LS-DYNA is used to solve multi-physics problems including solid mechanics, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics either as separate phenomena or… more
Contact treatment forms an integral part of many large-deformation problems. Accurate modeling of contact interfaces between bodies is crucial… more
Under some circumstances the displacements calculated by the finite element method are orders of magnitude smaller than they should be, a… more
A material is said to have deformed plastically if it doesn’t return to its original shape after the load is removed. The most common application for… more
This is a suite of tutorials with the aim to get new users up and running with using primarily LS-DYNA and LS-PrePost for explicit and implicit analy… more
