Overview

Drop testing is one of the most important stages of design and development of many products. Engineers conduct drop tests in a controlled setting in different orientations to evaluate if their designed product can withstand drop impacts. With numerical simulations, engineers can have better insight into the causes of failure in drop tests which enables them to take corrective measures. In this premium learning material, we will learn how to perform drop test simulations using Ansys Workbench LS-DYNA.

Learning Outcomes

Following completion of this premium learning material, you will be able to: 

  • Simulate the effects of dropping a product, or dropping something onto a product.
  • Account for complex contact and material nonlinearities that may result during drop tests.
  • Incorporate best practices for achieving efficient solutions while overcoming some of the more frequent challenges one might experience in performing such simulations.

Prerequisites:

  • A basic knowledge of the theory behind Explicit Dynamics Analysis is required.
  • A working knowledge of using Ansys Mechanical is required.

Estimated Time: 5 Hours.
