Hi everyone,  
we made a update for the CalculiX Component for Cubit.  
As always you can find the source and the binaries on Github.

> **[GitHub - calculix/Cubit-CalculiX: Pre- and Postprocessing for CalculiX can be done...](https://github.com/calculix/Cubit-CalculiX)**
>
> Pre- and Postprocessing for CalculiX can be done with this component in coreform cubit. The results will be converted to Paraview (.frd and .dat: nodal, element and integration points results).

So what’s new:  
• reading and converting the results can now be done in parallel, the number of threads can be set in the options.  
• added two new tabs in the Job Monitor. The .frd and .dat results can now be queried, ploted and exported as .csv directly in cubit

Your work on Cubit is amazing. Do you know how is the licencing for Cubit? By the moment I´m using Mecway FEA for prepost (even these days for OpenRadioss and listen that… for OpenFOAM as well!!!), but sometimes for big models can be slow or if I need to make super fancy postprocessing I switch to ParaView, maybe Cubit could be a best solution.

I know all about the current licensing (we are a official reseller) but you will have to write me an email norbert@maschinenbauer.at if you need a price.

Basically cubit got nodelocked and floating licenses. They can be purchased with an annual subscription or as perpetual license. There is also a huge discount for academic usage.
