Shock analysis

Hello Everyone,

 

I have a load curve for few miliseconds in terms of acceleration. I have to find the shock being transmitted through the body in terms acceleration. So is it correct to use transient analysis in Optistruct? or should I go with explicit using Radioss?

 

Regards,

Bharat

    Hi Bharat,

     

    Since the time period is very very less, I think Explicit analysis may be good enough.

    Hello prakash,

     

    Is there any limit for time step so as to use Optistruct rather than Radioss (or Transient implicit instead of explicit)?

     

    Thanks and Regards,

    Bharat
