Abstract

This paper mainly addressed the kinematics and dynamics simulation of the Slider-Crank mechanism. After proposing a mathematical model for the forward displacement of the slider-crank mechanism, the mathematical models for the forward velocity and acceleration of the slider-crank mechanism are constructed, respectively. According to the theory of statical equilibrium, the mathematical model for the forward dynamics of the slider-crank mechanism is constituted as well based on the acceleration analysis of each component part of this mechanism under consideration. Taking into account of mathematical models for the forward kinematics and dynamics of the slider-crank mechanism, simulation models for the forward kinematics and dynamics of the slider-crank mechanism are constituted in the Matlab/Simulink simulation platform and the forward kinematics and dynamics simulation of the slider-crank mechanism was successfully accomplished based on Matlab/Simulink by which an arduous and complicated mathematical manipulation can be avoided and a lot of computation time can be saved. Examples of the simulation for the forward kinematics and dynamics of a slider-crank mechanism are given to demonstrate the above-mentioned theoretical results.
