Part 1. The ANSYS/LS-DYNA software complex is considered, which combines the LS-DYNA calculation module with the means of preparing the initial data and processing the results in ANSYS. The purpose of the course of lectures is to teach the user the basics of using ANSYS/LS-DYNA to solve problems of solid state mechanics. This section of the course is devoted to the description of the differences between the graphical interface ANSYS/LS-DYNA from ANSYS. The book describes the types of elements of the LS-DYNA Explicit section and the types of materials used to solve solid-state mechanics problems. A number of examples are used to illustrate the material.:[edit ] [ They are accompanied by detailed explanations of the use of menu items. Part 2 . Part 3 . The description of the main elements of the graphical interface LS-PREPOST, means of adjusting some parameters, solving problems using LS-DYNA Solver, as well as means of visualizing the results of LS-PREPOST.
