Dear Andrei,
Consider a simple object, like a thick round flat disk, laying down
on its back on 3 small equidistant support points. Disk diameter
about 300 mm, thickness about 50 mm. Due to gravity, the disk will
sag a little around the supports.

How would you calculate sagging in every point on the top face of the disk?

Well, there are may FEM system that can do such calculations, and every
user will have different preferences in selecting one.

As a quick example I have simulated a steel slab under dead weight with
Tochnog. All details are under this link:

Hi Andrei,

If you'd like to try getdp as the solver, there are examples in the getdp wiki.
