2024 International LS-DYNA Conference: Dynas+ Engineering Products Showcasing Innovation in Simulation

A Global Platform for Numerical Simulation

Dynas+ Engineering Products was honored to participate in the 2024 International LS-DYNA Conference, held on October 23-24, 2024, in Metro Detroit, Michigan, USA. This prestigious event brought together leading simulation experts and industry professionals from around the world to share advancements in CAE technology.

Groundbreaking Presentations from Dynas+ Experts

Our team contributed two transformative papers that highlighted the versatility of DEP MeshWorks and its seamless integration with LS-DYNA and LS-OPT for real-world applications.

1. Optimizing Helmet Design for Safety and Efficiency

Presenter: Vincent Lapoujade, CTO
Paper Title: Fast Study of Multiple Sizes Helmets and Design Shape Optimization using LS-DYNA, LS-OPT, and DEP MeshWorks

This study, inspired by practices in industries like sports and security, demonstrated how DEP MeshWorks streamlines the design and testing of helmets. Using morphing and mapping features, the software enables rapid creation of models in different sizes from a single CAD source. Coupled with LS-DYNA and LS-OPT, this methodology automates shape optimization to meet stringent safety standards while significantly reducing development time.

Why it Matters:

Reduces the reliance on costly physical tests through advanced numerical simulation.
Allows for quick iteration across multiple product sizes, ensuring safety compliance with minimal cost and time.
Relevant for industries where safety and efficiency are paramount, such as sports and automotive sectors.
