Crash, Impact and Occupant Safety
Getting started with PAM-CRASH 2G
Reference: CRS-C-B

Level: Basic
Duration: 2-3 days (see local schedule for details)
Audience: CAE engineers, designers and specialists in structural crash and occupant safety.
Objectives: Learn to perform basic non linear dynamic impact simulations using PAM-CRASH 2G, the world's most widely used crash simulation software.
Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of the Finite Element method
Description: This course is an introduction to the explicit method and to the PAM-CRASH solver. Participants learn the different steps to perform a basic dynamic impact simulation. The focus is on practical exercises. A global overview of the capabilities of the code, illustrated by industrial applications, is presented.
Course content:
  • Introduction to crash simulation and overview of the modeling process
  • Integration scheme principle and piloting analysis with PAM-CRASH
  • Files organization
  • How to run PAM-CRASH
  • Common element formulation
  • Elastic plastic behavior law
  • Overview of all other material laws
  • Load, boundary and initial conditions
  • Contact modeling

 

Demonstrations and practical exercises throughout the course, using the Visual-Environment.
