为了确保赛车在赛道上的最佳性能,设计工程师必须在严格的实验室条件下彻底测试其设计的每个元素,包括悬架动态,转向行为和空气动力学负荷。
最近设计一个sop Instron结构测试histicated new multiaxis test fixture that applies dynamic loads to a race car. The mechanical design team, based in Germany, worked closely with the company's control system specialists in the UK. The fixture can be used in the lab to test the vehicle's response to different steering, braking, and accelerating scenarios, providing data that would be difficult to acquire on a test track.
Instron使用了Sim金宝appulink®开发控制器和SIMSCAPE MultiBody™以开发测试固定装置的机械部分。Instron控制与分析经理Andrew Plummer博士说:“能够用代表性的赛车对整个系统进行建模和模拟对项目的成功至关重要。”
