  2. Verlet integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verlet_integration

    Verlet integration (French pronunciation:) is a numerical method used to integrate Newton's equations of motion. [1] It is frequently used to calculate trajectories of particles in molecular dynamics simulations and computer graphics.

  3. Motion simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_simulator

    The filters themselves may also introduce false cues, defined as: 1) a motion cue in the simulator that is in the opposite direction to that in the aircraft, 2) a motion cue in the simulator when none was expected in the aircraft, and 3) a relatively high-frequency distortion of a sustained cue in the simulator for an expected sustained cue in ...

  4. Fourth, fifth, and sixth derivatives of position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth,_fifth,_and_sixth...

    Snap, [6] or jounce, [2] is the fourth derivative of the position vector with respect to time, or the rate of change of the jerk with respect to time. [4] Equivalently, it is the second derivative of acceleration or the third derivative of velocity, and is defined by any of the following equivalent expressions: = ȷ = = =.

  5. Acceleration onset cueing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration_onset_cueing

    The above way the body signals motion to the brain coincides very well with acceleration-onset cueing in a simulator. This is the reason why well-designed and properly set-up modern low-latency motion platforms in simulators work well for all aircraft from large transports to the low-g-force envelope of fighter aircraft.

  6. Trajectory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectory

    The initial velocity, v i, is the speed at which said object is launched from the point of origin. The initial angle , θ i , is the angle at which said object is released. The g is the respective gravitational pull on the object within a null-medium.

  7. Motion graphs and derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphs_and_derivatives

    Since the velocity of the object is the derivative of the position graph, the area under the line in the velocity vs. time graph is the displacement of the object. (Velocity is on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. Multiplying the velocity by the time, the time cancels out, and only displacement remains.)

  8. Full motion racing simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_motion_racing_simulator

    Full motion racing simulator with all 6 degrees of freedom. A full motion racing simulator, sometimes called a full motion sim rig, is a motion simulator that is purposed for racing, and must provide motion simulation in all six degrees of freedom, as defined by the aviation simulator industry many decades ago.

  9. Gimbal lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimbal_lock

    The helicopter flies immediately above the tripod (i.e. it is at zenith) when it changes direction and flies at 90 degrees to its previous course. The telescope cannot track this maneuver without a discontinuous jump in one or both of the gimbal orientations. There is no continuous motion that allows it to follow the target. It is in gimbal lock.
