  Hi Marchelle,
  
  When you installed Workbench 18.2, Did you choose LS-DYNA to be installed?
  
  You can check the install.log file under:
  
  c:Program filesAnsys Inc
  
  If unsure, please upload file to here.
  
  If it was not installed, you can rerun Setup.exe from your download and choose LS-DYNA only to install it.
  
  Best Regards,

  Hi George Karnos,
  
  Thank you for your help.
  
  I checked the install.log file,it looks like I have installed both AUTODYN and LS-DYNA,but the Explicit Dynamics(LS-DYNA Export) is still missing.
  
  Then I uninstalled the whole ANSYS 18.2 and reinstalled it with only ANSYS LS-DYNA selected in ANSYS Explicit Dynamics:
  
  But,it's still no use!
  
  Can you help me with other ideas,thank you.

  Hi Marchelle,
  
  You already have the Workbench LS-DYNA at the bottom of your Toolbox.
  
  Please use that module and open the Model, you should see options/features related to LS-Dyna in there.
  
  Thanks,
