# Abstract

The Example Problems Manual supplements the User's Manual and the Theory Manual.  The
goal of the Example Problems Manual is to reduce learning time for complex end to end
analyses.  These documents are intended to be used together.  See the User's
Manual for a complete list of the options for a solution case.  All the
examples are part of the Sierra/SD test suite.  Each runs as is.

The organization is similar to the other documents: How to run, Commands,
Solution cases, Materials, Elements, Boundary conditions, and then Contact.
The table of contents and index are indispensable.

The Geometric Rigid Body Modes section is shared with the Users Manual.
