Introduction
Adams Car API is a Python-based interface to make it easy to use Adams Car in batch (non-graphical) mode. This is an alternate scripting method to the traditional Adams View command language. The Adams Car Python Interface is a Python API (Application Programming Interface) that enables you to open a vehicle assembly, run analyses and postprocess output in batch mode. It allows you to do modification of modelling objects for multi-run studies (Design of Experiments, optimization, etc).
You can use the Python interface in following ways:
■Import a Python script in Adams Car session.
■Execute a set of Python commands using the Adams command window.
■Run Python scripts in batch mode by specifying the Python script name in the Adams command prompt.
■Additionally, the Adams command line (
View → Command Window) supports scripting in Python, see more information
