This page should help you answer three major questions: #Which
- Which code do I need to use?
...
- How do I get it?
...
- How do I use it?
Codes are divided into the following categories:
Code Family | Description |
|---|---|
CAD & Meshing | Tools to make computer drawings and models (2D & 3D) of whatever you want. These include tools for creating line drawings, solid models of 3D objects, and creating meshes on 2D & 3D models for input into other finite element solvers. |
Data Postprocessing & Visualization | Tools to help extract useful data from large datasets, and to help visualize complex sets of data |
Fluids & Heat Transfer | Tools to model fluid and energy transfer through materials and systems |
General Solvers / Libraries | General purpose frameworks and libraries to help get other things done, and multiphysics frameworks that apply to many different types of problems |
Materials Performance | Tools to model the performance of materials, corrosion, chemistry, and radiation damage |
Reactor Physics | Neutronic analysis tools, for steady state, depletion, fuel shuffling, accidents, and reactor operation |
