55. I LS DYNA Output Guide Introduction LS DYNA is a nonlinear explicit and implicit two and three dimensional finite element code for solid structural and fluid mechanics to simulate dynamic static heat transfer electrostatic and electromagnetic problems developed by Livermore Software Technology Company The focus in this manual will be on those features in TrueGrid that are specific to creating a LS DYNA input file The TrueGrid User Manual covers the creation of a mesh and will not be covered in this manual This manual is incomplete in another way because it cannot be used as a substitute for the LS DYNA manual For a full understanding of the use of these features the user must have a working knowledge of LS DYNA and be familiarity with a LS DYNA User Manual A common source of confusion is the notion ofa part and a material A LS DYNA part is equivalent toa TrueGrid material In contrast a TrueGrid material is defined using the Isdymats command Then any group of elements a region in the part phase of an element set in the merge phase can be assigned this material Also in contrast a TrueGrid part is formed using the block or cylinder command A TrueGrid part can contain many different materials or many TrueGrid parts can all be assigned the same matterial Font Conventions Different fonts are used through out this manual to indicate their meaning A literal is highlighted in bold A symbol to be substituted with a lit
