swinging motion.

Hello,

I would like to generate a motion that swinging back and forth - a
sine/cosine wave form of motion out of a joint. What would be the best
way to get this motion?

Thanks,
Leng-Feng Lee

Hello Leng-Feng,

The driver type to use for this purpose is the Fourier driver in its
simplest form, i.e. with just a single sine term. Here is an example
that you can try.

Good Luck!
John, AnyBody Support.

// Fourier driver demo model

Main = {

AnyFolder MyModel = {

 // Global Reference Frame
 AnyFixedRefFrame GlobalRef = {};

 AnySeg Seg = {
   Mass = 1;
   Jii = {1, 0.1, 1}/10;
   AnyDrawSeg drw = {};
 };

 AnyRevoluteJoint Joint = {
   AnyRefFrame &ref1 = .GlobalRef;
   AnyRefFrame &ref2 = .Seg;
 };

 AnyKinEqFourierDriver Driver = {
   Type = Sin;
   Freq = 2;
   A = {{0,1}};
   B = {{0,0}};
   AnyRevoluteJoint &jnt = .Joint;
 };

}; // MyModel

// The study. Run the KinematicAnalysis
AnyBodyStudy MyStudy = {
AnyFolder &Model = .MyModel;
RecruitmentSolver = MinMaxSimplex;
Gravity = {0.0, -9.81, 0.0};
nStep = 1000;
};
}; // Main

Thanks John,

An demo file explain the use of it very well. In future, it will be
great if the reference manual can include a small piece of code to
demonstrate how to use those classes… like you have shown here…:slight_smile:

Thanks a lot!
