Since many years Ansys is engaged in code development for LS-DYNA. The material rules for composite materials were already implemented in 90s. Today, a small group is working for implementing new features and methods in LS-DYNA. Our capabilities cover the entire spectrum of FE technology. Parallelization and porting of the code is not carried out by us.
Examples for the implementation are:
- Material models for fibre composites
- Extension of the tissue material model for implicit calculation
- Contact for modelling of failing glue joints
- Bar/beam implementation (resulting) for asymmetrical cross-sections
- User-defined interface for friction under MPP
- User-Element interface
- General damage formulation with premature damage /initial damage
- Welding point models
- Material model with mixed hardening under cyclic load/stress
- Material model for cohesive links
- Material model for forming calculations: Hill 90
