Settings Solver Output More Output Category Output (.out) Content
Selecting Output (Out) Content as the Output Category in the Solver Settings dialog box lets you set the format of the tabular output file. You only receive a tabular output file when you are using External Adams Solver. Learn about setting type of Adams Solver.
 
For the option:
Do the following:
Jacobian Matrix
Prints the Jacobian matrix at each iteration. Learn about setting Jacobian matrix.
Request Data
Prints the requests output at each iteration.
RHS and States
Prints the YY array (state vector), RHS array (error terms), and DELTA array (increment to state vector) at each iteration.
Degrees of Freedom
Prints a degree-of-freedom table in the tabular output file. The table indicates whether or not each of the six components of motion (that is, translation along the x- , y- , and z-axis and rotation about the x- , y- , and z-axis) is constrained for each part center of mass relative to the origin of the ground reference frame. These are the degrees of freedom as input.
To determine the degrees of freedom for the degree-of-freedom table, Adams Solver factorizes the constraint matrix. Adams Solver then checks for columns that are linear combinations of the other columns of the matrix. The components of motion corresponding to these columns are not constrained. After the matrix has been factored, Adams Solver selects the components corresponding to the zero pivot elements as the degrees of freedom. Adams Solver reports these as the independent coordinates in the degree-of-freedom table.
Equation Map
Writes the internal representation of a model in the tabular output file after Adams Solver reads and checks the input. It maps the equations and variables in the system and provides their numeric codes.
