Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is FetchCFD?

FetchCFD is an online platform for publishing, downloading, and collaborating on 3D models, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulations. Learn more about FetchCFD.

Is FetchCFD free to use?

Yes, FetchCFD offers free access for users to publish and download CFD simulations, FEA models, and 3D CAD designs up to a certain usage limit. Upgrade options are available for advanced features.

What is a fluid simulation?

A fluid simulation models the movement of liquids or gases using computational techniques. It's applied in fields like engineering design, physics research, and computer graphics. Discover free fluid simulations to explore or download.

What is a simulation?

Simulations replicate real-world systems, processes, or phenomena in a controlled, virtual environment. They are widely used in engineering analysis, scientific research, and education. Explore a variety of simulationson FetchCFD for your project needs.

What is Text-to-3D?

AI-powered text-to-3D model tools transform written descriptions into usable 3D models, making the creation of 3D content more accessible to end-users who may not possess traditional modeling skills. These tools are increasingly popular in fields such as game development, digital art, product design, and educational uses within VR/AR experiences. Check out FetchCFD's free text to 3D model online tool.

What is Image-to-3D?

Image-to-3D is an AI-powered technology that converts two-dimensional images into fully detailed three-dimensional models. A 2D image is analyzed for depth, shape, texture, and structural details, which are then reconstructed into a fully realized 3D model. That means users can take photos, sketches, product images, or architectural designs and immediately turn them into immersive 3D assets ready for visualization, animation, gaming, VR/AR, or design workflows. Find out more about FetchCFD's image to 3D online tool.

What is a 3D viewer?

A 3D viewer enables users to upload and interact with 3D models directly in their web browser. Experience FetchCFD’s free online 3D viewer to visualize models in multiple formats.

What is Finite Element Analysis (FEA)?

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a computational method used to break down complex physical structures into smaller elements for analysis. It’s essential for mechanical engineering, structural design, and stress testing. Access detailed FEA models and tutorials.

What is CAD?

CAD (Computer-Aided Design) involves using software to create, modify, or optimize designs for manufacturing, architecture, or engineering. Browse FetchCFD’s CAD models and 3D designs.

What is AI 3D Generator?

The AI 3D Generator is an innovative tool that generates three-dimensional models either from a text description or an image with the help of artificial intelligence.
