LS Dyna constraint application
LS Dyna constraint application
(OP)
I try to understand the LS Dyna example problem by studying http://www.dynasupport.com/tutorial/getting-starte... started. I wonder how we apply the boundary conditions? The problem explains the block is sitting on the floor: lower z-face of the block. For me that means that this face is fixed but I cannot see such a constraint in the listing. How the software understand the BC? Postprocessing the results also shows that in transverse direction a lateral face is fixed while and the other face is deformed : x-face of the block. How the software apply this constraint on the model? Are these really constraints?

If you are using lsprepost you also get a good description for each field in the keywords and is very useful. There are also some tutorials at www.lstc.com/lspp
