Models for Automotive Applications



Finite element models for almost all standard parts in auto motive testing are available as already prepared input files. Depending upon the requirements different levels of details and different degrees of validation are available. The parts are often third party products and come usually with software support from your local distributor. LSTC makes a conscious effort to provide free basic models for frequently used dummies and barriers. These models are available to all LS-DYNA licensees.
