ASME V V 10.1 illustrates, by detailed example, the most important aspects of verification and validation (V&V) described in the Committee’s framework document “Guide to Verification and Validation in Computational Solid Mechanics” (V&V10-2006). The Guide intentionally omitted examples as its purpose was to provide “a common language, a conceptual framework, and general guidance for implementing the process of computational model V&V”, an already broad scope for a 25 page consensus document. The present document is the first in a series of more detailed and practical ones the Committee has planned to incrementally fill the gap between the Guide and a set of recommended practices.
