Week - 3 Drop test Challenge
AIM:
To run a error free termination and to perform the simulation for the given model when it impacts the ground, by analyzing the stress.
Procedure:
- Constrain the ground for impact using the boundary-> spc and lock all the degrees of freedom for the section
- Set free the translational motion in z direction for the phone to impact.

- Assign the initial velocity in initial-> velocity by providing the value to be -10000mm/s in z translational

- Create new section id by creating new section for both the ground and the phone.
- Assign the elform2 and the sec id’s respectively

- Create the material properties for both sections
- For phone mat -> Piecewise Linear Plasticity is created and assigned by providing the properties of steel.

For ground of impact mat-> rigid is assigned and the same material property is assigned.

- Go to part in the keyword manager assign both the section and material cards to the parts

- Create a new contact card under automatic surface to surface as phone body results in contact with the surface.
- Define the control termination card for the and assign the end time as 0.05s

- Define the output such as d3plot and define the dt as 0.0001s

- Perform a model check and if no error or warning shows save the model and run the file in ls program manager until an error free termination occurs.

- Open the file in ls pre-post under d3plot and run the animation.
- Use the post processing command to obtain results in the model through visual animation as shown below.

Result:
Thus an error free termination of the model is obtained and the results are compared using graphs and animations..
