Typical applications for ASOM v7 within the automotive industry include folding roof systems, hatches, hoods, parcel shelves, glove compartments, seat kinematics, front spoilers, rear spoilers and foot pedals. In general, kinematic systems with spindle drives, gas springs or other energy storage devices can be modelled and investigated. The investigation of ergonomic conditions, manual forces, friction and alternative force scenarios are also typical and therefore well supported tasks.
