AI Thread Summary
To determine the Lagrangian of a 2-link robot arm with 3 degrees of freedom, it is essential to calculate the kinetic and potential energy based on the arm's configuration. The provided resource from Caltech is a useful reference for understanding manipulator dynamics. Users express challenges in implementing equations of motion for displacement, velocity, and torque in Matlab/Simulink. Suggestions for overcoming these implementation hurdles are sought. Proper guidance on coding these equations in Matlab/Simulink can facilitate the design process.

I need to determine the Lagrangian of a 2 link Robot arm with 3 degree of freedom.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Try looking at this or http://www.cds.caltech.edu/~murray/books/MLS/pdf/mls94-manipdyn_v1_2.pdf; they may help.

You'll need to calculate the kinetic and potential energy as a function of your degrees of freedom.

:smile:Thanks so much Stephen, the links were very helpful...
 
However, because I'm pretty new at this, not sure of how to plug in my equations of motion for displacement, velocity and Torque in Matlab/Simulink. Have any ideas?
 
Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
