Welcome to Adams/Flex
Adams/Flex is an add-on module to MD Adams products that lets you add flexible bodies to your models
to achieve more realistic simulation results.
If you’ve never used Adams/Flex before, this guide is a good place to start learning about Adams/Flex.
As you work through the two tutorials that we have provided, you will learn most of the basic concepts
and tasks that you can perform using Adams/Flex.
Before doing these tutorials you should be familiar with the basic features of the Adams/View interface.
For information about the Adams/View interface, see the guide, Getting Started Using Adams/View.

About the Tutorials
The two tutorials in this guide give you an introduction to using Adams/Flex:
• Building and Simulating a Flexible Model - The first tutorial teaches you how to integrate
flexible bodies into Adams/View and attach rigid bodies to them. The tutorial also introduces
you to Adams/Flex basics, such as the options that are available for setting up the modal content
of flexible bodies before a simulation.
• Exchanging a Rigid Body with a Flexible Body - The second tutorial teaches you how to bring
a flexible body into an existing model and replace a rigid body with the flexible body. It lets you
see how easy it is to integrate the flexible body into an existing rigid model so you can gradually
add complexity and realism to your model.
Note that there are additional tutorials in the guide, Using Adams/Flex, that explain many of the
advanced features of Adams/Flex. They are presented in the chapters in which the advanced features are
explained.
