Slide 7
In-Plane Integration Points
T/HIS now supports multiple in-plane integration points
for Shells and Thick Shells.
If a model has been defined with data from multiple inplane integration points written to either the THF (d3thdt)
or LSDA (binout) file the Surface selection menu will also
allow the user to select which in-plane point(s) to read
data for.
Note : For some versions
of LS-DYNA, the data is
output correctly to the THF
(d3thdt) file only for the 1st
in-plane integration point;
therefore the default in
T/HIS is to plot only the 1st
in-plane integration point .

DIADEM Data
By default T/HIS will display the channel
comments for each channel. This can be
changed to the channel names using the popup
menu if required.
When channels are read, this option is also used
to create the labels for each curve.
The list of channels can also be filtered if
required. Filtering is not case-sensitive.
Back to Contents
Slide 11
DIADEM Data
Normally one of the DIAdem data channels
contains the x-axis (time) values. By default
T/HIS assumes this is channel 1 but this can be
changed using the button labelled ...
if required.
If none of the channels contain the x-axis values
then a start value and an increment can be
specified to generate curves with evenly spaced
x-axis values.

Back to Contents
Slide 13
NASTRAN PCH Files
By default, T/HIS will create a curve for every data
component in the PCH file. Example: nodal
displacements from a SORT2-format file will produce
12 curves per node.
X,Y,Z translation (Real) / (Magnitude)
X,Y,Z translation (Imaginary) / (Phase angle)
X,Y,Z rotational (Real) / (Magnitude)
X,Y,Z rotational (Imaginary) / (Phase angle)
The Options... button can be used to deselect
unwanted data components before reading the file.

components will also be
stored with the curves to
allow the curves to be
sorted using the curve
table, and displayed using
Auto-blank (tab key).

Two new function dB and dB(A) are available to convert a
curve to dB and to apply “A” weighting factors
dB
f(x)= 20 x log (y/yref)
The dB(A) function applies a
weighting factor to all of the points
in a curve that is already in dB.
The factor can either use
Back to Contents
•
“Narrow band” A weighting
•
1/3rd Octave A weighting
Slide 27
Curve Operations
The Octave function converts a curve from the narrow band
to either Octave bands or 1/3rd Octave bands.
The output can be generated using either RMS values or mean
values.

c_new = Operate.Add(c_old,c_old2)
…or numerical values
val = Operate.Tms(c_old,0.003)
val = Operate.Hic(c_old,0.036,9810)
Apply C180 filter to curve c_old after
regularising with dt=0.0001
Add curves c_old and c_old2 together and
output as curve c_new
Calculate 3ms clip value for curve c_old
using a period of 0.003 seconds.
Calculate Hic value for curve c_old using a
0.036s window and a factor of 9810 to
convert curve to G
