The following steps show how to get started with the Fortran Wrapper.

1. Prepare data: create an object of type ElasticModel and populate its properties such as TVD, BoreholeRadius, etc.

2. Determine what to compute:

   • Collapse mud weight or Fracturing mud weight?

   • If collapse mud weight, what failure criterion? MohrCoulomb, DruckerPrager, ModifiedLade, or StassidAlia?

3. If you want to get progress reports during the wrapper's computation, prepare an instance of type IProgressT. You can also tell the wrapper how often you want to get progress reports by specifying the progress interval.

4. Invoke the appropriate function in class FortranDllServiceT.

See examples:

• FortranDllServiceTComputeCollapseMudWeights

• FortranDllServiceTComputeFracturingMudWeights
