I have rewritten the slide crank tutorial so the part offsets in the z-direction are maintained. I did not realise the 2 positions in the hinge joints needed to be the same position in the global frame. I guess this a case of instead of fixing the bug, I changed the documentation and called it a fea...
I honestly find it very handy to build the multibody model using FreeCAD, so I was wondering if, after having built it and run the simulation, it was possible to export the file ". mov" (also present in the tutorial you posted). If this is not possible, a future implementation of this feature in Fr...
Hello, I am interested in using MBDyn with FreeCAD. I have try some years ago a similar module in Comsol. If I remember well, it has an extra cost in term of memory and time to be able to calculate the constraints in bodies with the dynamic module (elastic bodies). When computing only displacement,...
Hello, I was wondering if this post processor allows the export to Matlab of the results obtained from the simulation. The original software, MBDyn, has this function, which is why I was wondering if this feature was also provided in this post processor. I also wondered if it would be possible to e...
hopefully you are still checking for an answer Sure I am checking - both for answer and new posts. Thank you for your answer. I like an idea of defining moving parts in sketch, like in Mads' tutorial with hexapod https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9uY9dXGJA8 But I think it is possible only when all p...
I have written a tutorial on how to simulate a slide crank as done in the sky engineering tutorial below. https://www.sky-engin.jp/en/MBDynTutorial/chap17/chap17.html I hope it helps. The tutorial is in the WB's repository wiki; linked below. https://github.com/mfasano727/MBDynFCwb/wiki/Slide-Crank-...
I have fixed the inline joint offset bug(commit 160). I will be working on the tutorial for the slide crank mechanism. I will let you know when I am done with that.
I want to realize the following tutorial, but there are missing node types: abstract, dummy; the joint types: in plane, revolute rotation; element types: genel, force. I am also not clear how to create reference surfaces or lines which coincide with the geometry. What can I do for this please? Than...
Okay, I will try new commit. Another feedback is, it is putting a word 'offset' in the 'In-line Joint' script. This seems to be a syntax error. Let me know if I am wrong. joint: 3, in line, 3, position, null, orientation, , 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 2, offset, 0.0, 0.0, -3.0; There is a bug with the offset fo...
