Hi

You said:

”Basically all I would need is the MAT_117 but I am not sure if this is included in LS-DYNA within the ANSYS workbench.”

 

This material is or at least should be included in the LS-Dyna system in Workbench (I do not see why it should not) – you just need to define a Keyword Snippet (LS-DYNA) under the relevant part in geometry tree (in the keyword snippet one needs to define the MAT117 material card (C11,etc….)).

See here for an example on a Keyword Snippet (LS-DYNA) MAT definition:

All the best
