About LS-OPT

LS-OPT is a stand alone optimization software and can be linked to any simulation code. It is perfectly suitable in combination with LS-DYNA. LS-OPT is a product of LSTC (Livermore Software Technology Corporation). LS-OPT provides a clearly arranged graphical user interface (GUI) for definition of optimization and stochastic analysis problems. LS-OPT is available for Linux, Windows, and some UNIX platforms.
