Adams2Actran is an automated Interface to connect an acoustics simulation performed with Actran to the Multibody Dynamics (MBD) solution of Adams.
As a follow-up of the transient dynamics analysis performed in Adams, engineers can obtain initial results and insights of the system acoustic behaviour without ever leaving the Adams interface.
With this solution, typical acoustic results can be computed with Actran, and displayed in the Adams/Postprocessor, including sound pressure levels at selected positions around the model, audible wave files for listening to the sound and colour maps to visualise the sound radiation.
One of the main advantages of the interface is the simplification and automation of the iterative process that is usually needed to transfer (and convert) data between MBD and acoustic simulation. As a result, two proven solvers, Adams & Actran, are combined in a new and efficient way to increase the productivity for the daily work.
