Phone Drop Test Model (.inp format) (11.2MB)
Introduction
A common application of explicit analysis is the simulation of drop tests for consumer electronics.
This example is of a simplified representation of a Cell Phone in .inp format input demonstrating the capability of the inp2rad script in OpenRadioss Tools
