Engineering codes are used to provide system-level simulations based on reduced equation sets such as:

  • Potential flow simulations

  • Hydraulic transient analysis

  • Analytical models

  • Total system performance analysis

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) develops and enhances algorithms for a broad range of applications such as:

  • Penetration analysis

  • Shaped charge analysis

  • Blast pressure loading

  • Weapon target interaction

  • Hydraulic transient analysis

  • Droplet dynamics simulation
