DoubleButterfly_fix.world File Reference

Detailed Description

This is the Double Butterfly linkage, but with isolated solutions. This is achieved by fixing the relative position of bar 'b1' with respect to triangle 't1', the ground link.

For a formulation that allows one degree of freedom to the linkage see DoubleButterfly.

The position anaylisis of this rigid linkage can be done exactly in the same way as that for the mobile version (see DoubleButterfly). This is the beauty of the CuikSuite.

This example is treated following this steps (from the main CuikSuite folder):

  • Generate the equations: Execute
  • Solve the positional analysis problem: Execute
    • bin/cuik examples/DoubleButterfly/DoubleButterfly_fix
  • Visualize the solutions:
    • scripts/cuikplayer examples/DoubleButterfly/DoubleButterfly_fix examples/DoubleButterfly/DoubleButterfly_fix
