    Special General Motion in ADAMS

    It might be worth checking "Settings - Units". Maybe degrees are indicated instead of radians? And the entry “varval (41)....” It's also confusing. The number itself cannot be a variable.

    ISO/TS 13725:critical buckling load question.

    Some formulas can be found in the attached links. Perhaps they are suitable for your comparisons. https://www.tesisenred.net/bitstream/handle/10803/6739/05EAsm05de13.pdf https://www.redalyc.org/pdf/849/84911948008.pdf Also may try your luck here...

    Constant torque in pendulum

    I will try to speculate on a simpler example. Let's say there is no gravity or other forces. A conditional vacuum or outer space. If you hypothetically need to push an asteroid, then it is enough to apply force once, and then in accordance with Newton's second law: "in inertial reference frames...

    MSC ADAMS: torsion spring and spline

    "But what mean T=f(defo)? " This entry means that the dependence of the deformation and the moment will be determined by some spline. In the case of a torsion spring, this is the angular displacement. Therefore, in the spline graph, set: X - angle of rotation(there will be units from the...

    A measure for x-y trajectory in ADAMS/View

    I also know of only one way to create a measure - from time (run-time function). You have correctly noted that it is possible to establish dependence on another value in the postprocessor. To display multiple optimization results, try something like this: -Create 2 measures for convenience...

    Problems using Adams Car

    Hmmm. This usually only happens if you have switched from "Template Builder" but are trying to switch back to "Standard Interface" mode. And vice versa.

    Adams Plant Export Error

    "MyThesis_CAR.fsae_front_susp" is the name of the model. To export, you need to enter the name of the variables. Maybe the system should load the variables itself, but apparently there are no variables in this model. Check all available variables by clicking in the right window of the RMB, then...

    how to unlock template builder in Adams car

    It's strange ... This file should be automatically created / updated every time you open the Adams Car. Did your OS explorer search return no results either? Maybe the file is somewhere in the installation directory?

    what format does msc adamas use to read splines?

    I don't know how important it is to calculate spline values during simulation. Why not import the data ahead of time using File - Import - Test data and then use the CUBSPL function to change the force according to that spline?

    How to do a reccurent substitution in a symbolic matrix in matlab withor the ''FOR'' loop?

    Avoid using only "FOR" or any other loops at all? You can organize, for example, through "WHILE" ... clc clear z=0 while z<10 z=z+1 k = [ z+1, z^2; exp(z), z^3] kk(z,1)={k}; end

    Adams Insight factor

    Since for bushings and springs in Adams Car, the characteristic is set only through the properties file, then try to build and refer to the "y = x" graph. And then change Scale Factors to Adams Insight. Their value, in theory, will be equal to the stiffness

    MSC Adams Assembly Advice/Question

    There is, of course, a very, very, very inconvenient option. Create one bin-file, and in it several models (by opening the F3 window and writing, for example, model create model = Model_front, etc.). In each of them import the left/right piece or completely the geometry, place the connections...

    Is it necessary to define the contact between the tire and road?

    Strange, usually if there are "through" movements, it is only if the tire is 3D, but the road is not-3D. Or vice versa. This also happens if the tire mass is incorrectly set (for example, too large). Units (meters and millimeters) seem to be rebuilding itself automatically ... In general, you...
