Hello All,

I am simulating an explosion inside a square cross-section metal tube using quarter symmetry. I used a SALE mesh to simulate the air. I did a 1D to 3D mapping to map the explosion to a sphere in the tube. I have included the input file. I can send the plate mesh and mapfile if required. The plate deforms in an unrealistic way on the symmetry boundary and in the centre of quarter symmetry.
