LS PrePost Tutorial Mesh, Material and Fixed Holes on a Bracket

Type 72 instead of 72e9 for Young's modulus, and your aluminium bracket acts like rubber. LS-DYNA gives no error and no warning. The model just runs. In this video we build the bracket in LS-PrePost. You will learn: ✅ The 4 steps every LS-DYNA model needs: shape, mesh, material, supports ✅ How to import an IGES file and mesh it with the Auto Mesher (2 mm elements) ✅ How to make an aluminium material card (*MAT_ELASTIC) and why LS-DYNA has no units, only numbers ✅ How to fix the four bolt holes with an SPC (single point constraint) ✅ 4 mistakes to avoid and 3 checks to do before you add the load This episode stops before the load and the solve. Read the pinned comment: it covers the part and section step that the recording does not show. Model file (Bracket.iges):https://drive.google.com/drive/folder...
