ratio.................................. 24 iv Since 2002, the Bureau of Reclamation has used the explicit code DYNA3D, sometimes in conjunction with the implicit code NIKE3D, to evaluate complex three-dimensional finite element models of various dams and buildings. While in some cases the DYNA3D code worked effectively and produced quality results, it was found that in the more complex models where there are tens of thousands of elements and several complex contact surfaces, the model took days to run and its behavior/results were questionable. This led to the consideration of LS-DYNA, both an implicit and explicit code that uses the same basic theory of DYNA3D but is optimized for performance, has improved contact surface interaction, has more hourglass control options, is commercially available, has readily available technical support, and has far superior postprocessing and error checking. This report summarizes the basic results comparing program performance and stability between DYNA3D and LS-DYNA as well as the validation and benchmark testing
