Ansys Motion enables fast and accurate analysis of rigid and flexible bodies, and it gives accurate evaluation of physical events through the analysis of the mechanical system as a whole. For more information, see Ansys Motion.
The Motion Preprocessor provides a standalone modeling environment for multibody dynamics systems, streamlining the process of preparing models for simulation.
The Motion Postprocessor is a powerful standalone postprocessor that lets you investigate simulation results and export them as numerical data, enabling you to understand the dynamic behavior of your mechanical system more easily.
The Motion Preprocessor and Postprocessor APIs allow you to build automated processes and integrate with the optimal design tools for your workflow.
Moreover, the Motion Postprocessor API also allows you to extract plot data from Ansys Motion result files without running postprocessor application, saving time for repeated operations and supporting integration with other library modules.
