Article What is the difference between *CONTACT_AUTOMATIC_ SINGLE_SURFACE and *CONTACT_AUTOMATIC_GENERAL ?
 
Article Will the mesh coarsening affect the accuracy of springback prediction?
 
Article Why dynamic relaxation doesn’t seem to work at times?
 
Article Why does the restart of the springback analysis not work?
I attempted to restart the springback analysis from the d3dump01. The springback analysis was not performed even though the “message” file shows that the analysis terminated normally. What causes this problem and how can it be fixed?
Article When we do springback analysis, we have two choices to do it, i.e. using implicit and explicit method (dynamic relaxation). What is the advantage of using the implicit method in springback analysis?
 
Article When the constraint contact is used, the calculation crashes during the forming analysis. What needs to be done to prevent this?
 
Article When I used the seamless method to do both forming and springback analysis, a converged solution wasn’t obtained. I don’t want to repeat the forming analysis. Is there a way I can repeat the springback analysis from the previous output files?
 
Article When I used switch method in my calculation, I used explicit method and then I changed to implicit method. In the later implicit calculation process, it was seen that the contact didn’t work properly. What was the problem, and how can I avoid this?
 
Article When I used implicit method to do springback analysis, the iteration information was not output or displayed in the screen. I think this iteration information is important for me to monitor the convergence status. How can I display this information?
 
Article When I used coarsening, I found that there is an error message:’ Something is wrong, sub: nextele’. What is the problem, and how can I avoid it?
 
Article When I use the implicit method to do springback analysis I cannot obtain a converged solution no matter what I’ve done. Do I have some other choices to obtain a converged solution for springback prediction?
 
Article When I use mesh adaptivity in my stamping simulation I don’t know how to define the proper adaptive frequency. Would you please give me some suggestions?
 
Article When I use FEA, I don’t know how big the mesh size should be. Would you please tell me what is the proper mesh size?
 
Article When I use constrain method (SOFT=4 in the FORMING_ONE_WAY_xx card), the calculation terminates immediately, what is the problem?
 
Article When I trimmed the mesh after forming, I only used one trim curve (in IGES format), but LSDYNA found 10 trimming curves. Accordingly, the result was not acceptable. What was the problem?
