AI Thread Summary
To control motor angles in a satellite project, the discussion focuses on using feedback mechanisms to stop motors at specific angles. The user is seeking guidance on designing a circuit for two motors without prior knowledge of machine control, as they are still in the third level of their studies. Stepper motors are suggested as a potential solution due to their precise control capabilities. The conversation emphasizes the need for understanding how to implement feedback to achieve accurate motor positioning. Overall, the user is looking for straightforward advice on motor control for their project.

hi every body ..hop u are diong well



in this smsiter i am taking a control subject ,,and there project is required from us ..

i have an idea ..and that's is the head of the topic ,,little satellite ...


wat in mind now that i must get two motors and have to design the circuit to control them ..

but there one thing that i havn't took it yet ..

i didn't take amachine subject and it's for 4th level and i am still in 3rd level


somthing in motors call feed back ..and from this word meaning i wonder

how can i stop the motors at a point i mean an angle how can i stop it at a given angle

i think it's by feed back information to the motor but ?how ?


please need ur help in this

is there anyone ?
 
i don't know why havn't i been responce but wat i am looking for
is not complecated..it's just a project of two motors ..

to make it simple ..imagin like u are dailing with sphirical coordinates ..

and use the 2 dimintion ,,the angles

i just need is there any way i can control the motors ..to stop and 2 angles i give it to the circuit
 
Perhaps this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepper_motor" link will help?

Thread '3-terminal device external modeling'

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...

Thread 'Question about the voltage between two charged capacitors'

suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
