EDGEN™

EDGEN (Engineering Dynamics Corporation GENeral Analysis Tool)

EDGEN is a "kinematics spreadsheet" developed by EDC. EDGEN uses positions and velocities supplied at up to eight user-specified locations (e.g. Initial, Pre-braking, Impact, etc) to determine the time required to travel between each location. Using this time, EDGEN calculates the average linear accelerations between each location, and then calculates the current velocity and position at each timestep between the user-entered positions.
