Description:

RF-DYNA is a software developed by SAR research group to assign random fields and variables to nonlinear finite element models developed using LS-DYNA. Following are the software features:

  • User-friendly visual interface
  • Random fields/variables can be assigned to a variety of material models
  • Works with complex geometries and finite element mesh

RF-DYNA is primarily useful for performing random (stochastic) nonlinear finite element (RNFE) reliability-based analysis. The software can generate ±·Ìýnumber of RNFE models simultaneously. The software has been tested/used for a variety of structural applications and leased to industry partners.
