    Calculating Mass Moment of Inertia for Slider Crank | Explained

    Hi OldEngr63, Thanks again for the reply and confirming my troubles. I wasn't able to find the references online and unfortunately do not have access to a library. I am still trying to get my hands on them though, hopefully I can get it from someone for some festive season reading.

    Calculating Mass Moment of Inertia for Slider Crank | Explained

    Hi again, I have come across another hurdle. My system has a torque about z acting on link A that drives the system, and this torque varies, it is a function of theta. I have calculated the total generalized inertia about the pivot point Z, and I have calculated the instantaneous angular...

    Calculating Mass Moment of Inertia for Slider Crank | Explained

    Hi OldEngr63, Thank you very much for your reply. That has solved my dilemma! Sorry if I was unclear with my question, really I have a more complicated system where I know the torque on link A and will be looking at the linear velocity profile of block C. So yes, your response giving the...

    Calculating Mass Moment of Inertia for Slider Crank | Explained

    Hi, I'm sorry my question is almost identical to an unanswered question here, but I was unable to reply to it (because it is old?). I want to have the mass moment of inertia 'I'of the block C, which will be a function of theta. I am ignoring the contribution from the links.Due to the...
