The author acknowledges the technical contributions <strong>of</strong> L.M. Taylor and D.P. Flanag~ who developed the<br />

PRONTO architecture and provided the framework from which SANTOS is derived. Much <strong>of</strong> this manuz.1 is<br />

derived from their original PRONTO manual. Signitlcant contributions to the development <strong>of</strong> SANTOS were<br />

made by several <strong>of</strong> the early users. J.G. Argiiello and G. W. Welhnan ran the various versions <strong>of</strong> the code and<br />

provided constructive feedback about its performance and capabilities. Greg Sjaarderna produced the early scripts<br />

and system procedures that provided the users with an easy way to run the code. Martin Heinstein took a new look<br />

at the contact surface problem and significantly improved both the location and application phases <strong>of</strong> the contact<br />

surface algorithm. H. S. Morg,an’s early work in integration <strong>of</strong> unilled-creep-pla.sticity models provided the basis<br />

for integrating the time-dependent constitutive models. The efforts <strong>of</strong> the many other individuals who ran early<br />

versions <strong>of</strong> the code and provided helpfid comments are gratefully acknowledged.<br />

This report was prepared with the support <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Waste</strong> <strong>Isolation</strong> <strong>Pilot</strong> <strong>Plant</strong> (WIPP) Project. The support <strong>of</strong><br />

WIPP Principal Investigator B.M. Butcher is acknowledged,
