Adams Durability

Adams Durability, part of the Adams® 2024.1 suite of software, extends the traditional test-based durability design process into the virtual world. With Adams Durability, you can simulate a durability duty cycle and write out component load histories in or formats and drive a durability test rig using output data in RPC III or DAC formats. You can visualize stress or detect hot spots in flexible bodies, and you can improve component design by interfacing with fatigue life prediction programs.

Some of the features of Adams Durability are available as a demand-loaded library (DLL), while the rest are available as a plugin to the various Adams interface or vertical products, such as Adams View, Adams PostProcessor, and Adams Car.
