Hello to everybody,

first of all,  thank you for accepting me.  I`m a engineering student and i`m doing my thesis work in Japan. I need to make a dynamic analysis of a wheelchair, such as instability during cornering and during climbing. I need to make an analysis similar to that one for vehicles in Motion Solve . And maybe is it possible to make a parametric analysis?  Can anyone suggest me how to do please? thanks

    Hi @FP90

     

    Please refer to MotionView and MotionSolve tutorials to start with basic modelling.

     

    As you progress we can add complex parameters.  :)/emoticons/default_smile.png' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' title=':)' width='20'>

     

    Unfortunately there are no specific tutorials related to wheel chair.

    Thank you for answering @Prakash Pagadala,

    as you suggested me, i`ve already done some simply models to learn how to use MotonSolve, and now i`ve imported my wheelchair in .step format. My question now is if it possible to create a surface under the wheelchair where it can move, and which type of joints i should use. thank you
