Hello - I am using the mnfres function in the flextk toolkit to pull the nodal displacements, velocities, and accelerations for a MNF after a simulation. So far, I've been able to get some good data from it but my team and I curious to know if we can…
As the title says, I'm automating exporting numeric data, but if files already exist I get pop-ups asking if I want to make back-ups. Is there a way to default to yes or no? Thank you!

Dear all,
I'm running a co-simulation with mechancial system representation in Adams and a control system in simulink. The interface is established via co-simulation (controls plugin): injection of electrical torque into ADAMS model, feedback of position…
I am trying to execute below python command block with gui dialogue box, but is is not working.
It works when I run through python file by just normal file import.

Hi, I am Adrián Ros Garcia, a vehicle dynamics engineer from Applus+ IDIADA.
We are currently modeling a rear twist-beam suspension, and we are thinking about implementing a Toe Correcting Bushing in the trailing arm of the twist-beam to avoid rear…
Hello all,
I ran a simulation in adams/view that has contacts. I am using HHT integrator with error tolerance of 1.0E-05 and Hmax=1.0E-05. I put a step size of 0.0001. When I export a result spreadsheet, the time step is not consistent. I would like…
I have text file which contains name of the parts and path to respective part child geometries.
Is it possible to create parts and import geometries under respective parts by text file input.
Hi all,
I need to have a perspective on something i am currently working on: I am trying lock-to-lock steering test on 2-post assembly in adams car with suspension testrig.
Input is 0 to 640 deg at steering wheel.

I want to define two events (two expressions) to trigger a sensor.
Sensor should trigger when event_1 and event_2 both attain the values.
e.g. when AX(mar_1,mar_2) = value 1 and when AX(mar_3,mar_4) = value 2 then sensor would trigger.
Is this possible…
I am creating script for creating request using markers of the joint

Hello,
I fail to understand how the contact normal force is caluclated in solid to solid contacts. I understand that based on geometry and tolerances, multiple contact incidents may occur for a single contact, resulting in the impact function…
Hello,
I am working with the Vibration plugin and I am struggling to access and export the results of my analyses via Python code.
I am not working in batch modus.
What I currently do is that I plot my results in the post processor…
Hello,
I'm exploring ways to optimize simulation time. In my current setup, I’m noticing that the solver’s adaptive step-size control can add to the computational overhead, especially when making minor changes to a model and re-running the…
I have a 3 column by N row matrix that is created by tracing a marker with respect to ground. I need to delete a row from this matrix with a python script. It would be nice to be able to do this to any row, but my immediate need is to remove the first…
In order to extract the time domain of gear contact stiffness, I model gear pair with Machinery Gear/Gear AT, but I haven't found the corresponding channels through post-processing. The unit of similar ones such as ST_Stiff are Newton. Is there a way…
Hello,
I am looking for a way to calculate the moments of inertia of a part at a specific reference marker with Pyton code.
I would like to avoid the trick of calling a cmd line within my Python code.

Hi all,
I am using the gear AT plugin to simulate a transmission.
The model is running without issues and the results are correct (rotational speeds, bearing forces, etc.).
The contact pattern, however, shows a lot of peaks (see picture…
I have the following function. There is a part with several markers all containing 'f' in the marker name. I need to loop through the markers and create a velocity measure on each one~Vx in this case. I get an error saying that the object has no such…
I've got a fairly complex cable system that I've set up in the Cable Wizard and saved as a .wzd file. Sometimes my model configuration will change drastically as a design evolves so I prefer to build everything from modular CMD files as opposed to interactively…
