  2. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    A differential equation of motion, usually identified as some physical law (for example, F = ma), and applying definitions of physical quantities, is used to set up an equation to solve a kinematics problem. Solving the differential equation will lead to a general solution with arbitrary constants, the arbitrariness corresponding to a set of ...

  3. Kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics

    The equations of translational kinematics can easily be extended to planar rotational kinematics for constant angular acceleration with simple variable exchanges: = + = + = (+) = + (). Here θ i and θ f are, respectively, the initial and final angular positions, ω i and ω f are, respectively, the initial and final angular velocities, and α ...

  4. Kinematics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics_equations

    The kinematics equations of serial and parallel robots can be viewed as relating parameters, such as joint angles, that are under the control of actuators to the position and orientation [T] of the end-effector. From this point of view the kinematics equations can be used in two different ways.

  5. Rigid body dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_body_dynamics

    In the physical science of dynamics, rigid-body dynamics studies the movement of systems of interconnected bodies under the action of external forces.The assumption that the bodies are rigid (i.e. they do not deform under the action of applied forces) simplifies analysis, by reducing the parameters that describe the configuration of the system to the translation and rotation of reference ...

    In classical mechanics, Euler's rotation equations are a vectorial quasilinear first-order ordinary differential equation describing the rotation of a rigid body, using a rotating reference frame with angular velocity ω whose axes are fixed to the body. They are named in honour of Leonhard Euler. Their general vector form is

  8. Inverse kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_kinematics

    The kinematics equations of the figure define the relationship between the joint angles of the figure and its pose or configuration. The forward kinematic animation problem uses the kinematics equations to determine the pose given the joint angles. The inverse kinematics problem computes the joint angles for a desired pose of the figure.

  9. Two-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-body_problem

    By contrast, subtracting equation (2) from equation (1) results in an equation that describes how the vector r = x 1 − x 2 between the masses changes with time. The solutions of these independent one-body problems can be combined to obtain the solutions for the trajectories x 1 (t) and x 2 (t).
