Roller Rig
When you develop a new driveline, you might not know the suspension model and the vehicle properties, and the only data you might have is the vehicle mass and other general vehicle properties. In all these cases, it can be useful to study and test the driveline model on a roller rig test rig, just as you would test in real test labs.
The roller rig test rig is a special subsystem you can assemble with your front/rear driveline model. The roller rig test rig is interfaced with the driveline analysis so that the ride tire exchanges the tire forces with it instead of with ground.
To access in the interface, select Adjust -> Set Roller Rig Data.

ADAMS/Driveline Documentation Improvements
The online help includes reference information and dialog box help for the roller rig test rig.
Overall Documentation Improvements
For MSC.ADAMS 2005, we've made improvements to the MSC.ADAMS help:
-
Added global search so you can search across the entire set of MSC.ADAMS help. To access the global search, do one of the following:
-
At the top of the help, select Switch Products, and then select the Search tab.
-
In any product, select the Search tab, and then in the window that appears, select Global Search.
Note that the global search does not include any .pdfs (including getting started guides and ADAMS/Driver).
-
Removed any hardcoding of font sizes so you can scale the text of the help to any size. Please note that many of the equations do not scale because they are images, and the help looks the best when viewed with medium (or 100%). In addition, your browser will print the text the same size as it is displayed.
- Documented many of the environment variables for the products to help customize your session. The environment variables are for ADAMS/Controls, ADAMS/Durability, ADAMS/Flex, ADAMS/Solver, ADAMS/View, and the template-based products (ADAMS/Aircraft, ADAMS/Car, ADAMS/Driveline, ADAMS/Rail). For more information, see the Running and Configuring help.
