ASME VVUQ 60.1 provides guidance to computational physics simulation software end users for evaluating and selecting simulation software appropriate for their intended application of interest. The selection should be guided by the level of risk associated with the application of interest. The software can be based on theoretical formulations or empirical data. Before selecting a particular simulation software (either commercial, open-source, or developed in-house), the end user must know its theoretical basis, dependability, and limitations relevant to the end userâ??s application of interest. This Guideline outlines some matters that the end user can take into consideration during the software selection process. A series of questions are also included to help the end user assess the suitability of the simulation software by weighing responses based on the risk associated with their application of interest. The scope of this Guideline is limited to computational physics simulation software. It does not offer guidance on other software. ASME VVUQ 60.1 has been developed to provide guidance to end users to evaluate simulation software based on its functionality. Other aspects such as cost are not considered. This Guideline is not limited to any physics or any specific engineering application.
