hi
do you have any refernce to your work ?
do you have any formal /guided training in LSDYNA in general ? and specific to paticel methods? , if not i suggest you first get the training started.
how can you run 16 cores dispite the licenses you hold?
JH and JH-2 will run in lsdyna wb if executed properly !
SECTION and PART snippet will not be taken under the GEOMETRY, you need to use the opton in the LSDYNA -PRE tab.
cheers, Ram
