About the Adams_Chassis Component

The Adams_Chassis component allows you to create a direct link to ADAMS/Chassis. The component reads input and output files and exposes the input and output parameters. You can modify the input parameters. During execution, ADAMS/Chassis executes the simulation with the modified values and recalculates the output parameters.

The component can do the following:

• Update the parameters in an ADAMS/Chassis simulation from Isight.
• Map input/output parameters to Isight parameters by selecting parameters from the Adams_Chassis component.

You can use Isight process components (such as DOE and Optimization) to iterate through the design space and optimize the model.

The following figure shows the Adams_Chassis Component Editor:

To start the Adams_Chassis Component Editor, double-click the Adams_Chassis component icon . When you have finished configuring the Adams_Chassis Component Editor, click OK to close the editor.
