LS-PREPOST

This week end objective is to learn LS-PREPOST, a pre- and post-processing software for LS-DYNA. The software is still in an extensive development; still many things to do. It seems to offer fantastic functionalities. Can do a lot of things; but now, it seems developers are striking to add features as much as possibles. As a result, the software is quite buggy. 

I learn all functionalities the software has, including ability to display the strain rate, which is a very useful info in learning viscoelastic material response. I think, I should use the software later to help my understanding concerning response of viscoelastic materials.
