For slider crank motion, a motor capable of controlled rotation between 200-400 RPM is recommended. The required force and work done by the slider crank depend on the specific application and load conditions. The motor's speed directly influences the efficiency and effectiveness of the slider's movement. A small magnet attached to the end of the slider can enhance functionality, possibly for sensing or actuation purposes. Selecting the right motor is crucial for optimal performance in slider crank applications.

which motor is reasonable for slider crank motion , where the motion of slider should be control with motor speed.

Thank you

How fast must it turn?
What force is required?
What work will the slider crank do?

There are too many possibilities. Almost any small electric motor will do the job. How you construct the slider crank, and mount the motor, will depend on your choice.

To regulate the speed of a small DC motor, you should regulate the supply voltage.

To regulate the torque of a small DC motor, you should regulate the current, or use a series resistor.
 
Assume that a 100m long (probably irrelevant) train travelling at 30m/s, with a mass of 100.000 Kg passes next to a man/woman of 100 Kg standing still at 1 m away from the track. Since air is massively displaced by the train, creating like a small vacuum/low pressure area next to its surface, I reckon a certain pull may be applied to anything the train passes by, so in this case a person. My question is very simple: this pull can be quantified by a force. Is this force enough to pull the...
