    Modeling Half-Sine Shock Load in Cosmosworks

    How is a half-sine shock impact load modeled in Cosmosworks? I have been able to model a "Drop Test" but the inputs are drop height, acceleration, and surface hardness (type), and orientation. I think friction effects on the surface can also be included. Is there a way to correlate such a study...

    Why are my motors so big?

    Are you ready for a laugh? For the past few motion control applications I've designed, a strange thing has happened. I do a thorough characterization of my mechanical system, finding all the mass moments of inertia of components hooked up to the motor, etc. Even stiffnesses of components are...
