ABAQUS vs LS-DYNA (How LS-DYNA running so faster?)

[scandroglio]

Hello to all forum,
I'm just starting to testing the capabilities of LS-DYNA and make a comparison with ABAQUS.
LS-DYNA have also an implicit solver and I just made a comparison with ABAQUS implicit.
Ther result are the same but the calculation time is 8min for and LS-DYNA and 1h and 40min for ABAQUS implicit, Is there someone that can explane this difference?Is some one that know if LS-DYNA implicit is a "rela implicit code"?

Waiting for an answer I send you my best regards.

The problem you're using for benchmark is not the same ?

Best regards.

Yes, the problem is exactly the same, Can you try to make some benchmark to see if you obtain the same result?
