What is the best way to model a flexible part where the part is not attached to any other rigid part; only contacts take place to keep the part in place. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hello,
I am running multiple Adams models on parallel threads while using SMP at the same time. In my case that would be 8 Adams solvers running on parallel, each solving an Adams model with PREFERENCES/NTHREADS = 4.
However, I noticed…
Hello,
I want to import a flexible custom chassis in Adams Car. So far I have created all my vehicle's subsystems and added a part which will later on be converted to flexible. Should I define any points/conenctions before importing my MNF…
I am performing scripted simulation prior to Vibration analysis to achieve specific operating point.
Since scripted simulation takes significant amount of time, I would like to reuse existing simulated position for performing further multiple vibration…
Hello,
I am simulating a composite material truss in Adams. For some reason, while the deformations are very small the strains are huge in the post processor (e.g. the max deformation at one of the truss' s rods is <0.1 mm but the strains are…
Hello,
I know that Adams can calculate stresses and strains for flexible bodies, but I don't know what the available stress values are. For example I can plot the Von Mises stresses or the Normal to the axes. But these are the stresses common…
I just installed 2021.4. Has anybody else done so and noticed some odd behavior with the info window? Forever, if you did an info on an object you could then click on a child of that object and it would populate the field and you could info it. Now it…
Interactive simulation of Adams is very slow. It takes about 2 minutes to simulate as shown in the picture.
Also, it uses only 10% of CPU and 2% of GPU.
Is it possible to use more memory, CPU and GPU for faster simulation?I would like…
When I am setting up an experiment in Adams Insight I am using the "Reuse" experiment tab and loading a previously written experiment. However, in the Work Space the matrix is written as all 1s fir the factors/trials.
In my experiment file…
Bin file got currupted. How to Retrieve ???

Hello,
I was wondering if there was a way to force an infinite analysis duration within Adams Car. My intent is to perform a simple analysis, such as straight-line maintain on flat, 2d road, but tell the solver to run until told to stop, so that…
I have a model built in Adams Modeler like the picture below. I fixed nodes in the left end of the shaft with a box, and the box is fixed with the ground. Then i apply a moment in the right and of the shaft. After that, i run dynamic simulation .Which…
Hello,
when the input inertia off diagonal terms (IXY, IZX and IYZ) from Catia in ADAMS/Car as part characteristics (General Part -> Modify and activate the “Off-Diagonal Terms) , then you have to multiply the Catia inertia off diagonal terms…
Hello,
I was wondering, is there an existing method currently available or under construction within ADAMS/CAR that allows the user to integrate mapped terrain data as a road or similar? I am working to merge gaps within a vehicle autonomy project…
Hi All,
I have an ADAMS model and am extracting the bushing forces as a function of time. I'm being asked if these forces can be represented in the complex form.
As far as I can tell a force only has a real component and not an…
When trying to build a user written subroutine using CNFSUB for example, I faced two issues:
1) the errmess and impact functions could not be found
2) While Adams was linked with my dll, creating a custom solver, the path to certain libraries…
What are the dynamical consequences of creating a marker on a flex body (.mnf) with preserve_location (away from native nodes) ? How are forces/torques at the marker implemented on the body ?
The only thing I can think of is using the acceleration * mass of the object for the forces and for the torques to use Torque = angular acceleration * I where ‘I’ comes from angular momentum = I * angular velocity, and since Adams gives out angular accel…
