Ansys LS-DYNA with CSV Config File

Ansys LS-DYNA models without associated Automotive Assessment Workflow Data (AAWD) can still be used with SimVT, but a CSV Config File is required to assign channel labels to the entities in the model. Note that it is recommended to use AAWD but the CSV Config File Format is provided for scenarios which AAWD does not support e.g. custom channel names.

CSV Config File Format

• An example CSV configuration file format showing a mixture of the supported inputs is shown below.
• The header row is required, but the order of the columns can vary.
• The configuration file supports ISO-MME format channel codes.
• If you are not working with ISO-MME data, you can provide any name you like in the channel column.

Assigning CSV Config File

When "Assign config" is clicked on the Correlation Setup window, the CSV Configuration window will appear. Follow these steps to assign a CSV config file.
