Hi all,
I need information about modelling a system. Assume that, there is a ramp and robot with 2 wheels. I want wheels to follow the road and (if it is suitable to happen) jump from it according to the given velocity.
How can i model this situtation?
Thanks.
Hello guys,
I'm reviewing for the AP physics C exam and in one of my review books I came across this trick called a VIR chart for circuit analysis. It's a sort of weird alternative to the usual Loop Rule. If you haven't heard of it before here it is...

Hi everyone,
i am currently doing a rotor analysis with "modal analysis" on Ansys and even though my rotor's specs are L=145mm D=10mm and the rotating velocity is 10000rpm i get a deformation of 100mm at most of the modes. I have read that this might be cause of a mass-normalized value but i am...
