• Summary
AUTODYN Release 11.0
• Release 11.0 is a major step forward in continuing

the User Friendly, Easy to Use tradition AUTODYN
development
• (over v6.1 almost worth 5 levels)
• Integrated into ANSYS Workbench
– Access to CAD Geometries (Geometry IF)
– Quick and easy geometry generation (DM)
– Access to classic FEM models (FE Modeler)
– Access to powerful meshing (Meshing and A*I)
• Continued enhancements to AUTODYN solvers,
material models, pre/post processing
Outline

• ANSYS Workbench
Procedures
What is ANSYS Workbench?
• A framework for performing multi-disciplinary

simulation
What is ANSYS Workbench?
• Data is shared between applications

• Project page manages files and applications
Bidirectional CAD Associativity
• We must use, and re-use your CAD models,

and ultimately drive changes in your designs
Parameters from CAD to WB
Parameters from WB to CAD
CAD Integrated, CAD Neutral
• Primary modeling is done in CAD

• Bi-directional parametric link

ICEM CFD / AI*E Overview
• Available inside ANSYS Workbench

(Advanced Meshing app.), or standalone
• Targeted at high-end analysts, with specific
needs for meshing which handles:
– Complex geometry
– Dirty geometry
– CAD and STL geometry
– Hand-crafted mesh
– 3rd party solvers
Workbench - Guiding Principles
• CAD-connected (but agnostic)

• Parametric
• Persistent
• Highly-automated meshing
• Meshing that’s aware of the applied physics
• User has ability to “drill down” to control mesh
methods, controls
• Independents zones are “neighbor aware”
Outline

• ANSYS Workbench
Procedures
Enhancements to the Solvers
• New trajectory based 3D contact algorithm

– Increased flexibility (no external gap)
– Significant efficiency improvements
• Group Contact (in addition to Part Contact)
– Select faces to participate in contact
– Erosion redefines face
• Extended material models for ANP-Tet
• Automatic Mass Scaling
– Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy (CFL) time step saved
for each element. (Maximum scaling: 100)
• New pressure equilibrium option for Euler
• HP-MPI message passing for Parallel Processing
(Linux only)

• Simple thermobaric representation
Hyperelastic Rubber Model
• Neo-Hookean
• Mooney-Rivlin
• Yeoh
• Ogden

Hyperelastic Rubber
Powder Equation of State
• Slowburn (Powder) EOS a two phase model

• The material is modeled prior and after ignition as solid
and gaseous states
• The release of energy depends on the reaction rate
JWL Miller Extension
Release of additional energy

from burning of Aluminium (Al)
and ammonium perchlorate
(AP) particles after the
explosives are detonated
Outline

• ANSYS Workbench
Procedures
Enhancements to Pre/Post
• Improved memory management for pre- and

post-processing
• Results files for more efficient post-processing
– selected results only resulting in small files.
• Better compression of binary data files
• Interactive selection of Parts
• Interactive selection of Gauges
• Euler & SPH Material Fill with Unstructured Parts
• New System of Units (English and Micron)

Procedures
New Installation and Licensing
Licensing
• FLEXnet licensing system is used.

• Install the ANSYS License Server on any
computer running an operating system
supported by FLEXnet (Windows, Linux,
Unix).
• The computer running AUTODYN must be
set up as an ANSYS Licensing client and
have TCP/IP access to the license Server.
• The authorization codes required to run
ANSYS AUTODYN and other ANSYS
products are distributed by E-mail.
Information Needed for Licensing
• The ANSYS License Utility available from

http://www.ansys.com/services/license_hostid/default.asp or as part of
the installation must be run on the computer that will be the license
server to obtain system information that will be used to create your
license file.
AUTODYN Licenses Issued
• For each AUTODYN-2D dongle a FlexLM license will be provided that will allow:
– 1 instance of a full AUTODYN-2D pre-processing or post-processing or
execution
– 1 instance of an AUTODYN-2D pre-processing or post-processing only, no
execution
• For each AUTODYN 2D and 3D dongle a FlexLM license will be provided that
will allow:
execution
execution
– 2 instances of an AUTODYN 2D or 3D pre-processing or post-processing
only, no execution
– 2 HPC licenses that will enable AUTODYN-3D to run in parallel on 2 CPU’s
– ANSYS Workbench
– Meshing
– FEModeler
– DesignMoldeler (Optional)
New Appearance
• The appearance of AUTODYN Release 11.0

is different than v6.1
• There is no AUTODYN icon placed on the
desktop
• There is no AUTODYN Group in the
Start/Programs menu.
• To start AUTODYN, first start ANSYS
