Customization in MotionSolve/MotionView

LOKESH KATARI

Hi,

I want to create a  template that should take the input parameter from the user such as C.G of the components, Inertial Property of the components, motion for all joints and should create the complete mechanism to run the simulation.

The same template will be used to analysis different parameters components

Is it possible in MV/MS.

Please help me with this

Thanks

Hello Sai It is possible to customize. There are various levels of customization possible.

a) Create a wizard library, similar to what is available as the vehicle library under Assembly wizard. You would have to save various sub-assemblies as system definition if there are many and create tasks or events and use the task wizard

b) a more complex but one that provides much more flexibility is to customize using the TCL API

 

But to accomplish what you have described above, there is a much simpler way without the need for any customization.

 

Here again there are 2 ways

1) Use the Data Summary to modify the CG, Inertia and Motions. One at a time run the model through the run panel with different names for different set of data

 

2) You can connect the MotionVIew model to HyperStudy -> define CG, inertia etc. as parameters (design variables), set up a DOE study and submit to Hyperstudy. Hyperstudy will modify the model and solve in loop and provide results for each iteration. I recommend tutorial MV-3000 & MV-3010 to learn about using MotionView in combination of Hyperstudy for DOE and optimization.
