Position and displacement vector in Arc coordinate system
In Arc coordinate system the position of the particle is given by the length of the path(which is pre-determined and may also be curved) that it has travelled so how can we write it's position vector ...

Lagrangian Dynamics of an inverted Spherical Cart Pendulum
Introduction
I have to come up with a PD-controller for an inverted Spherical Cart Pendulum, therefore I tried to compute the Dynamics of such a Pendulum.
The Spherical Cart Pendulum is a hybrid ...

Cartesian coordinate velocity and generalized coordinate velocity
use $x_k$ to denote the kth component of cartesian coordinate, and $q_k$ to denote the generalized coordinate.
Taking the derivate of $x_k(q_1,q_2,q_3,t)$ w.r.t. time, we have
$$\frac{d x_k(q_1,q_2,...

Finding The Trajectory of particle Kept on a rotating surface
Suppose we "Keep" a particle on a circular, rotating turn-table, rotating with constant angular velocity $\dot{\theta}$, (i.e, the at $t=0$,when the particle makes contact with the table, the ...

Why does the radius of curvature is constant in $n$-$t$ coordinate kinematics?
Deriving the relations kinematics on an $n$-$t$ coordinate system is said that if we have a particle $A$,after differential of time $dt$ the particle moves to $A'$. Assuming a curvilinear motion, the ...

Computing angular acceleration of a composition of coordinate frame transformations
Given two coordinate frames $A$ and $B$, we can define the transformation between them by:
$[\vec r_{AB}]_A$, the vector from the origin of $A$ to the origin of $B$ (resolved in frame $A$), and
$q_{...

Do rotation matrices rotate about inertial or body angles? [closed]
I have Yaw, pitch, and roll angles in that order (Euler 321) to apply to a body reference frame in cartesian coordinate system. I want to know what the body reference frame vector coordinates are ...
