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

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_equations_(rigid...

    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.

  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. Inverse kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_kinematics

    An analytic solution to an inverse kinematics problem is a closed-form expression that takes the end-effector pose as input and gives joint positions as output, = (). Analytical inverse kinematics solvers can be significantly faster than numerical solvers and provide more than one solution, but only a finite number of solutions, for a given end ...

  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. Udwadia–Kalaba formulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Udwadia–Kalaba_formulation

    In classical mechanics, the Udwadia–Kalaba formulation is a method for deriving the equations of motion of a constrained mechanical system. [1] [2] The method was first described by Anatolii Fedorovich Vereshchagin [3] [4] for the particular case of robotic arms, and later generalized to all mechanical systems by Firdaus E. Udwadia and Robert E. Kalaba in 1992. [5]

  8. 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

  9. Compatibility (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_(mechanics)

    The problem of compatibility in continuum mechanics involves the determination of allowable single-valued continuous fields on simply connected bodies. More precisely, the problem may be stated in the following manner. [5] Figure 1. Motion of a continuum body. Consider the deformation of a body shown in Figure 1.
