. + +No solver code should be implemented from this plan directly. Each agent should produce an English technical dossier that an implementer can later follow. + +## Project Context +FESA is a C++17 finite element structural analysis solver. Phase 1 targets a linear static MITC4 shell solver with linear elastic material, nodal loads, fixed boundary conditions, an Abaqus input subset, HDF5-oriented results, and reference-result comparison. + +The user will provide Abaqus input files and solved reference result files under a repository `reference/` folder. Abaqus is not available locally, so validation must compare against stored reference artifacts. + +## Current Architecture Constraints +- Follow `AGENTS.md`, `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`, and `docs/ADR.md`. +- Use runtime polymorphism for elements, materials, loads, boundary conditions, and analysis algorithms. +- Keep `Domain` close to immutable after parsing. +- Use `AnalysisModel` for the active step view. +- Use `AnalysisState` for mutable physical state and iteration state. +- Let `DofManager` own DOF definitions, constrained/free DOF mapping, equation numbering, and sparse pattern support. +- Use Strategy plus Template Method for analysis execution. +- Use Factory plus Registry for Abaqus keyword to object creation. +- Keep MKL, TBB, and HDF5 behind adapter/wrapper boundaries. +- Store results using step/frame/field/history concepts. + +## Created Codex Agents +The first recommended batch has been created under `.codex/agents/`. + +1. `fem_literature_researcher` + - File: `.codex/agents/fem-literature-researcher.toml` + - Role: research FEM shell literature, MITC family background, locking behavior, and implementation implications. + +2. `verification_benchmark_researcher` + - File: `.codex/agents/verification-benchmark-researcher.toml` + - Role: research benchmark cases, reference folder contracts, comparison methods, and acceptance criteria. + +3. `mitc4_formulation_researcher` + - File: `.codex/agents/mitc4-formulation-researcher.toml` + - Role: research MITC4 formulation details and convert them into implementation requirements. + +4. `abaqus_compatibility_researcher` + - File: `.codex/agents/abaqus-compatibility-researcher.toml` + - Role: research the Phase 1 Abaqus input subset and parser compatibility rules. + +## Recommended Agent Execution Order +1. Run `fem_literature_researcher`. +2. Run `verification_benchmark_researcher`. +3. Run `mitc4_formulation_researcher`. +4.

The intended `reference/` folder layout, or permission to propose one. +2. At least one simple Abaqus `.inp` file and its solved reference result artifact. +3. Preferred reference result format if available: `.dat`, `.rpt`, exported `.csv`, HDF5, or another structured format. +4. Whether Phase 1 should map Abaqus `S4` directly to FESA `MITC4`. +5. Whether Phase 1 shell nodes use six DOFs per node from the beginning: three translations and three rotations. +6. Preferred numerical tolerances for reference comparison, or permission for agents to propose initial tolerances per benchmark. +7. Whether the first implementation plan should target CMake, another build system, or a project-specific build layout. + +## Seed Sources +- Abaqus input syntax rules: https://abaqus-docs.mit.edu/2017/English/SIMACAEMODRefMap/simamod-c-inputsyntax.htm +- Abaqus shell section behavior: https://abaqus-docs.mit.edu/2017/English/SIMACAEELMRefMap/simaelm-c-shellsectionbehavior.htm +- OpenSees ShellMITC4 manual: https://opensees.berkeley.edu/OpenSees/manuals/usermanual/640.htm +- MITC3+/MITC4+ benchmark paper: https://web.mit.edu/kjb/www/Principal_Publications/Performance_of_the_MITC3%2B_and_MITC4%2B_shell_elements_in_widely_used_benchmark_problems.pdf +- COMSOL Scordelis-Lo benchmark example: https://doc.comsol.com/5.6/doc/com.comsol.help.models.sme.scordelis_lo_roof/scordelis_lo_roof.html +- NAFEMS nonlinear benchmark survey page: https://www.nafems.org/publications/pubguide/benchmarks/Page6/ + +## Non-Goals +- Do not implement solver code. +- Do not generate phase execution files until the user explicitly asks for implementation planning. +- Do not require Abaqus execution in local validation. +- Do not treat unsourced formulas or benchmark constants as final.
