      Hello,

      I requested the usermat version of LS-DYNA from my institution's software office, from the link found in here: https://ftp.lstc.com/anonymous/outgoing/support/FAQ/user_defined_materials.faq. However, after receiving the files, the file types were unexpected, and different from what the previous posts and user manual has mentioned. 

      They provided me with a folder named "ls-dyna....mpi" and inside were only a license folder, and 3 executable files named l2a, lstc_client, and ls-dyna...mpi. Are these the files I should be expecting, and if so, how do I use them?

      Thanks
