MBD for ANSYS can be very beneficial for analyzing of the design of a vehicles  its dynamic behavior. The forces acting on the components of powertrain can be accurately predicted in ANSYS Workbench.

Using MBD for ANSYS, the multibody dynamics of the entire system can be simulated. The complex nonlinear interactions caused by contact and joints between the components of the piston, valve and crank can be captured in the forces acting on any component of the system.

Also, the different loads can be calculated from the different RPM contions.

Then MBD for ANSYS can directly transfer the loads acting on any component into a structural analysis model in ANSYS Mechanical.
