Hexproj layout and mesh results

Layouts, realized hex meshes and quantitative results from independent model authors. Select a report to inspect drawings, element scaled Jacobian (SJ), iterations, time and usage.

Four revolved profiles: Astra, Opus and automatic mesher

8/8 independent model authors verified · 9/12 approach/part results valid · solid and hollow profiles with steps, chamfers and circular fillets.

Astra and Opus: five challenging parts

10/10 attempts complete · 9 counted meshes.

Complex Sonnet successes

8 complex passing layouts · 40,674 nominal hex elements · 10 full iterations · 119.31 author minutes · $15.36 Claude CLI usage

Visual-review model smoke

Sonnet5.5, Opus5.5, Fable5.1, GPT5.6Sol, GPT6Astra and GPT6.1Sol. Nine attempts complete, including a guided Sol retry; GPT costs are API-equivalent estimates.

Earlier model comparison

Independent Sonnet, Opus, Fable and Astra attempts, including failures.

Complex passing and failing parts

10 passing and10 failing examples under the frozen checks.

Reports label their shared SJ color range. The five-part and revolved comparisons use 0.2 to 1. Revolved meridian sections expose interior cells; isometric views show exposed faces. Raw nominal and doubled-density VTUs are available in the Sonnet report.

Geometry acceptance and visual observations are separate. No expert grades are assigned in these reports. Claude CLI usage and GPT API-equivalent estimates have different accounting bases.
