<p>Hello everyone.<br>Could you please tell me how to simulate an explosion near beam elements?<br>If I use DATABASE_BINARY_BLSTFOR, it doesn't record the explosion distortion data. The LOAD_BLAST_ENHANCED and LOAD_BLAST_SEGMENT maps are also useless for beam elements.<br>Which maps should I use?<br>Thanks.</p>
<p>Hello everyone.<br>When using the LOAD_BLAST_ENHANCED and LOAD_BLAST_SEGMENT_SET maps, you need to select a set segment in LOAD_BLAST_SEGMENT_SET. How do you set beam elements there? For example, if an explosion occurs near a network of beam wires.</p><p> </p>
<p>Hello,</p><p>I am performing an operation akin to forming-springback-cutting using an SPH part. In reality, it is an impact followed by a slow speed material test, so the SPH part undergoes large deformations.</p><p>I'm attempting a multi-stage simulation, but the second simulation always terminates with some form of a system or MPP error during initalization. I've tried adding a long damping period to the first test, and have also tried explicit dynamic relaxation and implicit springback using both restarts and dynain methods. However, whatever I do the "cutting" simulation never runs past initialization. </p>
<p>Hello everyone. I'm simulating a body impact with a mesh using beam elements in LS-Dyna Workbench.<br>Everything works. Now I decided to add an explosion when the body hits the mesh.<br>1. I selected the time when the body hits the mesh.<br>2. At this time, I activate the LOAD_BLAST_ENHANCED map. I set the explosion location using the element selector, I also set the explosion center and the explosion strength. But nothing happens.</p><p> </p><p></p><p>I also tested without the impacting body, simulating only the explosion on the mesh, and nothing happens:</p><p></p><p>Why? What's wrong?<br>Thank you.</p>
<p>Good morning everyone,</p><p>I am new to LS-DYNA. I would like to learn LS-Dyna. It would be very much appreciated if anyone could help me with a direction or a learning path to get started.</p><p>Thank you very much in advance.</p><p>Yu</p>
