SimMechanics™ provides a multibody simulation environment for 3D mechanical systems, such as robots, vehicle suspensions, construction equipment, and aircraft landing gear. You model the multibody system using blocks representing bodies, joints, constraints, and force elements, and then SimMechanics formulates and solves the equations of motion for the complete mechanical system. Models from CAD systems, including mass, inertia, joint, constraint, and 3D geometry, can be imported into SimMechanics. An automatically generated 3D animation lets you visualize the system dynamics. |
