FLAC3D and client-server network

申请资金用于购买伊塔斯卡三维连续体快速拉格朗日分析软件包和一个客户机-服务器网络。FLAC 3D软件将被用作UBC计算地质力学研究中连续介质建模的主要框架之一。该软件，沿着所要求的计算设施，将补充该集团在使用PFC 3D许可证方面的能力，该许可证是在2006年通过Shuttle等人的另一个NSERC-RTI提案购买的。FLAC 3D（2个席位）和PFC 3D将安装在所要求的服务器上，学生将能够访问代码，并在他们的工作站上使用客户端-服务器网络（1台服务器，4台客户端）运行模拟。FLAC 3D的三个可选模块：动态选项、C++插件选项和蠕变选项。

Funding is requested to purchase the Itasca Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua in 3 Dimensions (FLAC3D) software package and a Client-Server Network. The FLAC3D software is to be used as one of the main frameworks for continuum modeling in computational geomechanics research at UBC. This software, along with the requested computational facilities, would complement the capabilities of the group in using the PFC3D license, which was purchased in 2006 through another NSERC-RTI proposal by Shuttle et al. FLAC3D (2 seats) and PFC3D will be installed on the requested server, and students will be able to access the codes and run their simulations using the client-server network on their stations (1 server, 4 clients). Three optional modules of FLAC3D have been requested: dynamic option, C++ plug-in option and creep option.
