RADIOSS can be used to analyze a wide variety of design problems in which the structural and system behavior can be simulated using finite element and multi-body dynamics analysis.
The analysis capabilities of RADIOSS are comparable to those of other standard finite element and multi-body dynamics solvers. It uses the latest numerical formulations available and fast, robust solver techniques. A partial list of examples of analysis problems are listed below:
• | Full vehicle normal modes analysis |
• | Stress analysis of parts such as brackets, levers, transmission cases and closings, as well as assemblies (such as a transmission) |
• | Heat transfer and thermal stress analysis of engine blocks |
• | Full vehicle crash analysis |
• | Vehicle occupant safety analysis |
• | Consumer products drop tests |
• | Stiffness and normal modes analysis of automotive and aerospace structures |
• | Analysis of structures modeled with bars and beams, such as bridges and cars |
• | Linear buckling analysis of aerospace structures |
• | Frequency response analysis of vehicles and vehicle components under driving conditions |
• | Contact and deformation analysis of rubber seals |
• | Inertia relief analysis of automotive suspension parts |
• | Vehicle dynamics analysis |
• | Driving and handling analysis of a car suspension |
• | Analysis of rigid and flexible mechanisms |
