  • Hello, I am trying to export the results of the observed variables of a design study in a suitable format

    I am conducting a design study and observing 3 variables. Afterwards I would like to export the individual courses of the variables in order to process the data further. I know that I can output the results as numerical data via the postprocessor. The…
  • Conformal Contact Simulation between a rigid and flexible body in ADAMS?

    Hi, How is it possible to model a conformal contact between two body in contact? Flexible/flexible bodies or flexible/rigid bodies.
  • Is it possible to use Ftire durcing suspension analysis in adams car ?

    I want to use Ftire during suspension analysis. Even if we can change Tire Model to Property File, but not "real Ftire", only the vertical stffness effect from ftire property file was considered. So, is there a way to realize "Ftire in suspension…
  • Alternative to INTERP2 for interpolating 3D spline in design-time ?

    Hi, I am trying to interpolate the following 3D spline with INTERP2 function but it gives error "x and y array size must be equal". xs = 1,2,3,4,5 ys = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 zs = 1,2 My objective is to get the…
  • Is it possible to make dynamic friction time-dependent? I need to use a changing dynamic friction coefficient to simulate the behavior of guides that are not lubricated equally.

  • How to compute the frequency in subroutine at each time step during the simulation ?

    Dear All, I am working on subroutine where I have to apply the frequency dependent force during the simulation. I wonder, how can I find the frequency during simulation at each time step. I thought to save the data for…
  • warnning message: rim motion states sent to CTI are inconsistent.

    Hi, I simulate the full vehicle manuever. But I got warnning message: rim motion states sent to CTI are inconsistent. Waht ist possible reason?
  • GSTIFF/WSTIFF don't follow PREFERENCES/SIMFAIL=STOPCF?

    I'm running some Monte Carlo simulations and I set PREFERENCES/SIMFAIL=STOPCF in my solver script to make sure that jobs that run into issues immediately terminate (and my postprocessing will identify them as failures). I've noticed that GSTIFF simulations…
  • How to make a joint frictionless once you have modified the joint friction settings ?

    Hello I'm trying to simulate a crate falling down an inclined plane to understand the basics of MSC Adams View. I added a translational joint between the crate and the inclined plane. If I leave the joint frictional settings unmodified (shown in screenshot…
  • Is there a way to prevent consuming another set of licenses of ADAMS View after losing and regaining connectivity?

    I am running into problems where if, for whatever reason, I lose VPN connectivity, and the regain it, I will now be consuming two sessions of ADAMS View (twice the number of tokens). When I close the session and check the token usage, it still shows I…
  • Is it possible to increase the numerical precision in a req-file?

    As I wrote above, it would be nice to have the same numerical precision in a req file as in the res file. How is this possible? Thank you very much for your help!

  • What is the recommended workflow for importing STL files, converted to rigid body solids, and creating contact between the solids in ADAMS Modeler?

    I can import STL files. I tried importing as faceted body and as mesh. I tried converting the mesh using geometry from mesh. I created a contact force between the two bodies, but when I run the simulation I get the following ERROR: The contact…
  • How can I use Adams/Insight (Ascii) to optimize damper values?

    I couldn't find any example without .adm file for optimization in Adams/Insight Ascii. What I need is to use Adams Car and Adams Insight Ascii to optimize damper (.dpr extension) values.
  • How can I open or import an older ADAMS 2020 bin file in ADAMS Modeler 2023?

  • Stiff spring element works inside adm but stops converging when defined inside dll

    We are trying to use a GForce to model a nonlinear element in an assembly. When we define this spring inside the adm file, the model runs OK and converges quickly. However, when the spring is defined inside a dll created using c-code, the convergence…
  • Setting Spin Velocity on Tractor-Trailer Tires...

    A/View 2022.4 on Windows 10 I have a full tractor-trailer model. On the Tractor Steer Axle, I have single Tires, and all other Axles I have Dual Tires. I’m running a static and then a dynamic analysis. I’m setting an initial velocity…
  • what possibly reason for "camber , Fz exceeds validity range"?

    Hello, I have full vehicle simulation for handling . During some simulation condition i will get message like followings, otherwise others condition not. Could you tell me , what ist prossibly reason for such kind of warrning?

  • New 4K Monitors - Graphics settings?

    Just got some nice new 4K monitors. Things seem to be working well, but ADAMS 2022.4 seems a little fuzzy/blurry. Before I start changing things willy-nilly, any thoughts?
  • Batch File Command to automate the compile process for aADAMS User Subroutine.

    Hello ADAMS Users, I would like to automate the process of compiling my user subroutine, perhaps using a Windows prompt batch file. Currently, the manual process would be to type in the following into the windows command prompt with a…
  • How to constraint 6DOF for a surface in a Flexible body (MNF)?

    I have generated an MNF file in Abaqus and a node of a surface is fixed and the node is MPC beam constraint to the target surface. My FEA results are correct and the surface tied to the node is fixed as expected. Now the MNF file with these…
  • Actuator subsystem attachment in General Actuation Analysis

    Hi, I am doing a General Actuation Analysis and I have a doubt regarding how to attach the actuator subsystems to the ground. I have three options: Use a fixed joint, use only a bushing in the CoG, and use 4 bushing (one per corner and separated…
  • Putting a Multibody Model in Orbit

    I am curious if anyone has experience with trying to put an ADAMS model into orbit (i.e., propagating an orbit with gravitational forces, perturbations etc. while simulating the model of interest). After searching this forum and the help, nothing comes…
  • Is there any way to set a variable for initial conditions of joints that have been applied motion in adams solver script (.acf)?
