Greetings,

Would you please inform me on what would be the most efficient method to compute DELs from the UAE Phase VI data. My current approach is to export the data from MATLAB and use Crunch, but if you have a more efficient method please let me know.

Always thankful,
Scott Larwood

Hi Scott,

You could use MLife, which is more efficient than Crunch if you are processing a lot of files: nwtc.nrel.gov/MLife.

Best regards,

Even though it sounds like a life insurance policy, I will give it a shot. Thanks for the reply!

Do you have a recommendation for getting the UAE data into a format that MLife can use? Thanks.
