    Variable link dimensions in motion analysis, Siemens NX - optimization algorithm

    We are working on a project to optimize the design of a machine using algorithms. The idea is to change the dimensions of key components so that the torque to perform a required movement is optimized. I added a model below as an example. The model performs a movement from A to B when the...

    Modeling backlash into a motion simulation

    Hi, Say i want to model backlash into a rack and pinion or gears motion simulation, does anyone has some tips what is the best option in how to do this? I used a simplified model (see figure below ) to test the possibilities, using a 3D contact between the 2 coupling links. The results using...
