Oasys LS-DYNA Environment Automotive Crash Modelling

Duration: 3 Days

This course (previously known as the Advanced Crash Analysis course) has been completely revised with a greater emphasis on the automotive crash analysis and how Oasys LS-DYNA can be used to examine whether an automotive structure will meet the requirements. Workshops are run throughout the course which use the Oasys Suite of programs.

Course contents is as follows:

• Overview of crash analysis
• Finite Element Modelling of vehicles in LS-DYNA
  • Guidance on mesh generation
  • Material and section data inputs
  • Connections - spotwelding, joints and springs
  • Modelling rigid parts and rigid connections
  • Defining accelerometers
  • Constraints, initial velocity and boundary conditions
  • Contacts and rigid barriers
  • LS-DYNA output definition
• Model checking
• Running LS-DYNA jobs
  • Runtime of an analysis
  • Speed-up via multi-processor runs and mass-scaling
  • Restarting analysis
• Post-processing analysis results
  • Comparison to test
  • Displacements, velocities, accelerations, deformed geometry, stress & strain, reaction forces, energy
  • Command files and automatic post-processing
  • Debugging models and trouble shooting
