MSC Adams Advanced
Objective:
The course covers 2 peculiar aspects of multibody simulations: optimization and flexibility. With regard to optimization, the concepts of Design Variable, parametric analysis (Design Study, DOE, Optimization) and advanced analysis tools (Adams/Insight). We will deepen the use of the Function Builder for the creation of Objectives and Optimization Constraints, and advanced modeling concepts will be introduced (sensor, differential equation, macros). Regarding flexibility, the course introduces the dynamics of multibody systems with flexible bodies, modal analysis, i modal condensation methods, MNF file creation, Flexible Body management, analysis and postprocessing, for calculation of deformations and stress (Adams/Durability)
