摘要: The Transportation Research and Analysis Computing Center (TRACC) with the National Highway Safety Administration (NHTSA) Vehicle Safety Research has established an interagency agreement between the U.S. Department of Transportation and the U.S Department of Energy to provide assistance to NHTSA's ongoing projects. The work will be performed in FY 2013 by the Transportation Research and Analysis Computing Center at Argonne National Laboratory. The project will be performed under the Work for Others (WFO) clause of the prime contract between the operator of Argonne National Laboratory (UChicago Argonne LLC) and the U.S Department of Energy. For the past five years, NHTSA has been using TRACC's HPC computer and participating in computational structural mechanics training classes. NHTSA mainly used the LS-DYNA software package including: LS-DYNA (multiphysics solvers), LS-OPT (optimization tool) and LS-PrePost (pre- and post-processing tool). NHTSA crash analysis researchers were early users of the TRACC cluster and have become the most active users of TRACC's 500 core LS-DYNA software license. The large core-license-pool allows NHTSA to minimize the time needed to obtain simulation results and, thus, expand modeling variations that must be considered to ensure credible treatment of crash events while meeting critical project deadlines. The purposes of this project are (1) to enhance future cooperation between NHTSA and TRACC and (2) to secure NHTSA's access to TRACC's high performance cluster, LS-DYNA and TRACC's staff expertise.
