Challenge

Week - 1 - Consistency of Units

AIM:

The aim of the challenge is to convert the SI units systems of the given quantities with all the different types of parameters and also to tabulate the unit systems for all the different types of the unitssystems.

Objective:

The goal of this challenge is to convert the given quantity values for the multiple units sytstems and also build table so that it may be utilised frequntly without any problem in the futher of executing the difficulties of Ls Dyna because LS Dyna doesn't have a default system.

System of units:A system of units is a set of related units that are used for calculations.For examples,in the MKS system,the base units are the meter,kilogram and second,which represent the basic dimensions of length ,mass and time.

1 Kilogram = 1000 grams = 0.001 tonne = 0.068 slug
1 meter = 1000 millimeters = 100 centimeters = 3.28 feets
1 second = 1000 milliseconds = 10 microseconds

The parameters to which different units to be assigned are:

Mass = 1kg
Length = 1m
Time = 1s
Force = 1N
Stress = 1 Pa
Energy = 1 Nm
Density = 1 Kg/m
Young’s Modulus = 210 GPa
Velocity = 56.33 kmph
Gravity = 9.88 m/s
The units in which the different parameters are to be converted are as follows:

Kg cm ms
Kg cm s
gm mm ms
kg m s
g cm s
g cm us
g mm s
ton mm s
slug ft s
kg mm s
g cm ms
kg mm ms

1.Conversion of SI units to kg cm ms:

Mass=1kg

Length =1m

100cm

Time=1 sec

1000ms

Force=1N

Force=Mass*acceleration

=1kg*1m/s^2

=(ikg*100cm)/(10000ms)^2

=10^-4(kg*cm)/ms^2

Conversion factor=10^-4

Stress=1Mpa

1pa=1N/m^2

As from the above derived 1N=10^-1(kg cm)/ms^2

={10^1(kg cm/ms^2)}/(100cm^2)

=10^-8kg/cm ms^2

Conversion factor=10^-3kg/cm*ms^2

Energy=1Nm

1N*1m

(10^-4 kg cm/ms^2}*100cm

10^2kg cm^2/ms^2

10^-2kg cm^2/ms^2

conversion factor=10^-2

Density =1kg/m^3

1kg/(100cm)^3

1/(1000000)cm^3

10^-6kg/cm^3

Conversion factor=10^-6

Young's Modulus =210Gpa

1pa=10^-3kg/cm*ms^2

1Gpa =10^9*10^-3kg/cm*ms^2

210 Gpa=210*10^6kg/cm*ms^2

Conversion factor =10^6

Velocity 56.33 Kmph

km/hr

1km=10000cm=10^4cm

1hr=60min*60*1000

3600000

36*10^5ms

1kmph=(10^4)/(36*10^5)

=0.00277cm/ms

56.33kmph=56.33*0.00277cm/ms

=0.1560cm/ms

Gravity=9.88m/s^2

1m/s^2=100cm/(1000ms)62

=10^-4cm/ms^2

9.8m/s^2-9.8*10^-4cm/ms^2

conversionFactor=10^-4

Tabular Data

LS-DYNA doesn't have a default system of units. User needs to input material properties and physical dimensions according to a consistent system

of units as per their choice. This warrants that to use LS-DYNA in different circumstances, users has to be conversant with converting quantities

from one system of units to another.
