Hi,

 

I am going to investigate a time vs acceleration curve for a crash situation through lsdyna output. I have tried 'glstat' in *database_option key word, but there is no acceleration option output in hyperview. Which key word or which image under key word should I use?

Many thanks.

    Hi, Thomas

    make an outputblock indicating positions(nodes) you want to survey acceleration

    the values (pos, vel, acc) will be output to NODOUT file

    set output interval for NODOUT in DATABASE_OPTION

    if I do not set the nodes set, does it mean the nodes will be the output from where the rigid wall set?

    what do you mean?

    output of accel does not relate to rigidwall setting, see keyword manual
