Technical Product Overview

Adams brings model building, simulation and results analysis into one environment, helping you assess mechanical system behaviour during development.

Model building with Adams View

Import CAD data and build mechanical models with bodies, joints, contact and friction.

Analysis methods

Run kinematic, static, quasi-static and dynamic analyses under different operating conditions.

Flexible bodies and FEA

Include component flexibility with Adams Flex or ViewFlex and provide dynamic loads for finite element analysis.

Control system integration

Adams Controls connects the mechanical model to control environments such as MATLAB/Simulink.

Design studies and results

Investigate design parameters with Adams Insight; display plots and animations and compare results with test data.

Specialist modules

Adams Car supports virtual vehicle testing. Adams Vibration and Adams Durability extend vibration and durability analysis capabilities.

Where is Adams used?

  • Vehicle development

    Evaluate suspension systems, vehicle dynamics and ride comfort.

  • Machinery and aerospace

    Assess the motion and loads of mechanical systems.

  • Robotics

    Analyse joint loads, vibration and flexible-body deformation to support robot design.
