The article describes the use of the Multi-Body Dynamics (MBD) models, the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and the CAD-modelling process in the automotive suspension development. Automation of maximum quasi-static loads calculation with the automatic two-way geometry update between MBD/CAD-models and automatic load transfer to the finite element analysis allows performing numerous analysis of suspension during development without significant time consumption, and, hence, provides an increased accuracy and reliability of stress analysis results. more...
