Discover how Impetus addresses long-standing challenges in blast and fragmentation modeling, including mesh dependency and mass loss. This case study explains how higher-order elements, node splitting, and stochastic damage modeling enable more reliable prediction of fragment mass, velocity, and distribution without extensive physical test calibration.
