MADM Correlation Tool

MADM Correlation Tool

Included in T/HIS as a JavaScript is the MADM Correlation Tool. The minimum area discrepancy method (MADM) is ideal for correlation between Ansys LS-DYNA simulations and physical tests when force versus deflection is the relationship of interest, and offers benefits over other correlation methods that focus on parameters versus time. To run the tool, open the JavaScript panel, and select MADM → MADM Correlation Tool. For more details, see Appendix F – MADM Correlation tool.
