ALE

Page 20: LS-DYNA recent developments

S-ALE Overview

• Structured ALE mesh automatically generated

• User specifies mesh spacing information along three directions

• Smaller input deck; Easier modifications to the mesh; Less I/O time.

• Shorter calculation time

• Sorting, searching faster and more efficient;

• SMP, MPP, MPP-Hybrid supported

• Redesigned algorithm enabled SMP parallelization and hence MPP Hybrid.

• Enhanced MPP efficiency

• More accurate and less memory

•A rewritten leaner, cleaner code using less memory to accommodate larger problems.

Implicit

Page 23: LS-DYNA recent developments

Implicit update

• Rotational Dynamics

• available since R8.0

• adds additional stiffness terms due to rotations including Gyroscopic and spin softening

• Enable the study of vibration of rotating parts (turbine blades, propellers in aircraft and rotating disks in hard disk drives etc.).

• Campbell Diagrams can be generated to represent system's eigen-frequencies as functions of rotating speeds.

Page 24: LS-DYNA recent developments

Implicit update

• Brake squeal

• Is the result of friction-induced vibration.

• Has been a challenging issue due to its immense complexity

• Complex eigenvalue analysis and transient analysis are the two

simulation methods used to investigate the brake squeal problem.

• With our complex eigensolver, LS-DYNA provides a multi-step

solution, a combination of the complex eigenvalue analysis and

transient analysis

Damping Ratio is defined as -2*Re(λ) / |Im(λ)|, where λis the eigenvalue. When negative, the mode is unstable.

Page 25: LS-DYNA recent developments

Reuse of Symbolic Factorization

• Very Large Models in MPP can have wall clock time dominated by the Symbolic Factorization (a serial bottleneck we are still trying to fix)• Customer was using 1024 MPI processes and 6 SMP threads for a 7M node

version of this fan blade model.

• Symbolic Factorization was taking 2600 seconds (WCT)

• Numeric Factorization was taking 150 seconds.

• As a short term fix we have implemented two enhancements. • The first enhancement is to monitor the matrix structure from matrix

reformation to matrix reformation. If the matrix structure is the same from the last numeric factorization to the current one we reuse the symbolic factorization.

• The second enhancement is an MPP only feature. We predict the contact pattern for penalty based (non-tied) contact to allow small changes in the matrix structure due to changes in the contactbetween time steps.

• Reuse reduced WCT for time step by over 90%

ICFD Solver Introduction

Page 28: LS-DYNA recent developments

ICFD for Drag Analysis

• This study applies ICFD to unsteady flow analysis in the pitching motion of a 1/4 scale car model.

• The model was based on a real production car and obtained by smoothing the body surface relative to that of the actual vehicle, and by removing elements such as the engine compartment, underside components, and the suspension.

• Of primary interest is the difference between the aerodynamic forces acting on adynamic car model versus a stationary model.

• The results are validated through comparisons with those obtained by high accuracy academic CFD codes with a computational grid of 48 million elements.

External Vent

• At the beginning of the bag inflation, the bag pressure may drop below

ambient pressure due to jetting. When IAIR=-1, it will allow external

vents to draw in outside air.

Page 48: LS-DYNA recent developments

It gives better speed opening rolled bags by tracking the gas front.

It stores the number of collisions from resident air and inflator particles

and uses this data to track the inflator gas front and rolled region.

Inflator particles do not transfer energy to resident air particles, to prevent

prematurely deploying the rolled region. The energy of the initial air

should be small compared with the incoming energy.

The tracking algorithm can be switched off and all features will become

the same as IAIR=2.

IAIR=4 is not a replacement of IAIR=2.

Rigid Body Mesh Check/Fix

• Element Normal Check / fix

– Mesh generators are not always reliable in giving high quality tool mesh (very long, overlapped elements, with inconsistent element normals)

– Manual repair by user in pre-processor is time consuming and error-prone

– Simulation with bad elements has high possibility to get unrealistic results

• Physical offset of rigid tools

– In stamping simulation, it is common both upper and lower tools overlap each other in the home position

– Negative offset is used (MST is negative)

– With penetration, contact can be confused. Occasionally, unexpected results are obtained

• Keyword: *CONTROL_FORMING_AUTOCHECK

– automatically check and fix the rigid body mesh

– Automatically offset the rigid tool physically based on the MST values specified in contact definitions

SEA is a statistical method for studying

vibration and acoustics in high frequency

ranges, without using elements or mesh.

In SEA a system is represented in terms

of a number of coupled subsystems and

a set of linear equations are derived that

describe the input, storage, transmission

and dissipation of energy within each

subsystem.
