Hello there, 

 

I would like to ask you for help finding where it is the Altair MotionSolve - Two- and Three-wheel Vehicle Simulation, please.

 

Thank you,

Hello Diogo - In order to access the automotive libraries in the Wizard (Model->Assembly Wizard), you first have to set the correct preference file.

In the top menu, 

1) Go to File->Load->Preference File, select MBD-Vehicle Dynamics Tools, click Load. 

2) Go to Model->Set Wizard Paths, select the Wizard library you want. By default, it is set to Car/Small truck. In your case, you need the "Two wheeler". 

3) Go to Model->Wizard Library, now you should be able to build motorcycle or scooter models as necessary.

As of the current release 2021, 3 wheelers are not available in library. However, there are some example 3 wheelers in Vehicle Tools->Example models. And, the Altair website also has some examples available. 

 

Thanks,

Ananth

Hello Ananth,

 

Thank you for you answer, 

 

I was looking for the Preference File, but there is none in the Altair Hyperworks 2020.1 - Student Editon - OptiStruct, can you please show me a photo where it is then?

 

Because when I press File-> Load-> it shows to me Command File / Script / Solver Template, none of them is Preference File. If I click in one of those it redirects me to my PC folders where I do have some files, but none of them are the 2 wheel that I want.

 

Thank you,

 

Best regards,
