Introduction to Explicit Dynamics using LS Dyna

This lecture presentation explores the concept of explicit dynamics and the importance of simulation in dynamic problems. It starts with examples of dynamic simulations and explains the type of applications that LS Dyna would be suited for. It also covers topics like applications and characteristics of implicit vs. explicit methods, equations of motion and solution methods, energy summary, hourglassing and mass scaling. Furthermore it includes a set of bonus slides which briefly discuss material models.
