  2. System equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_equivalence

    Examples of equivalent systems are first- and second-order (in the independent variable) translational, electrical, torsional, fluidic, and caloric systems.Equivalent systems can be used to change large and expensive mechanical, thermal, and fluid systems into a simple, cheaper electrical system.

  3. Mechanical–electrical analogies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical–electrical...

    The usual choice for a translational mechanical system is force (F) and velocity (u) but it is not the only choice. A different pair may be more appropriate for a system with a different geometry, such as a rotational system. [19] Even after the mechanical fundamental variables have been chosen, there is still not a unique set of analogs.

  4. Multibody system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multibody_system

    The following example shows a typical multibody system. It is usually denoted as slider-crank mechanism. The mechanism is used to transform rotational motion into translational motion by means of a rotating driving beam, a connection rod and a sliding body. In the present example, a flexible body is used for the connection rod.

  5. Degrees of freedom (mechanics) - Wikipedia

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

    An example of a simple open chain is a serial robot manipulator. These robotic systems are constructed from a series of links connected by six one degree-of-freedom revolute or prismatic joints, so the system has six degrees of freedom. An example of a simple closed chain is the RSSR spatial four-bar linkage.

  6. Translation operator (quantum mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_operator...

    For example, if ^ acts on a particle located at position , the result is a particle at position +. Translation operators are unitary . Translation operators are closely related to the momentum operator ; for example, a translation operator that moves by an infinitesimal amount in the y {\displaystyle y} direction has a simple relationship to ...

  7. Bond graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_graph

    A more advanced linear mechanical system can be seen below. Just like the above example, the first step is to make 1-junctions at each of the distant velocities. In this example there are three distant velocity, Mass 1, Mass 2, and the wall. Then you connect all of the bonds and assign power flow. The bond can be seen below.

  8. Analogical models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analogical_models

    A mechanical network diagram of a simple resonator (top) and one electrical network with an equivalent structure and behaviour (bottom), then, an analog for it.. Analogical models are a method of representing a phenomenon of the world, often called the "target system" by another, more understandable or analysable system.

  9. Mechanical equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_equilibrium

    A system is in mechanical equilibrium at the critical points of the function describing the system's potential energy. These points can be located using the fact that the derivative of the function is zero at these points. To determine whether or not the system is stable or unstable, the second derivative test is applied.
