 "title": "Check thermal stress in a heated steel bracket",
 "page_title": "How to check thermal stress in a heated steel bracket with Fieldcraft",
 "summary": "Run the heated-bracket sample to see steady heat flow and the stress it causes.",
 "who": "A design engineer checking whether a clamped metal part can take heat at one end without overstressing.",
 "problem": "Heat applied to one end of a constrained part creates stress that is hard to estimate by hand.",
 "outcome": "The user gets a steady temperature field and the thermal stress in the bracket from one coupled run.",
 "steps": [
  "Download FieldCraft from the latest release or open the browser version at tangency-labs.github.io/fieldcraft.",
  "Choose File, then Samples, and open Heated bracket (heated-bracket).",
  "Press Solve and let the steady heat and thermal stress run finish.",
  "Inspect the temperature and stress contours, and read the check description in docs/examples.md."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the FieldCraft repo at tangency-labs/fieldcraft, run the heated-bracket sample with `fieldcraft --sample heated-bracket` and solve it. Report the peak temperature and peak thermal stress, and verify the stress results against the reference described in docs/examples.md before reporting.",

 ],
 "difficulty": "Beginner",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The sample is a single steel bracket with fixed boundary conditions, so results apply to that setup and not to other materials or loads without a new model.",

 "requirements": [
  "A computer running macOS, Windows or Linux, or a web browser for the no-install option",
  "The FieldCraft app from the latest release, or Rust 1.95 or later to build from source",
  "For the agent workflow: an MCP-capable AI agent such as Claude Code and the fieldcraft-cli binary"
