FROM LS-PREPOST TO LS-DYNA : AN INTRODUCTION: LS-Dyna for Beginners with 13 step by step solved examples

Description

LS-DYNA is one of the best explicit finite element application software made by Livermore Software Technology Corporation (LSTC) which is used by engineers to predict impact, crash, and explosions scenarios. Vibrations, fluid flow, fluid structure interaction and many more engineering problems can be solved by using LS-DYNA. Present book guides the user step by step to solve problems of diverse nature using LS-PREPOST and LS-DYNA. A set of 13 solved examples have been presented with clear instructions in such a manner that the beginners can easily equip themselves with a deep knowledge of LS-PREPOST and LS-DYNA. This book is especially designed to help the undergraduate and post graduate engineering students in the fields of mechanical, manufacturing, and other related fields. Practicing engineers who are going to solve transient dynamic problems in engineering would find this book extremely helpful. Review: Excellent Skilled Author - I have had the pleasure of learning how to solve LS-DYNA problems using LS-PrePost through a well-skilled professor and highly experienced user. This book taught me how to employ the core features when solving a variety of LS-DYNA problems. It even entails the analysis of implicit problems, such as the modal analysis of a part. I now have more versatility whether I am designing or analyzing a component, validating experimental results, or testing theory through LS-DYNA, explicit or implicit. This book has given me more insight when using LS-PrePost to correctly set-up an input file to run through the LS-DYNA solver. I feel that I can solve any explicit or implicit problem using LS-DYNA by referring to the author's book. Whether you are a new-comer, or advanced professional, this book should be highly considered. A great tool for your tool-box. Review: Complete waste of $ and time. Stick to LSTC's website tutorials. - Any of the reviews giving positive rating are fake nonsense, which is common for any product on desertcart with few reviews. There is zero explanation for anything done in these tutorials, or what any of the options in LS-DYNA do. It's a step-by-step tutorial that is not even very well done, not to mention that it is horribly out of date from the current (or even past few) version of LS-PrePost. I could not imagine a worse tutorial to try and learn from. In short, this would be a waste of $ even if it was only $10. You are better served with the current tutorials found on LSTC's website. Do not waste your time or money on this nonsense.
