  • large flexible body

    Hello, I want to model a system which includes a large body that I want to model as flexible. Are there any efficient ways of doing this? I am asking because I also want to define contacts including said body, making the computations quite…

  • How can I find the total computational time required for completion of a dynamical simulation?

    Thank you in advance for your help.

  • Is it possible to reduce the control speed of a space mouse (3D connexion)?

    Hello everyone, I would like to use a Space Mouse ( 3D connexion), but the speed to move and rotate my model is too fast. I tried changing the settings in the app of the space mouse, but it doesn't reduce the speed in adams view. It only reduces…

  • Model tree issue in ADAMS/View 2023.4

    ADAMS/View 2023.4 Windows 10 Anybody else seeing this behavior in the model tree? Under "Bodies" I get a list of the children of the bodies, but no bodies themselves... If I exit and reopen all is well (for a while).

  • Hi, Any directions on how to model a shrink-fit contact model between a 3D flexible bushing and a 3D rigid shaft? Simply changing the bushing dimension to have a different classification fit does not simulate a shrink-fit contact model.

  • Can you activate a velocity motion mid-analysis without resetting the position of the assembly?

    Hi All, I'm a bit stuck. I'm trying to setup a simulation where in the first phase, the assembly settles to a position under the summation of external forces (its velocity settles to zero with a certain displacement). …

  • How to have 2D-plot stress distribution along an edge in a flexible body?

    I would like to plot the stress distribution for the hole in the flexible body. Right now I can see the contours but I am interested in plotting the stress for the hole's edge and seeing how the load is distributed instead of visually seeing that. …

  • Using Impose Motion with IC together with flex body

    Hello, What can be problem with using model with flexbody and motion together with IC? I am trying to use motion in bottom rev joint. Without displacement IC in motion model runs fine, same for rigid. But…

  • What is the cause of the difference between Adams Insight result based on an Adams Car full-vehicle model and Adams Car manual simulation result? (Only Four-Poster Results)

    I have been working on damper optimization analyses. I have prepared varying damper files to combine in Adams Insight. I have tried many different test-rig. Knowing how objectives and their equal value in the postprocessor differ in a four-poster analysis…

  • Static equilibrium

    Hello Adams Community, I am using Adams MaxFlex to run a nonlinear simulation. I am generating the bulk data file in my code and importing the resulting `BDF` file into my model. My model runs perfectly fine when I use…

  • Design Study doesn't update the design variable.

    Hi everyone, I have a simulation in which the system is driven by a torque and then a contact case is simulated. The torque is controlled with a PID controller. The torque is also monitored by a sensor. The sensor interrupts the simulation if a certain…

  • Error for vibration analysis

    I am getting the following error for my vibration analysis Ant lead? ERROR: The state matrix and eigen vector matrix are not of compatible sizes. A: 2 x 2 B: 0 x 0 C: 0 x 0 D: 0 x 0 ERROR: The state…

  • How can a system be stopped as soon as the torque on the actuator has reached a certain value during a contact?

    Hello everyone, I am simulating a machine tool in Adams View where I want to investigate the force with which the workpiece and the tool touch each other. To do this, I drive my system with a torque that acts on a simplified ball screw. The torque…

  • Is it possible or practically to add a Gear in Gear At on a Shaft where the Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD) is already modelled ?

    My Shaft is a flexible body where the PCD is alredy modelled. Can I add a gear on that modelled PCD ? Do i have to consider anything special if that described procedure works ?

  • Adams View import a lot of XYZ points from Excel or CSV (Macro?)

    In Adams View I'd like to import a ton of XYZ points from my CATIA CAD files. For some reason I can't get them to show up in ADAMs no matter what file I export. I can generate an excel file from CAD, and now I'd like to import them all at once using a…

  • Damper Modeling

    I am trying to extend our damper modeling approach from standard force-velocity curves. Any good references on how to do it or lessons learnt from the existing options inside ADAMS/Car and Ride? Specially looking to improve correlation of activities for…

  • NaN integration error

    Hello, since a while I have the error : "A Not-a-Number (NaN) value was computed for the integration error. This problem may be related to wrong values computed by user-written subroutines. Please try using the Adams utility subroutine…

  • How to resolve LINK2019: unresolved external symbol error when compiling an Adams subroutine?

    I am getting an error of LINK2019 while compiling my subroutine which consists of c_sysfnc, c_errmes and c_step functions. I have already included the "slv_c_utils.h" header file. Do I need to include any other header files and in such case which one…

  • "request activity" for damper and bumstop doesent match?

    Hello , funtion "request activity" can get request wrt-I and wrt-J. But for damper and bumpstop, the I marker and J marker are the same, which doesnt match what we want. Ohterweise, for bushing, spring, rebound are logical in the mind. So , is my…

  • ADAMS/View CPU Time Increase When Using A Sensor To End The Simulation
