Modeling Customization
Adams/Chassis Preprocessing
The Adams/Solver models generated with Adams/Chassis are created by referencing a series of python
(.py) files. These files can be thought of as formatted text with 'blanks', where the 'blanks' are filled with
functions of the vehicle data from the system, subsystem, and property .xml files. The template files are
stored in achassis/pre_py
To document which specific python templates are used to create each Adams/Chassis model, the last
section of each .adm is a listing of these files:
