Hello everyone,

I have a question regarding the created K file by LSDYNA:

Does the selected version affect the outcomes  like the plots.

Because I have two files with different version created 4.6 and another 4.7 , when I run both it give me not exact matching plots. 

I know that in 4.7 there are additional inputs added to the keycard, but does that make a big difference.

Hello User,

Generally, there shouldn't be any difference. What exactly are the differences you are referring to? I would check both .k files in any text editor like Notepad++ and compare them side by side. Let us know how this goes.

Regards,

Nanda.

here I compared the two K files: the left one is the new generated file with version 4.7.7 which has inside each card new added parameters (and the curve is with Purple down), and the right one is version 4.6.5 (the curve with blue). Does these make a differences in the putput curves.
