  2. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  3. Paden–Kahan subproblems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paden–Kahan_subproblems

    Paden–Kahan subproblems are a set of solved geometric problems which occur frequently in inverse kinematics of common robotic manipulators. [1] Although the set of problems is not exhaustive, it may be used to simplify inverse kinematic analysis for many industrial robots. [2] Beyond the three classical subproblems several others have been ...

  4. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    The first solution corresponds to when the projectile is first launched. The second solution is the useful one for determining the range of the projectile. Plugging this value for (t) into the horizontal equation yields = ⁡ ⁡ Applying the trigonometric identity

  5. Euler's equations (rigid body dynamics) - Wikipedia

    Torque-free precessions are non-trivial solution for the situation where the torque on the right hand side is zero. When I is not constant in the external reference frame (i.e. the body is moving and its inertia tensor is not constantly diagonal) then I cannot be pulled through the derivative operator acting on L.

  6. Inverse dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_dynamics

    Kinematics; Inverse kinematics: a problem similar to Inverse dynamics but with different goals and starting assumptions.While inverse dynamics asks for torques that produce a certain time-trajectory of positions and velocities, inverse kinematics only asks for a static set of joint angles such that a certain point (or a set of points) of the character (or robot) is positioned at a certain ...

  7. Rayleigh problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_problem

    In fluid dynamics, Rayleigh problem also known as Stokes first problem is a problem of determining the flow created by a sudden movement of an infinitely long plate from rest, named after Lord Rayleigh and Sir George Stokes. This is considered as one of the simplest unsteady problems that have an exact solution for the Navier-Stokes equations.

  8. Hamilton's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton's_principle

    Hamilton's principle states that the true evolution q(t) of a system described by N generalized coordinates q = (q 1, q 2, ..., q N) between two specified states q 1 = q(t 1) and q 2 = q(t 2) at two specified times t 1 and t 2 is a stationary point (a point where the variation is zero) of the action functional [] = ((), ˙ (),) where (, ˙,) is the Lagrangian function for the system.

  9. Taylor–Green vortex - Wikipedia

    The small time behavior of the flow is then found through simplification of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations using the initial flow to give a step-by-step solution as time progresses. An exact solution in two spatial dimensions is known, and is presented below. Animation of a Taylor-Green Vortex using colour coded Lagrangian tracers
