 Files and scripts for the use of [`Code_Aster`](https://code-aster.org) in IFC-driven FEM analyses
 
-### File Organisation

+## File Organisation

+## Scripts:

 - [`ifc2ca.py`](ifc2ca.py): a python script to extract and create a `json` file from an `ifc` file
 - [`scriptSalome.py`](scriptSalome.py): a python script to run in the [`Salome-Meca`](https://www.code-aster.org/spip.php?article303) environment. Creates the geometry and the mesh of the structure
 - [`scriptCodeAster.py`](scriptCodeAster.py): a python script to create the input file (`.comm`) for Code_Aster
+- [`scriptSalomeBonded.py`](scriptSalomeBonded.py): a python script to run in the [`Salome-Meca`](https://www.code-aster.org/spip.php?article303) environment. Creates the geometry and the mesh of the structure by bonding together all structural elements (no connections are considered)
+- [`scriptCodeAsterBonded.py`](scriptCodeAsterBonded.py): a python script to create the input file (`.comm`) for Code_Aster for the "bonded" case
 
-#### Analysis Models
+## Analysis Models
 
 A number of analysis models with all the relative input/output and script files are provided in [this repository](https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/analysis-models) within the IfcOpenShell Organization

+- Add salome and code_aster script files for a "bonded" case, meaning all connections between elements are considered fixed. This allows to consider exported ifc files from commercial software that do not include connections between surface elements (see building_02 example)

 - Add orientation for point, curve and surface geometries
 - Calculate final geometry and orientation based on object placement transformation
 - Add warnings in the json file to show any corrections considered while parsing the ifc file from ETABS with a model with rigid links
 - Reduce file size by adding material and profile db in the json file and referencing them in the element objects
 - Implement internal releases for curve-to-point connections with any arbitrary orientation

 - Calculation of section properties for I symmetric profile if not provided (assuming fillet radius is zero)
 - Added geometry of planar structural surface members
 - Refactored the ifc2ca.py script

 - Added advanced meshing script to correctly simulate connections and independent meshing of structural elements (no common nodes)
 
 ##### 26/02/20
+
 - Changed section to profile and added I profile
 - Modified material and profile schema with mechanical and common properties
 - Added geometry identification for point connection from representation
 - Added connections along with supports based on the number of elements a connection is applied to
 
 ##### 09/02/20
+
 - First implementation for straight structural curve elements and point connections
