Get StartedAnsys LS-DYNA, the industry-leading explicit simulation software used for applications like drop tests, impact and penetration, occupant safety, and more.
Course Overview:
- Suitable for experienced Ansys Mechanical users, this course teaches advanced skills in performing impact and drop test analyses.
- Learn to distinguish problems that should be solved explicitly versus implicitly, and perform all procedures for an explicit dynamic analysis.
- Identify and choose element types, materials, and commands used in explicit dynamic analyses.
- This class is beneficial to engineers who analyze problems involving contact, large deformations, nonlinear materials, high-frequency response phenomena, high-speed metal forming, ballistics, crash impact, or problems requiring explicit solutions.
