Pre-processor Software for Calibration of LS-DYNA Material Models
نویسنده
چکیده
LS-DYNA contains a wealth of material models that allow for the simulation of transient phenomena. These models are often quite complex and difficult to calibrate. We present CAE Modeler, a generalized pre-processor software used to convert material property data into material parameters for different material models used in CAE. In this paper, CAE Modeler is used to streamline the conversion of rate dependent stress-strain data into material parameters for the MAT_024 material model. The interactive software is capable of handling all three rate dependency options of MAT_024 and outputs a data file that can be read directly into LS-DYNA. Support for other material models is envisaged.

متن کاملPerformance of the Hybrid LS-DYNA on Crash Simulation with the Multicore Architecture
Using crash simulation models, we investigate the multicore performance of the newly developed hybrid LS-DYNA, a method whose speedup arises from both shared-memory and message-passing parallelisms. Theoretically, the hybrid method gains performance advantages over the traditional, message-passing-parallel (MPP) LS-DYNA for two reasons. First, the addition of shared-memory parallelism to the me...
متن کاملStatic and dynamic axial crushing of prismatic thin-walled metal columns
In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to investigate the progressive collapse damage of prismatic thin walled metal columns with different regular cross sections, under the action of axial quasi-static and impact loads. The present work mainly focuses on implementation of some important factors which have been neglected in other studies. These factors include the effect of reducing impact...
