Dear Colleagues,
The software of SuperMC can make a conversion between CAD files and input files of FLUKA, MCNP, TRIPOLLI and GDML, the following information is from the developers of SuperMC. I hope my email is helpful.

Super Monte Carlo Simulation Program for Nuclear and Radiation Process (SuperMC), Welcome to try!
Dear Colleagues:
This email aims to introduce the Super Monte Carlo Simulation Program for Nuclear and Radiation Process (SuperMC), which had been developed by FDS Team (www.fds.org.cn/en/).
SuperMC was developed to be applied to physical design and safety analysis in advanced nuclear energy and nuclear technology application system. It was a multi-functional, intelligent, accurate and easy-to-use nuclear design optimization and safety assessment software for nuclear systems. It was designed to perform the comprehensive calculation of radiation transport, depletion, radiation source term/dose/biohazard, material activation and transmutation. The latest version can accomplish neutron, photon, and coupled neutron-photon transport calculation. The featured capabilities include automatic modeling of geometry and physics, visualized analysis and virtual simulation, and cloud computing services. SuperMC can be applied in criticality and shielding design of nuclear facilities, and medical physics analysis.
SuperMC has been verified and validated with more than 2000 benchmark models and experiments, including ICSBEP, SINBAD, and ITER Benchmark etc. It has been widely used in 50 nations, and has been applied in 23 major nuclear engineering projects including ITER, European DEMO, FNSF, KASTAR, HPR1000 and ADS, etc.
Currently SuperMC can be obtained free for trial. If you are interested, please contact service_at_fds.org.cn to obtain a copy of SuperMC.
We hope that this email was of some assistance to you. If otherwise, please accept my apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Hi Marlon
It would be remiss of my to not point out but NASA are currently funding The University of Wisconsin-Madison to integrate the DAGMC (Direct Accelerated Geometry Monte Carlo) [
http://svalinn.github.io/DAGMC/]toolkit into Fluka.
DAGMC takes CAD geometries in ACIS (*.sat) format, following procedures called imprinting and merging which compare entities for topological equivalence and then merge the duplicates together. Its the imprint and merge step that removes the numerical issues that Chris was talking about. We then use the ACIS faceting engine to generate (millions) of triangles and we store them in a mesh database. Using Oriented Bounding Boxes (OBB) we can accelerate the ray firing to be pretty close in timing to a native geometry system.
The work is very complete and stable in the MCNP space where we have done CAD based particle transport at UW for about 10 years now mostly for complex fusion geometries. We hope to have news on the integration of DAGMC into Fluka soon.
If you have any further questions please ask.
Thanks
Andy

Dear experts,
I would like an update regarding this 2010 discussion:
http://www.fluka.org/web_archive/earchive/new-fluka-discuss/2726.html
I’ve seen some of yours studies with entire sites simulated at Fluka, I wonder if they have been drawn without importing from a CAD file.
Currently, Is using SimpleGeo and creating bodies from a 2D background image still the best way to generate complex geometries for Fluka?
