The period of performance for this effort is a 12-month base with four (4) 12-month option periods. The contract will be in support of the Applied and Computational Mathematics Division (ACMD) development of computational models based on finite elemental methods (FEM) to solve mechanical, heat transfer, electromagnetic, fluid-structure interactions problems of complex engineering and biological structures. TrueGrid is the only system that performs semi-automated grid generation for structures, producing as output, grids which can be used as input to more than 30 analysis codes utilized at NIST. This system is necessary to continue on-going research efforts initially began in 2002. Continued use of XYZ Scientific Applications' TrueGrid system will reduce frequent source of error mistakes and in reducing said error mistakes is critical in supporting NIST's uncertainty quantification studies.
