ADAMS/Car - Control of the Initial Conditions

4ondrej.petergac

Hello,
 
In the ADAMS/Car after the simulation is submitted, then the initial condition simulation, static simulation and dynamic simulation are executed.
 
In my model there is a lot of variables which set during initial condition simulation.
 
I want to control in the ADAMS/Car if the initial conditions are set correctly.
 
Is there any way to control the values of the initial conditions.
 
Thanks
Ondrej

    Hi Ondrej,
    what are these conditions, are these suspension geometry... or driving characteristics?

    Hi Alexis,
     
    thanks for the reply.
     
    I want to investigate wheel angular velocities and initial conditions of the rotating parts in my EDU subsystem which were set during the initial condition analysis and during the quasi static set up manovuer.
     
    Thanks and best regards,
    Ondrej

    Have you tried right button + info? e.g:
    If you want to know the camber adjustment, you can run a paralell travel at zero displacement and when finished check camber adjustable force (as per above), this will tell you how much adjustment is being made and if it is being achieved or not. I recall there is an example of this in A2016 release, check for "Adams 2016 New Features Examples
    " in SimCompanion

    Hi Alexis,
     
    thanks for your reply.
     
    I needed to check the calculated wheel initial angular velocities ind the tire subsystems.
     
    Best regards,
    Ondrej
