This study investigated the Finite Element simulation of blast loading using LS-DYNA. The objective is to identify approaches to reduce the requirement of computation effort while maintaining reasona...
The simulation of the quasi static compression test was successfully performed using LS-Dyna. LS-Dyna provides many material models for different types of foams [16]. However, based on previous work by Ozturk and Anlas [12], the best candidate for modeling EPS crushable foam is MAT_CRUSHABLE_...
