Title: Finite Element Analysis Program
Developer: R.L. Taylor, Department of Civil Engineering, University

ABAQUS is a general purpose finite element analysis program which is widely used to analyses mechanical, structure and civil engineering problems. Abaqus has some special feature for analysing fracture mechanics problems, and therefore it is a main tools for the FE-analysis in the Fracture Group at the Mechanical Engineering at Glasgow Universtity. The software which can transfer
data from Abaqus into a Matlab readable environment has been developed as a part of a research program in Constraint Estimation in Fracture Mechanics. This research program was funded by a grant from the Defence Research Agency through Prof. J. Sumpter.
The Reed-Somolon code is specified by the finite field, the length
(length <= 2^m-1), the number of redundant symbols (length-k), and
the initial zero of the code, init_zero, such that the zeros are:
init_zero, init_zero+1, ..., init_zero+length-k-1
a program that takes in three arguments: the first one represents the size of an array that will be
created the second one represents the maximum value that each of the array elements can have the third
one represents the position in the array that you would like to print the value of.
