I didn't add the figures since not all are going to be kept. It will depend on my capability to generate decent plots for the contact elements, elements, geometry, etc. I will use pyvista as much as I can.

This needed a minor patch to ansys-mapdl-reader and a few other tweaks, but it's finally ready to go.

Nice work!

If we keep getting examples like these, we might consider moving them to a pymapdl-techdemos repository and link it to our examples page. We can then build it nightly.

I agree, maybe a different repo makes. However, since they are static, it is not 100% needed.

If we were going for dynamic examples 100%. Still, I'm not into making the techdemos dynamic (some takes many MANY hours)
