TAURUS: An Interactive Post-Processor for the Analysis Codes NIKE3D, DYNA3D, TACO3D, and GEMINI. Revision 1

摘要

This report provides a user's manual for the post-processor, TAURUS. TAURUS reads the binary plot files generated by the two and three dimensional finite element codes currently used at LLNL and plots contours, time histories, and deformed shapes. Contours of a large number of quantities may be plotted on meshes consisting of plate, shell, and solid type elements. TAURUS can compute a variety of strain measures, reaction forces along constrained boundaries, and momentum. TAURUS is operational on the CRAY-1, 7600, and VAX computers. (ERA citation 09:035001)
