Largest increment in Testrig
Largest increment in Testrig
(OP)
I am working on a model in MSC Adams Car. I have designed front and rear suspension for formula student car by myself and used FSAE templates for steering, chassis and wheels. I am trying to run Full Vehicle Analysis, but I get the same error everytime: The equation with the largest error was model.testrig.sse_diffl; The variable receiving the largest increment was model.tistrug.sse_diffl (shown on the picture below. I have tried many simulations, from acceleration and braking to cornering and open loop steering events. I always get the same error. I should mention that I currently dont have powertrain in my model if this affects the issue?
The only simulation that works is Kinematics and Complience Test. In this test I always get an error about ac_spring and ac_damper missing, but simulation works and I get results.
I would like to ask for help as I am pretty much stuck.

"The equation with the largest error was model.testrig.sse_diffl; The variable receiving the largest increment was model.tistrug.sse_diffl" These error messages are not actually very useful, typically, as you tend to get a cascading failure to connect parts together that ends up breaking the model somewhere, it just so happens its the testrig this time.
"ac_spring and ac_damper missing" my models don't appear to have those components, perhaps you could look through the adm of the standard fsae run to find them.

RE: Largest increment in Testrig
Secondly ADAMS models are not reliable unless you have physical test data at both a component level and vehicle level.
Third the FSAE sub on reddit has input from more than two ADAMS users.
