MatCal Users Guide
Welcome to the MatCal Users’ Guide. If this is your first time using MatCal, start at Introduction to learn what MatCal is and what it can do for material model calibrations. The remaining chapters provide details on the tools available within MatCal including general overviews on what they can be used for, some light background on theory and implementation details. Many of these chapters also include verification and user examples. The final chapter is the User API Documentation that gives standard API documentation for user facing tools.
To run MatCal at Sandia see Running MatCal at Sandia. We also allow you to import MatFit. See Running MatFit.
If you have any problems or feedback, feel free to reach out to the MatCal developers by email. Also, email us to be added to the matcal-users-group metagroup for emails about updates and new releases.
