What You’ll Create and Simulate

In this tutorial, you’ll create a model of a cantilever link shown below. The cantilever link is made up of a flexible link, which you integrate into Adams View using an MNF and a rigid body sphere. You fix one end of the link to the sphere and the other end of the link to ground. You’ll use a fixed joint to make the attachments. A fixed joint locks two parts together so that they cannot move with respect to each other. You’ll then simulate the model to see the cantilever link oscillate from the force of gravity.
