This package contains different examples to show how mechanical systems with kinematic loops can be modeled.
| Model | Description | 
|---|---|
| Engine1a Engine1b Engine1b_analytic | Model of one cylinder engine (Engine1a: simple, without
combustion; Engine1b: with combustion; Engine1b_analytic: same as
Engine1b but analytic loop handling)   | 
| EngineV6 EngineV6_analytic | V6 engine with 6 cylinders, 6 planar loops and 1
degree-of-freedom. Second version with analytic handling of
kinematic loops and CAD data animation.     | 
| Fourbar1 | One kinematic loop with four bars (with only revolute joints; 5
non-linear equations)   | 
| Fourbar2 | One kinematic loop with four bars (with UniversalSpherical
joint; 1 non-linear equation)   | 
| Fourbar_analytic | One kinematic loop with four bars (with JointSSP joint;
analytic solution of non-linear algebraic loop)   | 
| PlanarFourbar | Planar four bars with one kinematic loop (with
RevolutePlanarLoopConstraint joint)   | 
| PlanarLoops_analytic | Mechanism with three planar kinematic loops and one
degree-of-freedom with analytic loop handling (with JointRRR
joints)   |
