Analysis of various mechanisms using MATLAB

The kinematics and dynamics of complex mechanisms can efficiently be studied by modeling at the design stage. This paper demonstrates the application of the SimMechanics library to 3D solid modeling of machines and mechanisms in the MATLAB/Simulink computing environment. Two approaches to the analysis of the kinematics of a two parameter antenna based on the application of analytical equations and the SimMechanics library are presented. The comparison of the results shows that the SimMechanics model is adequate. The paper also presents the SimMechanics models of a tribometric system and an actuator of the device for manufacturing torsion-bar suspensions of instruments.
