CARES/LIFE

CARES/LIFE - Ceramics analysis and reliability evaluation of structures life prediction program, calculates the fast-fracture reliability or failure probability of monolithic ceramic components as a function of their service lives. CARES/LIFE can analyze a wide range of materials, allowing the finite element model reliability to be a function of many different ceramic material statistical characterizations. Written in ANSI FORTRAN 77 to be machine independent. A winner of NASA's 1994 Software of the Year Award. PROGRAM NUMBER: LEW-16018
