Abstract This paper presents an integrated simulation capability for accelerators including electromagnetic field and beam dynamics effects. The integrated codes include the parallel finite-element code suite ACE3P for electromagnetic field calculation of beamline components, the parallel particle-in-cell (PIC) code IMPACT for beamline particle tracking with space-charge effects, and the parallel self-consistent PIC code Warp for beam and plasma simulations. The common data format OpenPMD has been adopted for efficient field and particle I/O data transfer between codes. One application is to employ ACE3P and IMPACT for studying beam qualities in accelerator beamlines. Another is to combine ACE3P and Warp for investigating plasma processing for operational performance of RF cavities. A module for mapping the CAD geometry used in ACE3P to Warp Cartesian grid representation has been developed. Furthermore, a workflow has been implemented that enables the execution of integrated simulation on HPC systems. Examples for simulation of the LCLS-II injector using ACE3P-IMPACT and plasma ignition in SRF cavities using ACE3P-Warp will be presented.
