ANSYS LS-DYNA time integration

Submitted by mechanicaldesign on

Good afternoon,

 I have a trouble when I want to made a simulation using ANSYS LS-Dyna, because first of all my model implicate couple 200000 elements, which means 2 parts in contact and second part which must interact with first 2 part.

I made a surface to surface contact using automatic contact. After that I made an array table where I put time (0,1) and accereration of gravity (0,9.81). Other applied constrants are on nodes where the component is fixed. So, I used for output frequency 50 .

I have some doubt about during of solution, because tell me that my problem during couple 47 hours to resolve it. My system have a quad core i7 processor, 12 gb memory ram, and 2 harddisk in raid0, windows 7 64bit. 

 I think somewere is some problem with the setting. But were? How I can reduce the time?

 I waiting your advice or opinion. Somebody can explain me?

 Best regards.

You can manage your ansys settings in product launcher, where is work space setup. Try to change the workspace and database memory.

Other posibility is that, you can change which timesteps should ansys write to input file, if every timesteps, or you can choose some posibilities in solution controls in ansys menu.
