Adams

When designing a mechanical system such as an automotive suspension or an aircraft landing gear, you need to understand how various components (pneumatics, hydraulics, electronics, and so on) interact as well as what forces (noise, vibration, and harshness) those components generate during operation. Adams is a motion simulation solution for analyzing the complex behavior of mechanical assemblies. Adams allows you test virtual prototypes and optimize designs for performance, safety, and comfort, without having to build and test numerous physical prototypes.

Starting with basics

Tailoring Adams to your specific needs and industry

Benefits:

• Work in a secure virtual environment, without the fear of losing critical data due to instrument failure or of falling behind schedule due to poor weather conditions, common elements that accompany real-world testing.
• Reduce risk by getting better design information at every stage of the development process.
• Analyze design changes much faster and at a lower cost than physical prototype testing requires.
• Improve product quality by exploring numerous design variations in order to optimize full-system performance.
• Vary the kinds of analyses being performed without having to modify physical instrumentation, test fixtures, and test procedures.
