SimCenter research applications can now be accessed through a web portal that runs simulations on DesignSafe computing resources. This new option complements the traditional downloadable desktop applications, which allow simulations to be performed locally or on DesignSafe.

The web portal version is designed for a simplified user experience, making it ideal for:

• Classroom and teaching environments,
• Users with restrictions on software installations (e.g., institution-owned computers),
• Devices with limited resources (e.g., Chromebooks.

To see how it works, watch our short video, "Running a SimCenter Application in Your Browser Using DesignSafe Resources." This tutorial walks you through accessing, launching, and running a SimCenter application directly in your browser—without the need to download or install software. It covers:

• Logging in and launching an application,
• Uploading and managing files,
• Running a complete workflow using DesignSafe resources.

Take advantage of the virtual application for the latest versions of SimCenter research applications quoFEM, EE-UQ, Hydro-UQ, WE-UQ, and PBE to execute your simulations.
