OptimumKinematics developed by OptimumG engineers is a suspension and design analysis software. This software is specifically designed with a user-friendly interface that makes the process of computer aided suspension design and analysis much faster and more convenient.
Key features
- Intuitive user-friendly layout that is split into three sections: design, motion and analysis.
- Interactive 3D visualizations that allows for easy inspection and modification of the suspension design
- Accuracy with over 400 data channels which can be plotted against each other or tabulated in a report. Easily compare results from multiple design iterations in customizable graphs and report tables.
- Fast and reliable solver – OptimumKinematics has been successfully tested against the leading CAD software packages and test data collected at automotive laboratories
- Direct application to car design and setup with tools for Design Of Experiments and flexibility in terms of units and coordinate systems
Design
- Choose from a variety of predefined suspension templates
- Enter values in either metric or imperial units
- Choose any input and/or output coordinate systems
- Select symmetric or asymmetric suspension point input
- Optional reference points to check ground clearance, driveshaft plunge or any length or position.
Analysis
- Over 400 outputs automatically calculated
- Results can be plotted or tabulated
- Graph any output against any other outp
- Overlay results from different suspension designs for easy comparison
- 3D visualization of suspension motion
- Export results to CSV for analysis in your favorite software
Motion
- Specify simultaneous steering, heave, pitch and roll motions
- Ability to import motion from logged data from any data acquisition system
