Working Model 2D: Tutorial 6 Example 13-10 A 6-ft slender rod weighing 64.4 lb is initially at rest when the force of 10 lb is applied as shown in the figure below. Determine the reactions at A and the angular acceleration of the rod for this instant. Figure 1

Working Model 2D automatically “Rectangle” and “Point”) to each find it extremely helpful to elements of your simulation. you try to quickly locate a certain example.

The Working Model 2D software is capable of modeling the motion of rigid bodies that may be connected by a variety of joints and constraints, and acted on by actuators (motors, cylinders), connectors (springs & dampers), and environmental effects (gravity, viscous friction, & …

The world's most popular CAE tool, Working Model is a conceptual design tool that allows you to create simulations that replace vague, time consuming, inaccurate “back of the envelope” calculations.

You can create a movie from any Working Model simulation. To see an example, select menu, then All Programs, then Working Model 2D, then Working Model 2D Files, then Introduction and then double-click on WorkingModelMoneyBowl.avi.

Start Working Model 2D. Set display and units Select View then Workspace Check the X,Y Axes and Coordinates boxes and then select Close X and Y indicator boxes showing cursor location will appear in the lower left corner. REMEMBER TO SAVE YOUR WORK OFTEN!

Working Model 2D: Tutorial 2 Example 11-10: wheel with Diameter of 1.2m, mounted in a vertical plane, accelerates uniformly from rest at 3 rad/s2 for five seconds, and then maintains uniform velocity in counterclockwise direction. Determine normal and tangential acceleration of a point at the top of the wheel for t=0 and t=6.

We are committed to providing you easy-to-use, engineering software that makes you more productive, and saves time and money on hardware prototyping, testing, and virtual product development. To begin, install Working Model and go through each step of the demonstration described below.

This tutorial provides instructions for using the Working Model 2D software to model planar rigid body dynamics. It discusses how to install the software, set up models by defining force fields and collisions, create and edit rigid bodies and joints, and build a basic four-bar linkage model.

It provides tools to model objects, apply forces like gravity and springs, and analyze results through graphs and measurements. The document walks through several examples to demonstrate Working Model's core capabilities like simulating falling blocks, pendulums, collisions, and more.
