I am looking for a sample analysis showing the workflow in Anys Workbench LS-DYNA that shows the set-up when using the SPG method. Are there any?

Hello Patrick,

The SPG workflow is very simple; mesh the body with regular finite elements and use a section to define the SPG body:

The LS-DYNA solver will use SPG particles located at the nodes instead of the finite elements.

You will find SPG examples here:

You can download models by clicking on the [in] link:

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

Reno.

Thanks. I thought it looked pretty simple to implement. I've tried downloading the file you pointed out but nothing downloads. I get a "not found" message.

My application is very close to the "cutting" example. That won't download either.
