コース概要
For efficient and successful working with Structural Mechanics (VPS)/PAM-CRASH, a solid understanding of the basic algorithms of an explicit code, as well as of the essential program options, are necessary. Therefore, after a short overview of the history of crash simulation and the general capabilities of Structural Mechanics (VPS)/PAM-CRASH, the course will give an introduction to how to solve structural problems with explicit time integration. Subsequently, all options will be explained, which are required to perform a standard crash simulation. The course is accompanied by exercises.
対象
Engineers that use Structural Mechanics (VPS)/PAM-CRASH to solve dynamic structural problems.
コースの目的
Learn about and understand the basic aspects of crash simulations. Discover how to set up a simple component crash model step by step with all essential options, evaluate the results, and confirm their plausibility.
