Interactive Plotting of NASTRAN Aerodynamic Models Using NPLOT and DISSPLA.

Abstract

The computer program NPLOT is extended to permit interactive plotting of NASTRAN doublet lattice aerodynamic models. In addition, a translator is developed between Precision Visuals DI-3000 plot package and ISSCO's DISSPLA plot package to permit NPLOT to be run at facilities that support only DISSPLA. The resulting package is useful as a general debugging tool for NASTRAN aerodynamic analysis and as an integral part of nuclear vulnerability model generation programs developed in previous work.
