2. Car Jumping
Test the car with different speed to jump the slope with different angle;
Test the suspension system of the car.

3. Steps Simulate in Workingmodel 2D; Make the model in Solidworks or
Using an exist model;
Simulate in Nastran 4D.

4. Workingmodel 2D Model

5. Nastran 4D Car Model

6. Nastran 4D Simulation I
V=10m/s

7. Nastran 4D Simulation II
V=20m/s

8. Conclusion
With different velocity the car can jump to different distance.
It is safer to do this with a good suspension system.
Do not try to do this with your own car.
