ANSA/LS-OPT/META
The current versions of LS-OPT and ANSA support simple coupling between ANSA and LS-OPT. For example, ANSA offers excellent possibilities for parameterized changes to FE meshs by means of morphing technologies. The control parameters for morphing are passed to LS-OPT and modified and controlled there. Due to this, form optimizations or robustness analyses taking into account geometrical changes can be implemented very easily. In addition to this, any optimization variables desired can be defined in the FE input files in ANSA and be passed to the optimization process in LS-OPT.
Furthermore, the META post processor from BETA CAE Systems can be used to extract simulation results, which can then be automatically imported by LS-OPT as history or response quantities. This is of particular interest if FE solvers other than LS-DYNA are to be used for optimization.
Content:
- Short introduction to the morphing technologies of ANSA, Live demo with examples
- Application of the task manager in ANSA for the optimization
- Definition of design variables in ANSA
- Interface in LS-OPT for ANSA
- Use of META for simulation data extraction for LS-OPT
- Practical examples
This infoday shows how ANSA and META can be used together with LS-OPT for optimization and stochastic analyses. Examples from industrial practice will also be presented.
