Some Motivation, Why We Are Engineers: Basic Actions of Problem Solving: Understanding the problem Simulation can be very useful to help understand what factors are important. Generate possible solutions to the problem The solutions that the designer can come up with is very dependent on the designer experience and knowledge. Evaluate solutions Simulation can provide […]

  Engineering Design Problem: When we design we would like to: Improve product or process quality Reduce life cycle costs Reduce development lead times This can happen during the initial design phase or sometime during the products life. The design process starts by generating ideas - the functional performance of these ideas have to be verified. There are two […]

This Course will provide a basic introduction to simulating railway vehicle dynamics using VI-Rail. As VI-Rail is based on MSC software’s Adams package, a basic understanding of multi-body dynamic simulation using Adams is assumed, as taught in the MSC ADM701 course. Length: 5 Days Pre-requisites: ADM701 (recommended) General Railway vehicle knowledge Topics: Description of user […]
