Dytran is an explicit finite element analysis (FEA) solution for analyzing complex nonlinear behavior involving permanent deformation of material properties or the interaction of fluids and structures. Dytran enables you to study the structural integrity of designs to ensure that final products stand a better chance of meeting customer safety, reliability, and regulatory requirements.
Only a multi-discipline solution offers the most accurate results. Dytran combines structural, material flow, and fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis in a single package. Dytran uses a combination of Lagrangian and Eularian solver technology to analyze short-duration transient events that require finer time step to ensure a more accurate solution. You can apply Dytran to problems that have a high degree of material nonlinearity (foam, rubber, and large deformations in metal), large geometry nonlinearity (buckling, crippling, and cracking), and extreme boundary nonlinearity (a structure folding over onto itself.)
