TRACC Application Software Overview

TRANSIMS
The Transportation Analysis and Simulation System (TRANSIMS) is a set of travel modeling procedures designed to meet state departments of transportation and metropolitan planning organizations´ need for more accurate and more sensitive travel forecasts for transportation planning. The Federal Highway Administration, Federal Transit Administration, Office of the Secretary of Transportation, and the Environmental Protection Agency funded the development of TRANSIMS. ... read more ...
STAR-CD
STAR-CD is a mature high-performance computational fluid dynamics (CFD) environment that has been licensed for TRACC from CD-adapco. STAR-CD can perform reliable analysis of complex, multiscale transport phenomena in realistic industrial systems. STAR-CD is well suited to the solution of large-model simulations that benefit from efficient solution algorithms, memory utilization, and scalability on multiple processors. ...read more ...
STAR-CCM+
STAR-CCM+ is CD-adapco´s newest CFD software product. It uses the well established CFD solver technologies available in STAR-CD, and it employs a new client-server architecture and object oriented user interface to provide a highly integrated and powerful CFD analysis environment to users. ...read more ...
STAR-Design
STAR-Design is a basic CFD software program by CD-adapco that includes the functions needed to create the surface geometry that can be used in simulations in the more advanced software packages STAR-CCM+ and STAR-CD CFD. ...read more ...
ANSYS FLUENT
ANSYS FLUENT's broad physical modeling capabilities have been applied to industrial applications ranging from airflow over an aircraft wing to combustion in a furnace, from bubble columns to glass production, from blood flow to semiconductor manufacturing, and from clean-room design to wastewater treatment plants. ...read more ...
LS-DYNA
The U.S. Department of Transportation´s (USDOT´s) current and near-future need for computational structural mechanics led the Transportation Research and Analysis Computing Center (TRACC) researchers to select the commercial LS-DYNA software, developed by Livermore Software Technology Corporation, as TRACC´s primary structural analysis tool. ...read more ...
ABAQUS®
The U.S. Department of Transportation´s (USDOT´s) current and near-future need for computational structural mechanics led the Transportation Research and Analysis Computing Center (TRACC) researchers to select the commercial ABAQUS software as one of TRACC´s primary structural analysis tool. ...read more ...
TrueGrid and NoMachine
As users develop complex models, it is critical to have model generation software that produces high fidelity meshes with computational accurate elements, that is, elements whose geometry have acceptable aspect ratios that ensure accurate results. ...read more ...
