چکیده
The set of coordinates used to describe the motion of a dynamic system is not unique. For example, consider an elastic pendulum (a mass on the end of a spring). The position of the mass at any point in time may be expressed in Cartesian coordinates (x(t), y(t)) or in terms of the angle of the pendulum and the stretch of the spring (θ(t), u(t)). Of course, these two coordinate systems are related. For Cartesian coordinates centered at the pivot point,

متن کاملUsing Gröbner bases to generate efficient kinematic solutions for the dynamic simulation of multi-loop mechanisms
Article history: Received 1 September 2011 Received in revised form 15 January 2012 Accepted 21 January 2012 Available online 23 February 2012 Manymechanical systems of practical interest contain closed kinematic chains, and aremost conveniently modeled using a set of redundant generalized coordinates. The governing dynamic equations for systems with more coordinates than degrees-of-freedom are...
متن کاملDerivation and Calculation of the Dynamics of Elastic Parallel Manipulators
Many algorithms for the modelling and calculation of the dynamics of rigid parallel manipulators already exist, and are based on two approaches: The Newton-Euler method and the Lagrangian principle. For the Newton-Euler method the dynamics equations are generated by the complete analysis of all forces and torques of each rigid body in the robot’s structure (Featherstone & Orin, 2000, Spong & Vi...
متن کاملThe Generalized L ,agrange Formulation for Non linear RLC Networks
Based on the concept of generalized Euler-Lagrange equations, this paper develops a Lagrange formulation of RLC networks of considerably broad scope. It is shown tbat the generalized Lagrange equations along with a set of compatibility constraint equations represents a set of governing differential equations of order equal to the order of complexity of the network. In this method the generalize...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium Molecular Dynamics
Statistical mechanics provides a well-established link between microscopic equilibrium states and thermodynamics. If one considers systems out of equilibrium, the link between microscopic dynamical properties and nonequilibrium macroscopic states is more difficult to establish [1,2]. For systems lying near equilibrium, linear response theory provides a route to derive linear macroscopic laws an...
