  Hello alls,
  is it possible to use interactively LS-Dyna, for example : stop the calculation, then change material, insert a new part, modify a Lagrangian which would have too distended meshes, and of course restart the calculation ?

  Hello,
  
  Some modifications are possible using RESTARTS in LS-DYNA, but there is no fully interactive mode in LS-DYNA.
  Please see: https://ftp.lstc.com/anonymous/outgoing/jday/restart.pdf
  Also please see section Restart Input Data in Keyword User's Manual I - https://lsdyna.ansys.com/manuals/
  Thank you,
  Alex
