The following chapters show excerpts of a training session using the durability templates for solving common measurement and evaluation tasks using jBEAM Durability.

Info

To get access to the templates, example data, and additional info material, please contact us.

Info

In order to use the templates you will need a current version of the jBEAM Durability edition. If you don’t have the edition, please apply for the trial version here.

Example: Trim measurement data

...

Step by step instruction:

  • Start the jBEAM template “trim_start_end.jbt” from the jBEAM templates folder (In case you don’t have this template file yet, please contact us).

  • Use the Import button to import one original data file from the example data zip folder.

...

Use the Modify visually button to define the range for the trimming.

...

Step by step instruction

  • Start the jBEAM template “report_validation_data.jbt” from the jBEAM templates folder (In case you don’t have this template file yet, please contact us).

    Rearrange the loaded data according to the loading condition of the vehicle by shifting the data file for the fully loaded vehicle down and rename the import sources by order with the button rename by order:

  • On the first page (and only page) the data is displayed which is defined with the button Change data. Modify this data to display the wheel force transducer data in Fz for the left front and the left rear corner of the vehicle.

  • Describe what is seen on this page by modifying the text line through a double click on it.

  • Add a new page and modify the data to display the wheel force transducer data in Fz for the left front and right front corner with the button Change data.

  • Add a new page and modify the data to display the hub acceleration data in z-direction for the left front and left rear with the button Change data.

  • Adjust for both added pages the description line accordingly.

  • Export the report as pdf file and have open it in a pdf reader.

  • On the first page in the jBEAM Durability graphic window the data is now updated, and you can see all results directly. The results are based on the parameters defined in the template. The 3 measurement files are concatenated accordingly to the following formular:
    2 * (File2 + 2*File3) + File1
    That means: the measurement with partial loading is repeated two times in total, the file with the fully loaded vehicle four times and the measurement file with the empty vehicle only ones.

  • Now modify this mixture formular by modifying the component Concatenate Channels with Transition:
