Kinematics

Aligned CAE has the capability to design and analyze mechanisms ranging from simple cam-lever arrangements to complex multi member systems with structurally non linear components. Aligned CAE utilizes high end kinematic simulation tools for the development and optimization of mechanical systems. Potential tools include (but are not limited to)

- MSC Adams
- RecurDyn

Kinematics simulation can be applied to nearly every physical mechanism. Results can help predict loads and potential mechanism failures, whilst provide important data for the design optimization process. Some applications of kinematics analysis include:

- Seat mechanisms
- Automotive HVAC mechanism development
- Sunroof mechanisms
- Suspension geometry
- Wiper systems

Kinematic simulations are particularly powerful when combined with FEA, allowing the optimization of component mass vs. strength under dynamic loads.
