LS-DYNA Compact: Introduction to LS-DYNA

The simulation tool LS-DYNA offers a vast range of application possibilities when investigating strongly non-linear static and dynamic processes, such as crash analysis or metal-forming investigations.

The introductory webinar series address simulation engineers without any prior LS-DYNA or LS-PrePost knowledge and gives a quick introduction to both. In particular, we focus one the basics of computer simulations, the input-deck structure as well as commonly used element types and contact definitions. In addition to the technical background, examples serve to deepen the knowledge.

Please note that you need LS-PrePost and a valid LS-DYNA license to run the examples on your computer.
