LS-TaSC
A Topology and Shape Computation tool developed for engineering analysts who need to optimize structures
LS-TaSC
LS-TaSC® is a Topology and Shape Computation tool which is used to optimize the topology of parts for non-linear problems involving dynamics loads and contact condition. It can be implemented to find a concept design for structures analysed using LS-DYNA.
GENERAL CAPABILITIES
- Solid design using first-order hexahedrons and tetrahedral elements
- Shell design using first-order quadrilateral and triangular elements
- Global constraints
- Multiple load cases
- Dynamic load case weighting
- User-defined load cases
- Tight integration with LS-DYNA
- Large models with millions of elements
GEOMETRY DEFINITIONS
- Multiple parts
- Extrusions
- Casting, one sided
- Casting, two sided
- Symmetry
POSTPROCESSING
- Design histories
- LS-PrePost – plots of the geometry evolution and the final design
- Iso-surfaces: Surface containing final optimal structure
