Zhengwei Fan

abaqus and ls-dyna

Jonathan Schulte

Commercial software: abaqus, ls-dyna or ansys

We had a similar project; We used the phase field method for the impact fracture. But we have used our own in-house matlab-code (with contact algorithms, IGA,...)

Shahab Khakpour

I have tried ANSYS, ABAQUS and Ls-DYNA, and in my opinion, Ls-DYNA is the best among them.
