Optimizing Solution Time for Drop Test Simulation in LS-DYNA – Lesson 10

How to shorten LS-DYNA solving time during drop test if drop height is considered in simulation?

Other than mass scaling & coarsening the mesh, we can optimize the solving time by changing deformable package to rigid before the impact and during actual impact by making back to deformable as shown in the attached example.
