The Endurica EIE workflow gives you the ability to simulate road loads and other lengthy histories, supporting as many as 6 independent input channels. The key to success with this workflow is in building the nonlinear map that relates input global loads/displacement to local modeled stresses and strains. This Endurica Academy session presents the best practices for building the map, including:

• Reducing the number of independent channels in the map
• Planning the solution path(s) for the map
• Managing channels with specified rotations
• Considerations when using implicit and explicit finite element solution methods
• Checking map discretization and solution quality
