Based on Adams Car, the leading software for vehicle dynamic simulations, VI-Automotive enables engineers to take into account all characteristics of vehicles and their components such as tires, suspensions, engine, and driveline. The aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle are also included in the model and are efficiently stored in a parameterized database to enable fast simulations and design studies. The vehicle running condition are automatically adjusted to match the desired target in terms of trimming height as well as of camber, toe, caster, cross weight, etc. A comprehensive library of suspension architecture is part of the VI-Automotive shared database allowing the end user to build easily different class of vehicles like city cars as well as formula cars. The vehicle can be driven on a 2D or 3D road/track profile by a sophisticated driving program able to push the vehicle to its limits but also to compute structural loads and component durability. VI-Automotive allows engineering teams to analyze quickly and efficiently a number of design alternatives and to generate performance predictions of the model and its subsystems on different kind of test rigs and on a user-defined driving missions along virtual proving grounds or race tracks.
