<strong>LS</strong>-<strong>DYNA</strong> Manual Section: *CONTROL_ENERGY<br />

Example of: Bar Impact<br />

Example Filenames: bar_impact.key<br />

Description:<br />

A copper bar strikes a wall.<br />

Model:<br />

A 1/4 symmetry bar measures 0.32 cm in radius and 3.24 cm in length and contains 972 hexahedron<br />

element. The bar starts at 0.0227 cm/sec and stops at 0 cm/µsec. The calculation illustrates the<br />

energy balance where E = KE + IE + HGE.<br />

Input:<br />

The hourglass energy is computed at a negligible cost. (*CONTROL_ENERGY) The initial<br />

velocity for every node is set to -0.0227 except the nodes at z = 0.<br />

Results:<br />

The displacements and plastic strains are provided in the figures. The balance of energy is shown<br />

in the last figure.<br />
