Adams/Car Baja/Formula (ADM742)

MSC.Adams/Car is the most used multibody dynamics software in the automotive industry. Utilizing MSC.Adams/Car, engineers can build and evaluate several vehicle configurations and optimize its performance. The suspension kinematics and the load distribution can be analyzed under conditions similar to the actual traffic conditions in which the vehicle is used.

If your team intends to use an engineering tool that allows the construction of fully parameterized and modularized vehicle models to be used in the optimization of vehicle performance, please contact us to get more information about this course.
