"FEM tool is mostly used for non-linear problems."

5/5

What do you like best about Ansys LS-DYNA?

Ls-Dyna is a FEM tool primarily used to solve nonlinear problems such as crash analysis, bomb blast analysis, and high impact analysis. This tool is mainly used by the automotive industry for crash analysis and the defense industry for blast analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ansys LS-DYNA?

Ls-Dyna is not a useful tool for 3-D modeling like SolidWorks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ansys LS-DYNA:

A very useful FEM tool to solve non-linear problems like crash analysis and blast impact analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ansys LS-DYNA solving and how is that benefiting you?

To solve the response of the human body against a land mine blast when a blast occurs inside the vehicle. Conduct impact analysis in the case of a vehicle accident. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Highly powerful software but finite element understanding is required"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Ansys LS-DYNA?

The software is highly powerful and widely used in industries. this software saves a lot of money and time in production and prototyping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ansys LS-DYNA?

This software needs a lot of inputs and understanding for us to give and inputs and also to understand the output. a small mistake can cost us huge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ansys LS-DYNA:

A user friendly guide inside the software would be of a great help. I would recommend to strengthen the basis in finite element and then use the software as the result make more sense and also the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ansys LS-DYNA solving and how is that benefiting you?

We understand the failure and calculate the factor of safety for the loads on the designed component or assembly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
