Stevens, B.L.; Crane, Nathan K.; Lindsay, Payton L.; Day, David M.; Dohrmann, Clark R.; Hardesty, Sean H.; Bunting, Gregory B.; Walsh, Timothy W.; Smith, Chandler B.

This document presents tests from the Sierra Structural Mechanics verification test suite. Each of these tests is run nightly with the Sierra/SD code suite and the results of the test checked versus the correct analytic result. For each of the tests presented in this document the test setup, derivation of the analytic solution, and comparison of the Sierra/SD code results to the analytic solution is provided. This document can be used to confirm that a given code capability is verified or referenced as a compilation of example problems.
