For the MKS unit system;

In the LOAD_BLAST_ENHANCED control card, there is an input "M" which means mass and for 1 kg charge, we input the value of "1".

However, in the LOAD_SSA control card, there is an input as  "W" which means weight and for 1 kg of charge, should we input the value of "9.81" because in the MKS units, weight is kg.m/s^2 ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @mmerts

I apologize for not seeing this. I'm not familiar with blast-type simulations in LS-Dyna. I looked into it though and could not get an answer for you. Did you get this figured out?

Unfortunately, i could not find the answer in the LS_Dyna manuals too. 

I have also texted this question to Ansys learning forum but the answer was not satisfying.

Thank you for your interest.
