TEXT DESCRIPTIONS

Event # Event Description

1 A ball drops in from Group 5 onto a ramp, which rolls into a cup that is attached to a lever.

2 Once the ball falls into the cup, it causes the other side of the lever to rise. After the lever rises, it releases a toy car.

3 A toy car rolls down a ramp, and knocks over a domino.

4 A domino train of 23 dominos falls, with the final domino falling onto a mouse trap.

5 After the mouse trap is triggered, it pulls a string connected to a catapult.

6 A catapult is released, shooting a ball into a cup located at the start of Group 7’s machine.

CAD MODELS Represent the actual geometry of the device Could be used to derive fabrication drawings,

assembly drawings…

DYNAMIC ANALYSIS (USING MSC ADAMS)

16

Multibody dynamic simulation tools are used to simulate the interaction of multiple bodies in motion.

Including physics simulators for gaming: Open Dynamics Engine, Havok, Bullet

DYNAMIC ANALYSIS (USING MSC ADAMS) Simulation parameters can be extracted and used to

verify design performance.

17

KINEMATIC ANALYSIS (USING PRO/E)

18

Kinematic analysis is the analysis of positions and velocities of objects that are constrained with respect to one another.

DYNAMIC ANALYSIS (USING MSC ADAMS)

19

Complex assemblies consisting of hundreds of components can be simulated.

This includes contact forces.

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS (USING PRO/E)

20

Finite element analysis (FEA) is used to simulate heat flow and structural properties

COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

21

Used to calculate fluid flows and the interaction of fluid and solid structures

COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS (USING ANSYS CFX)

22

COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS (USING ANSYS CFX)

23

MULTIPHYSICS SIMULATION (USING COMSOL) Allows the simulation of simultaneous physical

phenomena.

24

STRUCTURAL DESIGN (USING AUTODESK REVIT) Provides 2D and 3D drafting Used at all stages of the building design life cycle Free to download from Autodask

25

MODELING, ANALYSIS, AND SIMULATION IN MATLAB

26

MATLAB is a general-purpose computational package and programming language.

Allows engineers to rapidly develop complex algorithms.
