Lecture_01 - Computational Pin Constraint

Computational Pin constraint

In this lecture, you build a framework to use pin constraints in a planar computational model.

  1. What is the benefit of creating a reusable constraint? as opposed to solving each dynamics problem analytically?

  2. In the second example 2-pins and 2-arms, what would an example of a set of constraints, \(\mathbf{C(q},t)\), that would create a straight line of motion for the end of the second arm?
