Simulate Early, Simulate Often... In Rhino

Why not make a non-linear calculation by iterating the calculation ? 1) Add a fraction of the load (step value is user-defineable) 2) Calculate 3) Add next fraction of the load, but on deformed (stretched) geometry (*) 4) Back to (1) until all the load has been applied Eventually : stop when material enters the rupture zone of the Hooke's diagram for the material.
