Overview

Version - 2024.1  

Adams/Car is the industry-standard simulation tool in the automotive industry for kinematic (suspension) and dynamic (ride/handling, durability, NVH, etc) simulation. This class is an overview of Adams/Car that introduces the basics of modeling and simulation of an example FSAE vehicle.

Objectives:
- Learn about user modes and Adams Car data hierarchy 
- Understand the Adams Car database structure 
- Learning the concept of subsystems and assemblies 
- Modification of suspension and full vehicle models 
- Setup of simulations 
- To create and modify templates 
- Use of different property files

Pre-requisites:
None

Topics:
- Basic Adams Car concepts
- Adjusting and simulating full-vehicle assemblies
- Template creation and modification
- Extracting results from simulations
