1. Software Introduction
Adams is a finite element analysis software developed by Mechanical Dynamics Inc (MDI), which is mainly used to simulate the motion and dynamic behavior of mechanical systems. It is widely used in many fields such as automobile, aerospace, machinery, electronics, etc. The following is a detailed introduction to the Adams software.
1. History and evolution of Adams
Adams originated in 1971 and was originally a software tool developed by NASA. In 1981, MDI Corporation took over development and maintenance of Adams from NASA. Since then, Adams has started a rapid development and popularization. At present, Adams has become one of the most popular mechanical system simulation software in the world.
Two, the main characteristics of Adams
- Rich model library: Adams has a rich built-in model library, including various common mechanical components, such as connecting rods, gears, bearings, springs, dampers, etc. In addition, users can also customize the components in the model library to meet specific analysis needs.
- Accurate physical model: Adams uses an accurate physical model, which can simulate various complex mechanical system behaviors, such as rigid body motion, elastic deformation, fluid dynamics, heat conduction, etc.
- High-quality finite element analysis: Adams is based on high-quality finite element analysis methods, which can accurately solve physical quantities such as displacement, stress, and strain of mechanical systems. In addition, it also supports a variety of grid division methods, and you can choose different grid precision and calculation speed according to your needs.
- Visual post-processing: Adams provides a visual post-processing function, and users can easily view and analyze simulation results, including displacement cloud diagrams, velocity curves, and moment curves.
- User-defined functions: Adams supports user-defined functions, and users can write programs to extend the functions of Adams according to their own needs. For example, users can implement specific motion control algorithms, optimization algorithms, etc. by writing programs.
- Support multiple file formats: Adams supports multiple file formats, including INP, odb, txt, csv, etc., which is convenient for users to exchange and share data.
3. The main application fields of Adams
- Automotive engineering: use Adams to analyze the ride comfort, NVH, and handling stability of automobiles.
- Aerospace Engineering: Use Adams for dynamic analysis of aerospace vehicles, landing gear analysis, aeroelastic analysis, etc.
- Mechanical Engineering: Use Adams for dynamic analysis, optimal design, reliability analysis, etc. of mechanical equipment.
- Electronic Engineering: Use Adams for dynamic analysis, vibration control, etc. of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS).
- Biomedical Engineering: Use Adams for mechanical performance analysis of artificial joints, human body dynamics analysis, etc.
