Thanks Ferdo for your reply,
I tried the script mentioned. In this script, you need to select the parts to copy and then the target product.
Actually, I was looking for a more automated way that would convert a whole assembly into a one level assembly in one step and that supports component...
Thank you all for your reply,
Can anyone confirm that we don't need the /3GB switch in R14? I don't have a 3 or 4 Gig machine to do some tests but it would be nice to know.
Eric,(Salut collegue!)
can you explain some more about the BREP thing? How to activate this? Is that an R14 thing...
Forfun,
that might be one way but the thing is that we are connected to a database where the files are stored. Ideally, the drawing should be linked to the part with history. I was wondering if there are some little tweaks that I don’t know of that could help.
I know we are not the only one...
Any hints and tips on how to improve Catia performance while working in drafting for large assembly drawings?
We have tried "visu mode" and "Do not load ref document" options but when we create the views, Catia loads the files anyway wich cause the computer to crash... (Memory load too high)...
Billy,
on page 253 of T. Gillespie, Fundamentals of vehicle dynamics (1992 SAE). It is is written that 'F' is the height of the IC from the axle line. 'D' is the leght of the SVSA. The ratio F/D divided by H/L gives us the anmount of anti-squat.
Do you define a anti-squat value otherwise...
Norm,
The Viper I have studied has around 34% anti-dive but has a short wheelbase: 98.8in.
On our car, the bump travel is going to be pretty short so you're right; anti-dive of 30% should be more than enough in for this long wheelbase vehicle.
Thanks
Alex Laurenceau
BillyShope, NormPeterson,
Thank you for your response.
Billy,
I understand very well what you are saying. That is why I have expressed the anti-squat diagram with a percentage in the formula. The picture doesn't represent the 100% anti-squat situation! But in the formula, if I respect the...
BillyShope,
I have noticed that some books use the term rise instead of lift. Since there is nothing you can do about the front of the car going up I guess it doesn't matter in our case, but I aggree with you statement.
But just like you said, in the anti-squat diagram...
Okay,

Good day everyone,
Thank you for your posts.
On Monday I will try to put up on the web a few diagrams that shows how (according to my understanding and what you told me) to calculate the percentage of anti-squat and anti-dive for a rear wheel drive fully independent suspension.
We can...
Thank you NormPeterson for your reply,
I was wondering about what you said, so I've made some research. This is what I have found:
Take the ratio of the CG height from the axle and divide it by the wheelbase.
To achieve maximum anti-squat* on a IRS you must obtain the same ratio by taking...
Good day everyone,
I have included a graphic image for better understanding my questions.

Here are a few questions and I appreciate any answer or inputs. Thanks in advance…
- Before going further, and according to my understanding of anti-dive, is my...
I believe that you are looking for the icons in the “sketcher tools” toolbar. Next to construction/standard, there are to other ones: Geometrical constraints, dimensional constraints. (Go to view/toolbars/tools if you don’t see this toolbar)
If the Geometrical constraints icon is not on, the...
