Mechanical Simulation CarSim 2017 Overview

It delivers the most accurate, detailed, and efficient methods for simulating the performance of passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks. With twenty years of real-world validation by automotive engineers, it is universally the preferred tool for analyzing vehicle dynamics, developing active controllers, calculating a car’s performance characteristics, and engineering next-generation active safety systems.

CarSim, TruckSim, and BikeSim are used worldwide by over 110 OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers and over 200 universities and government research labs. (There are more than 1500 active CarSim seats, not including driving simulators or students).

CarSim, BikeSim, and TruckSim all use technology first introduced in 1990 and developed continuously since then. Efficient parametric math models reproduce system-level vehicle dynamics behavior, under the control of a GUI intended for engineers who need to evaluate vehicle/controller behavior without spending weeks of training. VehicleSim products also include the VS Visualizer tool for viewing simulations with plots and photo-realistic animation.
