Motion along a curve

Motion along a curve

Motion along a curve

(OP)
Hello, I would like to define a motion along a guide curve.
I imagine suspending a translation joint on a space curve and then implementing a motion.
Does something like this work, or are there other ways to solve this?


Best Regards!

RE: Motion along a curve

As per I can understand your need, you need to use a SPLINE! It's exactly a guide curve and could be based on any variable, for eg. TIME.
Find SPLINE in ADAMS HELP.
