SLangTNG
Welcome to SLangTNG, the next generation of SLang, the structural language.
SLangTNG is an application suite which provides scientists, students and engineers a tool for
- linear algebra
- random number generation and advanced statistics
- numerical analyses
- structural mechanics using FEM
- visualization
- creating graphical user interfaces
- scripting using the Lua interpreter language
- etc.
SLangTNG is a scripting language for stochastic structural mechanics based on Lua. Actually, SLangTNG provides additional functionality by wrapping C++ functions (involving additional C and FORTRAN libraries) in such a way that the C++ objects and methods are accessible from the Lua interpreter. This is done by an automatic wrapping process using SWIG. In addition to the mathematical algorithms, there is a binding to a GUI providing an interface to the interpreter, symbols and visualization.
