input sheet to define the specific geometry and type of flaw. Fatigue Assessment

I should avoid making the software sound like a magic solution. Show that Alex had to adapt and maybe encounter some initial hiccups but then succeed. Also, emphasize the software's features in a natural way within the story context.

Make sure the story has emotional beats—Alex's frustration, determination, relief, and eventual triumph. Maybe include a scene where the client is impressed by the successful prototype.

Cracked software is frequently unstable. In FEA, where precision is everything, a subtle "glitch" in the solver could produce "safe" results for a design that is actually at risk of bursting.
