@mrsmith glad to hear you got it worked out! Yeah sometimes certain material parameters act like switches for a material to change its core characteri...

@kemoo and your problem is that both of those contact forces are higher than the experimental data? Is it really noisy / are you filtering? If it’s do...

@kemoo do you have 2 separate surface to surface contacts for the top and bottom rigid plates?

Hi @kein_roboter, You can probably use a wide range of contacts for this. *contact_automatic_beam_to_surface, *contact_general etc.

Hi @kemoo, What type of contact is defined where you are trying to extract force? rcforc will not plot single surface contacts which might be your ...

Hi @mrsmith, Interesting question. I'm not familiar with this particular material but it looks like there might be other factors at play in terms o...

@justintime98 can you upload an image of your input keyword you are talking about?

Here's an alternative approach too. I'm looking into if Prepost can do what you need though. Also look into *inital_foam_ref_geometry. It's more...

Hi @justintime98, this is my personal experience, but I believe you need to import the dynain file into a preprocessor like Primer which converts the ...

Hi @filippo555, you probably have a thickness defined in your *contact as SST or MST. Or you have the parameter SHLTHK in *Control_Contact set to 1 wh...

@vamshi-mashetty-2 what type of solid mesh are you trying to create? Tetrahedrals or hexahedrals? And what type of geometry are you trying to mesh? De...

@javat33489 sounds to me like your unit system was in milliseconds instead of seconds?

Hi @harishameed, Did you make any progress on getting your model running?

Hi @kamrani, That PID is used only to help LS-Dyna identify that CNRB as a “part”. So, you want it to be a unique PID in your model.

Hi @kamrani, Sorry for the delay in responding. You may have figured out the solution by now, but this seems like something you could code up in Mat...
