Research direction
Start with the error-handling path used when running an analysis through the FEM-Design API, using the calcGmax example as the reproduction case. Check how a model without LoadGroups is handled before FEM-Design becomes stuck. Done means the invalid analysis fails with a clear, recoverable error instead of leaving FEM-Design stuck.
