Exporting Data for ANSYS
Using Adams Durability, you can generate displacement mode shapes (in ASCII or binary format) that you can use to recreate mode substep results within ANSYS (when you need an ANSYS modal superposition, but don’t have the results file).
You can also directly apply the displacement time histories on the modal nodes (rather than use modal superposition) when you need finite-element (FE) stress recovery for an analysis with few time steps. You can generate an input file for the subsequent ANSYS analyses that consist of time domain impositions of flexible body node displacements.
To export data for ANSYS:
1. From the Durability menu, point to FE Modal Export, and then select ANSYS.
3. Select OK.
