In this kickoff session, we’ll walk you through how engineers simulate a high-velocity bullet impact using Ansys LS-DYNA and FSI coupling.

Simulating Impact: Bullet Crash in Ansys LS-Dyna with FSI coupling

See how high-speed impacts are modeled for real-world testing – in minutes.

  • Description:
    Crashes happen fast and simulating them should be just as fast. In this kickoff session, we’ll walk you through how engineers simulate a high-velocity bullet impact using Ansys LS-DYNA and FSI coupling. From model setup to result visualization, see how automation tools help streamline what used to be a complex, multi-step workflow into an efficient and robust process. Whether you work in defense, automotive, or R&D, this session will show you what’s possible with modern explicit dynamics.
  • Episode Highlights:
    • Modeling explicit dynamics scenarios like bullet or vehicle impact
    • Using Ansys LS-DYNA for fast setup and simulation of crash events
    • Applying automation tools to reduce preprocessing time
    • Visualization of fluid-structure interaction effects like shockwaves, deformation, and penetration in real time
    • Applications in defense, automotive, or material testing workflows
  • Radu’s Message:
    “In this session, I’ll share how we usually set up and run an impact simulation in Ansys LS-DYNA and FSI coupling, using a few tools that help make the process quicker and more organized.”
