Motion Analysis

Hello,

I am new to altair solidthinking inspire. I was wondering if a motion analysis can be done to a belt and pulley system in Inspire ? If it can be done then can someone suggest ne which parts here needs to be rigid and which ones needs to be in motion. I have attached a pic which shows the contacting surfaces for the motion to occur.

    Belt-Pulley is not yet supported in Inspire Motion. You can simulate this with MotionSolve.

    Hello Rahul,

    Could you please tell me which is the tutorial for belt-pulley simulation in MotionSolve? I am studying the movement of conveyor with an object on it.

    Thank you very much!

    There is no specific tutorial for this.

    You can find the details about our Belt-Pulley tool in our MotionView help:

    Altair MotionView -> MotionView Panels -> MotionView Toolbars -> Subsystems Toolbar -> Create a Belt-Pulley Subsytem

     

    Further questions should be directed to our Multi-body dynamics forum.  Note that modeling belt-pulley systems is rather challenging and can be computationally expensive.
