In-game physics engine development
RACE (Rapid Axle Concept Evolution) is an end-to-end MBS (multibody simulation) / MBD (multibody dynamics) software package for the development of suspension systems. It combines model build, model parameterization, post-process, data storage, and report generation into a single platform. It is cloud-based, requires no software installation and can be run from a web browser on any computer, phone or tablet.
RACE requires user inputs to define the layout and tuning of the suspension system. Once the inputs are submitted by the user, the RACE pre-processor builds a full suspension multibody simulation (MBS). RACE then runs a virtual kinematics and compliance (K&C) test cycle on the suspension system. The K&C test applies vertical, roll, steering, cornering, traction and braking loads to the suspension system and the response of the system to each is recorded. The raw simulation output is exported to a post-processor which generates a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to analyse the performance of the suspension system. These KPIs form the basis of the RACE Software suspension performance report which is generated and uploaded to the user’s account for review. The video below shows the complete process of running RACE on a double wishbone suspension system.
