Patrick Doelfs, Dr. Ingo Neubauer MSC.Software GmbH, D-81829 München, Patrick.Doelfs@mscsoftware.com Within MSC.Nastran 2005 an Explicit Solution Sequence, the so-called SOL700 is introduced. Based on LS-Dyna’s proven explicit FEM-Solver, it makes accessible explicit solution techniques to the users of MSC.Nastran. This article briefly summarizes the basic functionality of the implementation.
