  • What are additional cards needs to applied for creating flex body with stress and strain mode data using NX Nastran specifically ?

    I am able to generate flexible bodies with NX Nastran however struggling with stress strain modes addition in flex body. I would be great if you can support on this. Thank you.

  • Generation MNF files using Ansys works fine up to Ansys 18.2, but does not work since Ansys 19.0. See also KB8023510. Is there a workaround for fixing this issue? Thanks!

  • How to flex control arm of suspension in ADAMS/View using Viewflex

    I opened the template of my suspension in ADAMAS/CAR and then switch it to Adamsview for creating flex using viewflex. In viewflex dialogue box its asking part to flex When I am selecting the control arm to flex using viewflex its asking to use Boolean…

  • Do we need to create attachment nodes in a .mnf file for connection of payload mass?

    I am working on truck chassis+loadbody mnf in msc adams. Currently payload is attached to loadbody through RBE3 in NASTRAN directly. But as payload in truck changes I need new flex body every time. my question is, can I retain payload connecting…

  • How to fetch or export contact incident data with multiple contact events through python commands?

    (Flexible bodies) I have multiple contact events in a single incident.

  • Is there a way to edit master and slave nodes for a flexible body in ADAMS?

    Hello, I am currently working on a project where I would like to be able to change which node is the master node for my flexible body. Is there a way to do this in ADAMS? Thanks, Jon

  • Hello, Can anyone point me to an up to date example or manual of how to use abaqus command to create .mnf files for ADAMS?

    All of the references I have found so far are out of date. I am referring to the abaqus subroutine for MSC.ADAMS that uses the form above. Currently .mnf files are being created, but they do not output stresses when used in ADAMS.

  • A/Flex Optimization: "Remove Internal Solid Element Geometry"

    Hi all, I am trying to reduce the size of my flex body and am using the A/Flex GUI. ​ I use the "Remove Internal Solid Element Geometry" option which usually works. However, ever so often it produces an .mnf with a significantly lower file…

  • Any known limitation on amount of flexible bodies in a model with multiple fixed connections in between?

    Hello, I would like to know if anyone has already encountered limitations as the complexity of the flexible bodies increase as well as the number of fixed/bushing connections between them. While working in a non conventional project, we…

  • Is there a method to specify an specific folder other than the one in the project database in the Local Hard drive to store Flexible body files?

    Hello, We are looking for a environmental variable or equivalent method to specify a predefined location where to store the flexible body files (.mnf). To give an example, there is the possibility to do a similar procedure to use…

  • Stress recovery from nonlinear FE_PART

    ​Hi All I am running a nonlinear FE_PART model and would like to obtain the stress and strain values along the beam. Essentially I am just looking for the point of maximum stress. I am not sure if there is a post-process step I am missing,…

  • Has anyone had success using a flex body to solid contact?

    My simulations consitently have a large stress concentration at the interface node. Thank you, Jon

  • What kind of floating frame of refernce is MSC.ADAMS

    I am wondering what kind of floating frame of reference (FFR) ADAMS is actually using. In literature, three are common: (1) body attached FFR, (2) Tisserand Frame (= Mean Axis Frame) and (3) Buckens Frame (=Linearized Means Axis Frame). Number…

  • Is it possible to make the contact stiffness b/w flex-flex bodies a function of state variable say instantaneous penetration depth or angular position of some body?

    The stiffness field requires a real value to be entered and I am able to make it a function of time, but is it possible to make it as a function of another state variable?

  • Are there issues with using flexible bodies in Windows 10?

    I am trying to use flexible bodies on my Windows 10 machine, and keep getting errors. The two errors are exception 11 and the other is a message saying remotebootstrap.exe has stopped working. Does anyone know what my issue is?

  • internal loads on a flexbody

    Hello to everybody, I need to calculate the internal loads, on several wing sections, arising during a flexible aircraft model landing simulation. I've used the durability plugin to generate a .mdf file after the landing simulation…

  • Moments and Forces output of Flexible bodies is zero?

    Hi, Everyone. I met a problem of outputting responses of a flexible body. I just use a cantilever beam as a flexible body in ADAMS, and applying a moment load at one side, the 'total force on point' and 'total torque on point' output…

  • Operational Deflection Shapes ODS

    Hey all! I'd like to enhance the investigation of the resonances of a mechanical system model incluing flexibles structures. Is it possible to extract operational deflection shapes from the System after the simulation using the Adams PPT? Or should…

  • How to create a parametric flexible board in a parametric Kickboard assembly
