- Report
  This module creates the .tex file based on the LaTex formatting system by using various methods that work on the report, such as addFigure, addSection and addTable.
- Adb
  The role of this module is to create an interface to the Acudb module for opening and extracting the last AcuSolve solution database, and transferring its data to the report and plotting them.
- 2D Plot
  This module defines the curve method for drawing an interpolated curve and the plot method that plots the curve(s) into an image file.
- 3D Plot
  The 3D plot part role is used to show and change the 3D visualization view of the problem.
- Example of .Rep File
  The .rep file may look something like the example shown below.
- Run Time Options for AcuReport
  Each program requires zero or more command-line options to run.
