Call for Papers for the 16th German LS-DYNA Forum

Stuttgart, March 3rd, 2020

Every two years DYNAmore GmbH invites all users from industry and academia to the German LS-DYNA Forum. This year the event will take place from 7-9 October 2020 in Ulm. The forum is the ideal framework for exchanging knowledge and experience with LS-DYNA and related products.

With the "Call for Papers" DYNAmore invites all users to submit their work with LS-DYNA or LS-OPT and to present it to an international expert audience at the major event on simulation with LS-DYNA in Germany.

The deadline for submissions is 29 May 2020; all that is needed to submit a paper is the title and a brief description of the presentation. These can be easily submitted via the website at
www.dynamore.de/abstract-2020-e. Please note that the forum does not require a paper of several pages, a two-page abstract is sufficient. In addition, DYNAmore will publish the slides on its website after the conference and therefore asks for the presentations to be made available.

The technical presentations are the core of the conference. But first-class keynote presentations by top-class speakers from industry and academia are also again on the agenda. Software developers from LST, an ANSYS Company, will also be represented there and inform about the latest trends and developments in LS-DYNA. The range of topics will be rounded off by the popular workshops on various topics and applications.

In the accompanying exhibition, numerous companies from the hardware and software sectorpresent their range of services. If you are interested in participating in the German LS-DYNA Forum as exhibitor or sponsor, all information is available on the DYNAmore website at www.dynamore.de/exhibition-2020.

As always, accompanying seminars will take place in the days before and after the conference. Experienced trainers provide well-founded and vivid information on the respective topic. An overview with description of the individual seminar contents is available at www.dynamore.de/for-sem-2020-e.
