We are always looking for interesting combinations of libraries and good demonstrations of novel systems, we have many useful examples within our libraries demonstrating that. Such as the use of the hydrogen library with VeSyMA, as described in Theo’s blog post about a hydrogen bus model; or lots of...
Our motorsport library development originated from the need for real-time capable suspensions models to support hardware, software and driver-in-the-loop simulations in motorsport. To enable this innovative aggregate joint models were developed which are specifically designed idealised joints for real-time applications. Featuring a different concept of force and angle calculation,...
We recently conducted a technical investigation into the systems modelling approach to train simulation. This blog post will cover what was created and outline the capabilities and next steps that it could be expanded upon. Basis of the library We used the VeSyMA library as a base, this provided...
The Claytex team was posed a question recently; “How easy would it be to create an articulated truck model with what we’ve got already?” My immediate thought was that it should be easy. The dynamics are no different from a conventional car and trailer and apart from a couple...
What is an Instant Centre A suspension linkage’s Instant Centre is an “imaginary” pivot around which the hub is “rotating” at a given moment. This is because when the hub moves up and down relative to the body, there is normally some rotation around the longitudinal and lateral axis....
It’s early February. Speedweeks are upon us, and the Motorsports community is gearing up for the marquee event on the NASCAR calendar. Heralded as The Great American Race, the Daytona 500 is world famous as a frightening 200 MPH chess match of drafting, tactics and bumping. Drivers look to work together and...
I don’t know about you, but I’ve heard “a Formula One car has enough downforce that it can drive upside down on the ceiling” so many times but have never had any proof of this. I, for one, would love to see this put to the test, but I...
A key feature of the VeSyMA Motorsports library is the adjustments in the suspensions models which allows vehicle setup. These replicate the physical adjustments available on a race car, such as shims, preload adjusters and variable mounting positions. With 20+ adjustments available in a suspension model, a setup experiment...
