Z-Bee - CAD-model

The company Clean Motion is developing “lean, clean and safe short-range vehicles”. The focus is on light weight electric composite vehicles.The first product of Clean Motion is the composite vehicle Z-Bee, see image.

DYNAmore Nordic has supported Clean Motion in the development of the crash safety of the Z-Bee through crash simulation with LS-DYNA.

We now have a local sales representative for LS-DYNA and Engineering Services in Finland, Insinööritoimisto Engineering Solutions. Regarding software support, please contact the head office in Sweden as before. Contact information for Insinööritoimisto Engineering Solutions is available on the contact page.

On the 7th and 8th of March we, Daniel Hilding and Mikael Schill, visited Luleå University and the Division of Mechanics of Solid Materials. We had together with the Division a half-day workshop on realistic simulation and LS-DYNA. The audience consisted of Researchers, Students and Local companies.

The Division has many researchers with a very long experience in advanced simulation and material modeling. We got an insight in how  LS-DYNA is used in reasearch projects involving mining applications, hot stamping, and modelling the phase transformation of metals.

DNV Materials Laboratory http://www.dnv.com/services/materials/ has selected LS-DYNA for welding simulations of offshore- and pressurized structures and components.

DYNAmore Nordic has together with specialists from DNV and Chalmers University of Technology* developed a new material model to accurately calculate the residual stresses in welded structures.The LS-DYNA implicit solves the coupled thermo-mechanical problem in less than one hour.

On February 1 the new DYNAmore office in Gothenburg is opened. The office is located in Lindholmen Science Park, which is strategically close to several customers in the automotive industry including Volvo Car Corporation. The first employee at the Gothenburg office is material modeling specialist Dr. Mats Landervik.

“During 2012 we are going to further expand the Gothenburg office as a part of our effort to further improve our service and software support to old as well as new customers in the automotive and offshore industries in the Gothenburg area.”, says the directors of DYNAmore Nordic: Daniel Hilding and Marcus Redhe.

We welcome able engineers with solid LS-DYNA experience to join our Gothenburg office!

We are pleased to announce the LS-DYNA Nordic Users’ Forum 2012, which will be held on October 11 at Hotel 11 in Gothenburg. We are expecting 200 attendee and  30 user presentations from all LS-DYNA and LS-OPT applications. The founder of LSTC, Dr John Hallqvist, has confirmed his presence as one of the keynote speakers.

We kindly encourage you to contribute by submitting a paper, please contact David Aspenberg david.aspenberg@dynamore.se

Dr Mats Landervik has joined our Gothenburg office. He will focus particularly on modeling and simulation of polymeric materials including foams and other applications in the automotive area. He has several years of experience from working in the automotive industry.  His thesis with the title “Modeling of Foams for Impact Simulations” concerns both macroscopic and multi-scale modeling of foams. Furthermore, it deals with including the effect of the pore gas flow in foams, which is important for simulating the behavior of protective foams in car crash analyses.

We are looking for more engineers with solid LS-DYNA experience to join our Gothenburg office!

Date: 2 Feb 2012
Time: 10.00-10.45 (Stockholm Time)

Hot forming processes are gaining increasing interest in the sheet metal forming industry, especially in the automotive industry and its suppliers. The Webex workshop will present the capabilities in LS-DYNA for simulating coupled thermal and mechanical forming processes. It will be presented by David Lorenz who is one of Dynamore’s leading experts in this area.
