SALOME

Platform for Numerical Simulations

SALOME is an open source platform for integration, pre-processing, and post-processing of numerical simulations. It provides a comprehensive set of tools for creating complex 3D models, meshing, and visualization. SALOME is widely used in engineering and scientific research for tasks such as finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, and structural mechanics.

Features:

Geometry Modeling and Meshing

SALOME offers powerful tools for creating and manipulating complex 3D models. It provides capabilities for CAD modeling, allowing users to define geometric shapes, surfaces, and volumes. The software also offers meshing algorithms to discretize the geometry into smaller elements suitable for numerical simulations.

Integration and Pre-processing

SALOME allows users to integrate different simulation codes and software tools seamlessly. It provides an environment for setting up simulation workflows by defining input parameters, boundary conditions, and material properties. This integration simplifies the process of preparing simulations and ensures compatibility between various software components.

Post-processing and Visualization

SALOME offers advanced post-processing and visualization capabilities to analyze simulation results. Users can extract and visualize data such as scalar and vector fields, contour plots, animations, and deformation analyses. The software supports a variety of visualization techniques to facilitate the interpretation and understanding of simulation outcomes.

Collaboration and Multidisciplinary Work

SALOME promotes collaboration among engineers and researchers working on multidisciplinary projects. It enables the exchange of data and models between different simulation tools and facilitates the sharing of simulation workflows. The software supports common file formats and provides mechanisms for teamwork and version control.
