I've got a model with rotating joints that hit hardstops at 90deg rotation and then rebound. This happens multiple times in the sim. For speed I'd like to run with a coarse output timestep up until the rotation angle reaches 89deg, then switch to a fine…
Hi,
I am trying to run Adams MaxFlex on an HPC. I run to a memory error with the following message:
Severity is 'USER FATAL MESSAGE' (1)
%1: 'because BUFFPOOL size exceeds MEMORY.'
%2: 'MEMORY= 20971520 words, BUFFPOOL…
Hi,
Is there a way to create a request for the contact force between bodies, or any other way to print to a file them automatically through a simulation?
Thanks in Adavance,
Josef
If private configuration file acar.cfg (where all the working database are mentioned) is deleted, how to retrieve that file. Is there any way where we can get the information for databases which I was working on earlier ?
The default Adams CRATIO for a flexbody is the following:
1% damping for all modes with frequency lower than 100.
10% damping for modes with frequency in the 100 to 1000 range.
100% critical damping for modes with frequency above 1000.

We have a solenoid force input data with respect current and stroke. That is, solenoid force is dependent on input current and the stroke….We have current vs time data also.
Idea is to create a single point force.
But the challenge is that we…
Can we model a contact force between two body out that one body has zero mass?
We have already considered the mass of that body in other simulation and already we have the force curve based on that…Hence we are planning to model it as zero mass in…
Hi,
As per below code, I have created variables (body_1, body_2) using other variable's string values (body). Now I want to access "body_1" in my code but I suspect it is possible to access it.

Maybe a very obvious question but I have not found an optimal solution yet.
What I want to obtain is an 'Easy' approach to create identical plot pages from several runs without losing data halfway or overwriting plots already made from previous…
Hello,
I'm creating a flexible suspension subsystem from a rigid subsystem. It involves replacing the control arms and the subframe with MNF files which has been carried out successfully. Next step is to adjust the subsystem to tune the wheelbase…
Hello!
I am running a rather complex Adams model in co-simulation with Matlab Simulink with high output sample frequency of min 4 kHz over a couple of seconds. Thus the results file is getting pretty big and maybe even slowing down my Analysis…
I recall there used to be an MSC employee that maintained a database with generalised CAD data for mechanical objects. Is this still maintained ?
Or does anyone has any advise where to find such a (not to detailed) CAD file of a Seahawk Helicopter…
I need to import a particular road created in CAD and I would like to analyze also the behaviou r of the road with the tyres.
Is it possible?
Is there any possibility to do it?
I need to include a Racing Track Kerb into a 3D flat road or another 3D road that has part of it flat. If you have a script/tool to do it and you can share it, let me know. Any ideas on how to do it are welcome
Thanks
Juan
Hello!
I am just trying to add a flexible body with a force element between two of its interface nodes to reinforce the structure.
I can't share the model, but I think what gives a good picture of the idea is a flexible model of…
In traditional 'forum' tools the owners decide upon categories and then users post into the appropriate category. That's nice and it works. This forum tool has a different approach, like so: create few categories initially and let users define new tags…
Hi
In Dyno operations, they used to say Speed mode and Torque mode. Speed mode - controls the speed and I used PID to model this. I am confused on how to model torque mode.
Do we need a complex feedback loop for the Torque mode ? Can't we…
Renaming ADAMS/Insight (factor & response) is tedious.
As shown in the figure above, I have to rename the (abbreviation : r_06) to (mode16_imaginary).
Imagine that repeating this process for hundreds of (factors & responses). Its…
I am an Adam user with limited FEA background. I would like to know how I can properly create an MNF file using Nastran to represent linear flexibility in Adams.
Could I have a template with explanation on the important command lines in the Nastran…
Is it possible to perform Modal Stress Recovery in Adams? If so, is it possible to easily find the hot spots of the flexible body and to plot the time history of nodal stresses?
I appreciate that MSC tried to anticipate what people like Martin might want. But why spring this on us unannounced, when MSC knows that there's existing Forum members (from Adams and other MSC products) that are quite passionate and wouldn't mind helping…
I understand that perhaps the choice of new database system precludes a search from returning answers from the vault.
But what I forsee is once we get content built up here in the new Community, people will search for a topic, and not see any…
So I wanted to respond to an ongoing Adams 2017.2 Beta issue, and clicked on the email link. Taking me to the "new and improved" and "highly interactive" Community page here.
And I'm not quite sure if old discussion threads have been closed…
