The research equipment is for a workstation system for modeling of              structural systems using large-scale simulation softwares.  The                 principal investigators are active in the areas of finite element               analysis, expert system development, and the nonlinear modeling of              structures and components under impact loading conditions.                      Significant ongoing contributions are in the area of the accurate               prediction of the response of structures and components used in the             building, automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding, and manufacturing                industries.  A very important emphasis is on the accurate prediction of         the fatigue life of structures and components in the presence of flaws.         Another emphasis is on the development of accurate simulation schemes           for the optimal design of such structures for efficient performance and         cost reduction.                                                                 The system is capable of large-scale computations at a fast pace, allows        access to the LISP environment, possesses excellent graphics                    capabilities, exhibits the advantages of desktop stand-alone systems,           allows easy networking with more powerful computers and upgrading with          changing needs, uses the latest technology, and handles development work        efficiently.
