Software - Livermore Software Technology (LSTC) located in Livermore, CA develops the following suite of software
LS-DYNA: known worldwide as the most advanced general
purpose nonlinear finite element program - capable of simulating complex
real world problems. Implicit, Explicit, SMP and MPP imbedded in one
code. LS-DYNA is optimized on all platforms and can also run on MPP
platforms - Unix, Linux and PC based.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LS-PrePost: an advanced interactive program for
preparing input data for LS-DYNA and processing the results from LS-DYNA
analyses. The user interface is intuitive and easy to use. All data and
menus are designed in a logical and efficient way to minimize number of
mouse clicks and operations. LS-PrePost runs on all Unix/Linux
workstations and MS Windows computers utilizing the OpenGL graphics
standard to achieve fast rendering and XY plotting.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LS-OPT: allows the user to structure the design
process, explore the design space and compute optimal designs according
to specified constraints and objectives. The program is also highly
suited to the solution of system identification problems.
The graphical tool LS-OPTui interfaces with LS-DYNA and provides an
environment to specify optimization input, monitor and control parallel
simulations and post-process optimization data as well as viewing
multiple designs using LS-PrePost

LS-DYNA Dummy Models: Crash test dummy models simulate
the human body response related to crash impact. Due to the importance
of dummy models in a number of fields and the need for full scale, low
cost, availability to their LS-DYNA users, LSTC is developing dummy
models for LS-DYNA Users.
