Baja SAE Vehicle Simulation: Stresses During Off-Road Driving
This MSC Adams vehicle simulation shows a Baja SAE vehicle travelling over uneven terrain. The colour plot reveals how von Mises stresses in flexible components change during the manoeuvre. The stress scale is given in MPa.

A STEP model was converted into an articulated vehicle model with flexible bodies in MSC Adams: a simulation-based digital twin for engineering development. Correlation with measurements and physical driving tests is being prepared.
The upper limit of the colour scale does not establish the maximum component stress or verify structural strength.
