May 2025 monthly summary focusing on the LS-DYNA beam results example script in ansys/pydpf-core. The work established a practical end-to-end demonstration for extracting, visualizing, and analyzing beam result types (axial force and stresses) across time steps, with a focus on identifying elements with maximum stress values and plotting their evolution over time. This enables faster validation workflows and more actionable insights from LS-DYNA data within the DPF framework.
