 # ABAQUS
 
 ## Overview
 
-ABAQUS is a commercial finite element software system. In this wiki it has three roles: it is used as a comparison reference in the dynamic buckling thesis, its theory manual documents finite element procedures and formulations, and its analysis user guide documents the practical input-file, job-execution, resource-control, and output workflow.
+ABAQUS is a commercial finite element software system. In this wiki it has six roles: it is used as a comparison reference in the dynamic buckling thesis, its theory manual documents finite element procedures and formulations, its analysis user guide documents the practical input-file and procedure workflow, its material guide documents production constitutive-model selection, its elements volume documents production discretization selection, and its interactions volume documents prescribed conditions, constraints, contact, and radiation interactions.
