On thedevelopment of the interactive information and modeling system for gas dynamics and multidisciplinary research

Abstract

This paper describes the general idea and implementation of the improved Interactive information and modeling system (IIMS) – an integrated environment that combines computational modules for modeling aerodynamics and aerothermodynamics of re-entry space vehicles with a large collection of various information materials on this topic. The paper describes and illustrates changes to the internal architecture and interface of the system. Examples of computation and information windows are presented together with the integrated visualization system. The sys-tem has a unified implementation for Windows and Linux operation systems and can be deployed on any modern high-performance personal computer. Support of personal computers based on the Elbrus architecture has also been implemented.
