Looking for Flexible Beam example

TimBrown — Tue, 14 May 2013 20:48:41 Z

I have been trying to figure out how to use the flexible beam properly. I'm looking for a clear example on how to actually use this component. I have had no luck so far. I must be be missing something.

The current example, http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/94996-Flexible-Robot-Arm, does not really show much.

Does someone have a simple example? Perhaps using the Flexible Beam as a cantilever, with one end fixed...

How to specify input on MapleSim generated C code

tdewolf — Wed, 08 May 2013 23:38:35 Z

Hello,

I've been working on interacting with the MapleSim optimized C code (first post was here: http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/145427-MapleSim-Connector-C-Code-Api?sq=145427) and two manuals were recommend to me to read, which were very useful. I ended up writing up an alternate implementation of the main method described in the one manual (http://www.mapleprimes...

Problems solving IVP from MapleSIM in Maple / problems with fsolve

teh_allchemist — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 16:52:44 Z

Hi,

I've been trying to manipulate the equations of a mechanism that I've exported from MapleSIM. The system equations contain 4 differential ordinary equations, and 6 algebraic equations. In MapleSIM it simulates fine, but I'm having problems simulating it in maple alone (without multibody exports).

I've tried solving the initial value problem by replacing all the time dependant variables with constants, (and as this is a dynamics problem) I supplied...

Using modelica standard lookup tables in maplesim

faribasj — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 15:36:25 Z

Hello,

I'm importing some other modelica models from other softwares (like open-modelica and dymola) inside maplesim. I can work in a full compatible code, except for the lookup table. Some of the models I'm importing as a library uses the standard lookup tables (not the ones given by maplesim) - I tried to run those standard lookup tables (from the modelica library) in maplesim, but it does not work.

Is there a way to solve...

Taking too much time in solving DAE's

nnm90 — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 21:22:54 Z

Hello!!

I have modeled a 3DOF manipulator with crank-arm type actuators in maplesim!!!

It simulates the model... but when I "Create Attachement>Equations" and when I click on "load selected subsystem"... it starts evaluating but never gives me equation... I have waited for almost 2 hours but no luck!!!!

Any idea what should I do to get equations for this model???

P.s. I have attached the moel!!!

Spectrum analysis of a PWM signal/ to get harmonics

Johannes Fuerst — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 20:13:32 Z

I have a PWM signal in MapleSim and want to have a spectrum analysis of it. The time domain signal should be transfomed into a frequency domain signal, to get the harmonics of this signal.

My first intention was to bring the MapleSim signal to Maple (Attachment->Worksheet->LinkModel->Simulate). Then I had a 2x1000 Matrix which i want to transform with a FFT. My problem is that it doesn´t work. How can I get a spectrum plot of this Matrix or function?

MapleSim 6.1 is here

eithne — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 19:35:36 Z

MapleSim 6.1 is now available. MapleSim 6.1 provides improved performance, more tools for programmatic analysis and custom components, connectivity enhancements, and more. Here’s a sampling:

For all models, the model pre-processing phase is more efficient, so your simulation results appear sooner.
New API commands make it easier to analyze the parameters in your model programmatically. These commands can take advantage of the full...

MapleSim Connector C code api?

tdewolf — Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:53:21 Z

Hello,

I have a model in MapleSim for which I've generated the optimized C code using the connector toolbox, and I'd like to work with it directly. I was wondering if there is any documentation or examples of how to do this? I haven't been able to find any online.

Thanks!

How do I use "make rigidbody"?

J22 — Tue, 02 Apr 2013 05:21:37 Z

Hi,

A right click on the visualization CAD geometry icon, attaching an STL file, activates a pop up list of options. One of the options is "make rigidbody". The units are for the MKS system. I must be doing...

an example of inverse dynamics?

Can I have an example of inverse dynamics?

Thank you,

matlab to maple

dalindaz — Sun, 10 Mar 2013 22:14:21 Z

hello;

i want to rewrite the following matlab code to maple13

L=10*ones(2,m),L(1:2,1)=[90;90];

v(1:2,1:m)=[sum(L(:,1:m)),sum(L(:,1:m))];vv(1,1:m)=v(1;1:m);

this is a piece of program

Algorithme de division en plusieurs variable?

Calling theTemplate Optimization from a batch file

ElOrche — Sun, 24 Feb 2013 22:58:43 Z

Hello everybody,

I' m trying to run completely The optmization template from a batch file (.bat) and wonder how to :

Make the buttons working automatically.
What command should be used in a batch file to execute utterly a maple program
What kind of script file can be perfect for Matlab / Maple.

The point is to run in parallel Matlab and Maple, using a script file(.bat) or another external script format.

Axis of Revolution for Revolute Joint

nnm90 — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 07:04:16 Z

As'salam u Alaikum / Hello!!

I want to add a revolute joint but i want the axis of revolution not to be aligned with base axis system (as maplesim only allows revoution about any of the bas axis-9 possibilities). The revolution should be about an axis which is at an angle from x-axis. How do I do it??

Moreover I will be very happy if you can share video tutorials of complicated cad models.

Thanks!!!
