Explicit Dynamics Theory - Course Overview

We are able to comprehend the physics of brief-duration events thanks to explicit dynamics. Events that take place in milliseconds or even less time, such as a ball hitting a bat, a phone falling to the ground, or a vehicle crash can be simulated using explicit dynamics. We discuss the theory underlying explicit dynamics simulations in this course. We start out by understanding the distinctions between the implicit and explicit methods and when to utilize each one. Since explicit dynamics simulations do not check for force convergence, we learn how to check the energy balance of the system and ensure that the solution is reasonably accurate. Next, we talk about undesirable behaviors like volumetric locking, shear locking, and hour-glass behavior, and ways to remedy them. And finally, we learn how to adjust the model parameters to get an optimum time step size, which enables us to obtain accurate solutions in an efficient manner.
