Definition
Solver Unit Draw: "In-App licensing draws Altair Units per job. The number of Altair Units required to run solver jobs varies depending on the number of the CPU cores and GPU cards, and how many jobs are running concurrently."
Counting rules
Per-job draw by core band (for OptiStructFEA and Radioss: 30 AUs for 1-4 cores, 35 for 5-8, 40 for 9-16, up to 100 for 513-1024, +10 per doubling). Concurrent jobs of the same solver on one server are multiplied by a decay factor (1.0 for job 1, 0.9 for jobs 2-10, down to 0.4 above 50). First invoke levels with running GUIs; extra jobs of the same solver stack.
