A Quality and Dependable Solution for Any Size Budget
AutoTURN InSite was developed as a value leading software alternative for designers, engineers, and architects who need an easy-to-deploy solution to assess vehicle maneuvers for small roadway and off-street projects.
Core Simulation Functionality
- Ability to generate a straight line section while simulating an arc path
- Work with a maximum of 20 path sections for any vehicle simulation
- Perform reverse maneuvers for single-part vehicles (reversing two or more part vehicles not supported)
- Ability to use realistic vehicle plan views for simulation creation and animations
- Generate swept path envelopes from vehicle shapes with chamfered corners or filleted radii
- Real-time, dynamically updated information (radius, steering and articulating angle values) displayed for the selected vehicle while “driving” a simulation using the “Generate Arc Path” Smart Path Tool
- Define and hatch vehicle body swept envelopes for tracking during a turn simulation
- Simulate realistic turning maneuvers for vehicles that employ front and rear steering linkage
- Create simulations using arcs, polylines, or splines (with Place Vehicle command)
Scalable Vehicle Library Database
- Includes TRANSOFTM library with four vehicles for generating simulations (Small Car; City Bus; Delivery Van; Semi Trailer)
- Available for purchase – National and regional design vehicle standard libraries available for purchase including: US (AASHTO, Caltrans), Canada (TAC, Alberta), Australia (Austroads) ,UK, France, Austria, Germany , Netherlands, Switzerland, Finland, Norway, New Zealand Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark and Czech Republic
- Available for purchase – Realistic vehicles (AutoTURN Extended Vehicle Libraries)
- View and sort library database to show by region, type, number of parts, class, and vehicle characteristics
Specialized Transportation Systems
- Ability to numerically input or use the mouse wheel to dynamically control the independent rear steering angle for specialized vehicle configurations
- Simulate 2-part vehicles with telescoping trailers as seen on some logging trucks
- Use specialized 2-part vehicle like the Wind Blade Trailer
Vehicle Animation And Presentation Abilities
- Vehicle simulation animations can be looped repeatedly for dynamic and impacting presentations
- Generate hatched areas defined by the vehicle body envelopes or vehicle body clearance envelopes for improved visual analysis and presentations
- Insert vehicle profiles including dimensions within the drawing file
User Capabilities
- Control the display of installed vehicle libraries to show only selected libraries
- Real-time turning radius display options
- Easy to navigate graphic-driven user interface, dialog boxes, and menus
- Context sensitive help files available
