Webinar description

B

As one of the most powerful multi-physics finite element analysis package, LS-DYNA has been adopted in many industries to facilitate design, including the civil/structural sector. Having the capability to model sophisticated structural, soil behavior under different types of dynamic and extreme loadings, LS-DYNA simulations have provided unique value to the design and performance evaluation process for projects within the civil/structural industry.

As a leading engineering consulting firm for the civil built environment, Arup has over 20 years of experience and expertise using LS-DYNA in a wide spectrum of applications. Arup has developed many capabilities of LS-DYNA for the civil/structural engineering sector, and the leading pre-and post-processing software: Oasys for LS-DYNA.

This webinar will show how LS-DYNA is used in the civil domain to inform the design of complex buildings. Through project examples, a variety of applications will be shown including how LS-DYNA enables advanced seismic analysis of structures, complex soil-structure interactions and helps to overcome construction challenges.

Speaker – Ben Shao

Ben is a structural analyst in the Advanced Technology and Research (AT+R) group of Arup San Francisco office. He has in-depth knowledge of structural analysis, especially modeling the nonlinear behavior of building structures under seismic loading. He has extensive experience in using LS-DYNA and the Oasys software to analyze a wide range of civil/structural problems. He has also developed and conducted the LS-DYNA training course: Introduction to Performance-based Seismic Analyses.
