What is Swept Path?
Swept path analysis is an essential component of roadway and site design, ensuring that vehicles can navigate infrastructure safely and efficiently. In the Kobi Swept Path software, the Simulation Assistant introduces a powerful and user-friendly way to carry out this analysis with greater precision and flexibility.
Key Features of the Swept Path Simulation Assistant
- Interactive Vehicle Navigation
The Simulation Assistant enables you to simulate vehicle movements step by step, with seamless switching between forward and reverse driving. This interactive approach makes it easier to test complex turning manoeuvres in confined or challenging spaces. - Real-Time Parameter Adjustment
The modeless dialog provides immediate access to critical settings such as driving speed, turning radius type, and predictive path controls – without interrupting your workflow. This allows for a more dynamic and efficient design process. - Undo and Fine-Tune Movements
You can instantly undo or fine-tune every movement in real time. Make detailed adjustments and corrections without starting over. This level of control is ideal for iterative design and layout validation.
Enhancing Swept Path Analysis
The Simulation Assistant in Kobi Swept Path transforms vehicle simulation into an intuitive process. Whether you are working on a site access plan, urban intersection, or logistics facility, this tool helps ensure that your design accommodates realistic vehicle behaviour and complies with regulatory standards.
You control all simulation parameters, which improves both efficiency and accuracy in swept path analysis.
User Tip: Utilizing the ‘Lock Minimum‘ Feature
When large vehicle must follow tight curves, use the Lock Minimum option for consistent turning behavior.
It locks the minimum turning radius, measured from the set vehicle point based on the selected radius. This ensures that simulations reflect actual vehicle limitations and helps validate your design against clearance and space constraints.
With its modern interface and powerful features, the Kobi Swept Path Simulation Assistant makes accurate analyses easier than ever. Whether you’re planning a new intersection or evaluating access for delivery trucks, this tool gives you confidence in your design decisions.
