Hello,
I want to find the load-deflection characteristics of a composite crash tube used in aircraft seats for impact energy absorption. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to model this in ANSYS using a quasi-static analysis without the LS-DYNA solver? I tried to do this in ansys with lsdyna but got an error saying that,

F: \ ansys_lc> del ansdynaz.bat
No batch file.

and the solve command would not intiate.The same problem worked out in ansys wb and lsdyna is shown on pages 16, 17 and 18 of this document,

Thanks,
David
