1. Engineering problem definition

The goal is to control local stress concentration and deformation in the components that carry the door’s own weight.

2. Physical understanding / conceptual model

The mechanism is modeled in terms of its center of mass, joint effects, and contact regions.

3. Analytical calculation and engineering assumptions

Assumptions are set out in the preliminary calculation and a simplified model is built.

4. CAD model

TODO: CAD model to be added.

5. Numerical model and boundary conditions

TODO: Finite element model and boundary conditions.

6. FEA / analysis results

TODO: Stress and displacement outputs.

7. Mesh independence / convergence study

TODO: Mesh independence verification.

8. Validation against analytical/theoretical/literature results

TODO: Validation step.

9. Design comparison / parametric study / optimization

TODO: Parametric study.

10. Engineering discussion and conclusion

TODO: Conclusion and discussion.

This sample page should display the PDF download and GitHub link.

TODO: The gallery images below are placeholders — update the file paths in the images field once real FEA/CAD outputs are added.
