Model Description This training aid demonstrates the translational and rotational kinematics of a rigid body in a non-rotational frame. This demonstration should take 10-15 minutes. Engineering Principle Building upon the concept of Rotation About a Fixed Axis (RAFA), the helicopter provides an excellent example to step into general planar motion (GPM) by first demonstrating the […]
Model Description This training aid demonstrates the translational and rotational kinematics of a rigid body in a translating and rotational frame. This demonstration should take 30 minutes. Engineering Principle Building upon general planar motion (GPM) in a non-rotational frame, this model develops the need to address GPM in a rotational frame by examining a projectile […]
This training aid demonstrates the translational and rotational kinematics of rigid bodies in translating as well as translating and rotating reference frames. This demonstration should take 15 minutes
