The numerical simulation developed using an explicit dynamics software (ANSYS) was extensively compared to an experimental standard testing program of final prototypes.
To improve the mould design by an efficient numerical tool, an explicit 3D software has been developed to perform efficiently the injection simulation.
The conditions of test obtained experimentally were simulated using Dytran a non-linear finite element explicit analysis software implemented to the simulation since this mimics the characteristics of the behaviour of the crashworthiness.
The results were obtained from a finite element (FE) model of the defective bearing solved using an explicit dynamics FE software package, LS-DYNA.
Below each category, explicit sentences from software architects are also indicated.
The explicit finite element software PAM-CRASH was used to predict the crushing failure of these energy absorbing elements.
A new 3-D constitutive model is developed for finite element simulations of plain weave composites (PWC) structures and implemented in the explicit finite element software DYNA3D.
Strength analysis was performed using commercial explicit finite element software to calculate distribution of loads in the net cage due to current, weights and gravity.
A user-defined material subroutine VUMAT has been incorporated into explicit Abaqus FE software to enhance the damage simulation, which includes Hashin criteria for degradation of the panel stiffness with failure onset criteria and fracture mechanics.
