Suspension Analysis: Frame Compliance
(Standard Interface) Simulate → Suspension Analysis → Frame Compliance
The frame compliance event is a half-vehicle event that calculates the displacement/rotation of the wheel centers during body attachment displacement. Different options from the dialog box are described below:
For the option: | Do the following: |
|---|---|
Suspension Assembly | Select the Suspension Assembly you want to analyze. The menu lists all suspension assemblies currently open in your session. Note: This event is not supported for testrig __MDI_TASA_TESTRIG. |
Assembly Variant | Select the assembly variant you want to analyze. The menu lists all suspension assembly variants of the chosen assembly. |
 | Switches to the selected variant and adds the required testrig as needed. |
Output Prefix | Enter a string that specifies the Analysis Output Name. The string can contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores (_). Adams Car appends the suffix _fco to form the complete analysis name. For example, if you enter test_45 as the output prefix, the analysis name becomes test_45_fco. |
Solver Settings File | Select one or more files (extension .ssf) defining the solver settings to be temporarily applied for this simulation (optional). Note: Solver settings files are applied in the order specified, so if multiple .ssf files contain the same solver settings, the last file in the list determines those settings. |
 | Opens the Solver Settings File (extension .ssf) editor dialog box. |
Mode of Simulation | Select interactive, background, graphical, files or event only. |
Create Event Log File | Select if you want Adams Car to write information about the assembled model and analysis to an Analysis Log File. |
 | Select to display a dialog box where you can add multi-line comments to any entity, to describe its purpose and function. Adams Car displays different comments dialog boxes, depending on the entity type for which you want to record comments: ■If recording comments for modeling entities in Standard Interface, Adams Car displays the Entity Comments dialog box. ■If recording comments for any other entity type, Adams Car displays the Modify Comment dialog box. Learn about Recording Comments. |
 | Select to display an Alignment dialog box where you can set toe, camber and caster alignment values. |
