FCLib: The Feature Characterization Library

Gentile, Ann C.; Kegelmeyer, William P.; Ulmer, Craig D.

The Feature Characterization Library (FCLib) is a software library that simplifies the process of interrogating, analyzing, and understanding complex data sets generated by finite element applications. This document provides an overview of the library, a description of both the design philosophy and implementation of the library, and examples of how the library can be utilized to extract understanding from raw datasets.
