i have structure of busbars from Auto-cad, i want to make it into Fasthenry, but script it in Fastmodel is complex, so i want to use Matlab to do it, make a input file for Fasthenry for any structure of busbars from Cad. i can read CAD into Matlab with Stl.file,but how can i make a file for Fasthenry with Matlab ? any suggestions ?

What is "structure", "busbars", "Fasthenry", "Fastmodel"? Which script?
Please edit the question and explain:
  • What is the available input (a file? which format?)
  • What do you want to do with it (import to Matlab? To which format?)

busbars is a power electronics laminated busbar. Fasthenry and Fastmodel are a software as ElectroMagnetic solver. details see https://www.fastfieldsolvers.com/software.htm. the input is stl.file from Autocad,i want to change it into inp.file for Fasthenry.

Not sure if you could convert stl file to inp.file format for Fasthenry. But there is a MATLAB function "stl2vrml" that helps you convert STL to virtual world file. Please see the documentation link below:
