- Homework Statement
- I want to calculate the x-vector velocity of the middle leg of the walking machine. This requires two angular velocities. The one from the leg (which I've calculated), and the one from the driver (which I've set to a value, see below).
I can't seem to figure out what the total velocity of this leg is. The program shows me a value (see below) but I can't seem to find an appropriate formula to add both angular velocities together.
- Relevant Equations
- You could compare this problem to a trebuchet, golfswing or a folded arm that stretches. Where you have two seperate angular velocities resulting in one larger angular velocity.
R1 - R2 - R3 - R4 = 0 (see screenshots)
For the attempt at a solution view the Excel screenshots (1).
A screenshot with all the lengths is provided (2).
The 4-linkage system is shown in screenshot (3).
The problem is shown in screenshot (4).
A screenshot from the whole assembly is also provided to add some insights (5).
Thanks for the help!
(I did not create this 3D model, I chose this project to do calculations for one of my lectures)
