Crashworthiness Analysis with Abaqus
This course is the ideal way to obtain a working knowledge of how to use Abaqus for crashworthiness analysis. The course is ideal for users who are already familiar with other crash codes and would like to transition to Abaqus. The course does not cover the use of preprocessors and introduces you to the analysis capabilities of Abaqus using the keyword interface. The course uses examples derived from actual industrial applications to reinforce the concepts and issues discussed in the lectures.
