short_description: CAD in the browser that carves parts to their stiffest shape
ScriptCAD: online demo
Parametric CAD in the browser on NVIDIA's open-source SMLib kernel (USD BRep), with stress analysis and Carve: it removes the material that does the least work until the shape with the most stiffness for its weight is left.
The demo opens with the Bone-inspired lounge chair. Press Run all, then Carve under Remove unused material. Every step is a real stress solve on your own GPU, in your browser.
- Browser: a recent Chrome or Edge on a computer (it needs WebGPU). A dedicated GPU is fastest; the chair at Fine resolution takes about 5 minutes on an RTX 5070.
- Online limits: the Script tab and voice commands are off, and the server is shared, so it can be slower when busy. For everything, install it on your own computer: github.com/rubenhekkens/scriptcad.
