DEVELOPMENT OF A PROTOTYPE WEB-BASED SFSI SIMULATION TOOL

A prototype simulation tool has been developed which provides a web-based, interactive, user-friendly, finite element analysis capability. Though closely coupled to experiment design for a NEES-sponsored test facility in Southern California, the simulation tool can be thought of in general terms as a framework for the remote computation and visualization of finite element results. The development of the prototype simulation tool is based upon the Model-View-Controller design pattern, and the project is based upon an open-source, platform independent philosophy that facilitates the adaptation and distribution of the tools developed. The simulation tool can be accessed at http://nees.usc.edu.
