The Loci Multidisciplinary Simulation System Overview and Status

This paper will discuss the Loci system, an innovative tool for developing tightly coupled multidisciplinary three dimensional simulations. This presentation will overview some of the unique capabilities of the Loci system to automate the assembly of numerical simulations from libraries of fundamental computational components. We will discuss the demonstration of the Loci system on coupled fluid-structure problems related to RBCC propulsion systems.
