Only equations of motion need to be determined
Microsoft Word - ComputerProject2_MEC311.docx MEC311 W2020 Computer Project 1/2 Computer Project No. 2 MEC311 W2020 The thin uniform bar ?? of mass ? and length ?, with an attached uniform disk of mass ? 2? and radius ? ?/4 hangs from a wheel at ?, which rolls freely on the horizontal bar ??. In the following problems, neglect the mass of the wheel and assume that the wheel never separates from the horizontal bar. 1) [15/100] If the bar is released from rest at the angle ?, determine, immediately after release, the angular acceleration of the bar, the force on the bar at ?, and the acceleration of end ?. 2) [20/100] Find the equations of motion of the bar, using the coordinates ? and ? shown on the figure as the dependent variables. 3) [55/100] Using MATLAB, simulate the system’s behavior by numerically solving the equations of motion for 10 ?, using ? 2??, ? 0.5 ?, ? 0 0 ?, ? 0 0 ?/?, ? 0 60°, ? 0 0 ???/?. Plot ?, ?, ?, and ? for 10 seconds. Explain your code clearly. 4) [5/100] Analyze what happens if the length of the bar or its mass increases? 5) [5/100] How would air resistance affect the system? MEC311 W2020 Computer Project 2/2 Submit the code and a PDF report, answering the above mentioned questions, using D2L/Assignments. This code and the pdf file should be zipped into ONE file. Use the following format: Main Folder name = CP2_StudentID_Lastname_Firstname Inside the Main Folder, there should be a PDF report, named CP2_StudentID_Lastname_Firstname_Report.pdf Inside the Main Folder, there is another folder, named MATLAB_Code, where your code is in it. There must be a readme.txt file, explaining how to run the code. The main file must be named main.m Zip the Main Folder and submit to D2L. Note: Late submission is not accepted. Note: Only one submission is permitted. Submissions to the email addresses are not accepted. Submission to emails will be discarded and the student is subject to penalty. Note: The work must be done individually not in a group. Neatness definitely counts. DUE DATE OF COMPUTER PROJECT #2: Friday April 3rd at 4:00 PM.
