Additional Remarks

  • The modification of the *CONTROL cards of the dummy file may have an influence on the performance and robustness of the model. Therefore the *CONTROL cards of the dummy models are proposed for integrated simulations as well.

      Important flags on LS-DYNA control cards:

      *CONTROL_ACCURACY flag INN=2

      *CONTROL_BULK_VISCOSITY flag TYPE=-1

      *CONTROL_SHELL flag ESORT=1

      *CONTROL_SOLID flag ESORT=1

  • The model should be used with a timestep of 1 microsecond or less!     
  • If a model for right side impact is needed, please contact DYNAmore. RHD models in both systems of units are available.
  • All nodes are connected to an element, except the third beam nodes of the beam elements.
  • No massless nodes are present in the input file of the dummy.
  • The model is free of initial penetrations.
