Overview of the Sandia National Laboratories Engineering Analysis Code Access System
The Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) Engineering Analysis Code Access System (SEACAS) is a collection of structural and thermal codes and utilities used by analysts at SNL. The system includes pre- and post-processing codes, analysis codes, database translation codes, support libraries, UNIX{trademark} shell scripts, and an installation system. SEACAS is used at SNL on a daily basis as a production, research, and development system for the engineering analysts and code developers. Over the past year, approximately 180 days of Cray Y-MP{trademark} CPU time have been used at SNL by SEACAS codes. The job mix includes jobs using only a few seconds of CPU time, up to jobs using two and one-half days of CPU time. SEACAS is running on several different systems at SNL including Cray Unicos, Hewlett Packard HP-UX{trademark}, Digital Equipment Ultrix{trademark}, and Sun SunOS{trademark}. This document is a short description of the codes the SEACAS system.
