VPG Solutions Using MotionView

The MotionView® product has been extended in version 6.0 to support LS-DYNA input and output. MotionView is a template based pre and post processor with a long history in the automotive industry. An example of an automotive handling event, and several examples of durability events will be shown. A vehicle model with a complete powertrain (engine and transmission) will be simulated, to demonstrate the “plug and play” templated model methods used by MotionView. The Altair Swingset benchmark problem will be run in LS-DYNA, and the results of this will be shown, to illustrate a consumer products application of the tool.
