&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of the stability of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;UNSTABLE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;

:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;UNSTABLE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;

The revolute joint between the frame and the fork allows a free DoF (rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with axis orthogonal to the frame), but we want to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;investigate whether it is possible for this movement not to occur (therefore, investigating whether the equation of motion for the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate can be simply &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddth = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and that the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; rotation remains constant).&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:Both the ring and the stator(P1) motion depend on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Hence, there are three systems to which the vector theorems may be applied: ring, P1, ring+P1.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The best option is (ring+P1). The characterization of the indirect constraint between P1 and the ceiling is straightforward: since it allows two independent rotations in directions 2 and 3 of P1 relative to the  ground, the torsor will contain three force components and one moment component (in direction 1). The external interactions on the system (ring+P1) are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the constraint force associated with the indirect constraint between P1 and the ceiling is avoided, and only two constraint unknowns &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns, \Ms_1)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; will appear.

This indicates that there is no risk of losing contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:When &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; reaches the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\text{R}/\text{L})\dot\varphi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, sliding at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; stops:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:From this point on, the system has only 1 DoF, but the number of unknowns increases, since two more components of constraint force appear at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (in addition to N): the problem becomes indeterminate.&lt;br /&gt;

:Since the motor torque acts between P1 and the ring, the two system options for applying the vector theorems are: ring, P1. Since the equation of motion for the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate and the normal force have already been determined, the number of unknowns in these two cases is:&lt;br /&gt;

:The vertical translational motion of the support &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is associated with the variation of an &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate whose origin has not yet been defined. It is usual to choose the origin of the coordinates so that they coincide with equilibrium configurations. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of the stability of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;UNSTABLE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;

:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;

Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of the stability of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:Since the motor torque acts between P1 and the ring, the two system options for applying the vector theorems are: ring, P1. Since the equation of motion for the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate and the normal force have already been determined, the number of unknowns in these two cases is:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The ring is the only element whose motion depends on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, there are two systems to which the vector theorems can be applied: ring, ring+fork. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:The two options seem equivalent. Let’s analyze the external interactions that act on each of them in order to choose one option: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex5-10-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In both cases, if the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; three components of the constraint force are avoided, but in direction 1 (which is where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may appear) there is always a moment (the motor torque in one case, or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment between the ceiling and the fork in the other). Whether one system or the other is chosen, it will be necessary to work in principle with more than one component of the AMT to find the equation of motion. The two options are considered below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and its time derivative are the same as those calculated in option 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\mat{2}{0}{0}{0}{9}{0}{0}{0}{9}\vector{-\dot\varphi_0}{0}{\dot\psi}, \:\:\:\:\:\: &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; come form the weight, the forces at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the motor torque and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Gamma}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs}{2\mu\Ns\rs + \Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The second component yields &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns = \ms\gs + \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is always positive, the ground contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is guaranteed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The first component yields the motor torque: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = \mu\Ns\rs = \mu\ms\rs\left(\gs + \frac{1}{2}\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But in the third, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; acceleration is a function of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, this option does not seem appropriate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring+ fork), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments are different from the previous case: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Ms_1}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs + \Ms_2}{2\mu\Ns\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But if the results for the two options are combined, the equation of motion is straightforward: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{SYSTEM ring, AMT at }\left.\Os\right]_2 \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: \Ns = \ms\gs +(1/2)\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\\&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\ddot\psi= \frac{2}{9}\mu\left(2\frac{\gs}{\rs}+\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The end of the sliding phase can be studied exactly in the same way as in option 1. &lt;br /&gt;

A linear spring of constant k connects the support and the guide. The whole system rotates around the vertical axis with constant angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; under the action of a motor.

:The vertical translational motion of the support &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is associated with the variation of an &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate whose origin has not yet been defined. It is usual to choose the origin of the coordinates so that they coincide with equilibrium configurations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If we take &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for the equilibrium configuration in the absence of rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it is clear that the spring will have to exert an attraction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; on the pendulum to counteract the weight: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0 = \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general formulation of the spring attraction force will then be &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_\ss^{\as\ts} = \ms\gs + \ks\Delta\rho&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Since the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion has been defined as positive downwards, an increase in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  implies an increase in the spring length. Therefore &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_\ss^{\as\ts} = \ms\gs + \ks\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;UNSTABLE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;

The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;

Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

&lt;br /&gt;
:The plate is the only element whose movement depends on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the systems where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; will appear when applying the vector theorems are: plate, plate + fork.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:The ring is the only element whose motion depends on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, there are two systems to which the vector theorems can be applied: ring, ring+fork. &lt;br /&gt;

:The two options seem equivalent. Let’s analyze the external interactions that act on each of them in order to choose one option: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex5-10-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In both cases, if the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; three components of the constraint force are avoided, but in direction 1 (which is where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may appear) there is always a moment (the motor torque in one case, or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment between the ceiling and the fork in the other). Whether one system or the other is chosen, it will be necessary to work in principle with more than one component of the AMT to find the equation of motion. The two options are considered below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and its time derivative are the same as those calculated in option 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\mat{2}{0}{0}{0}{9}{0}{0}{0}{9}\vector{-\dot\varphi_0}{0}{\dot\psi}, \:\:\:\:\:\: &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; come form the weight, the forces at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the motor torque and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Gamma}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs}{2\mu\Ns\rs + \Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The second component yields &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns = \ms\gs + \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is always positive, the ground contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is guaranteed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The first component yields the motor torque: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = \mu\Ns\rs = \mu\ms\rs\left(\gs + \frac{1}{2}\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But in the third, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; acceleration is a function of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, this option does not seem appropriate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring+ fork), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments are different from the previous case: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Ms_1}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs + \Ms_2}{2\mu\Ns\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But if the results for the two options are combined, the equation of motion is straightforward: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{SYSTEM ring, AMT at }\left.\Os\right]_2 \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: \Ns = \ms\gs +(1/2)\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\\&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\ddot\psi= \frac{2}{9}\mu\left(2\frac{\gs}{\rs}+\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The end of the sliding phase can be studied exactly in the same way as in option 1. &lt;br /&gt;

Hence, the appropriate systems for the application of the vector theorems are: ring, ring+support, support, support+guide, ring+support+guide. Since the equation of motion for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has been determined, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is no longer an unknown.&lt;br /&gt;

:The vertical translational motion of the support &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is associated with the variation of an &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate whose origin has not yet been defined. It is usual to choose the origin of the coordinates so that they coincide with equilibrium configurations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Since the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion has been defined as positive downwards, an increase in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  implies an increase in the spring length.

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;

==C2.1	Velocity of a particle==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;velocity of a particle &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;  (or a point that belongs to a rigid body) &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;relative to a reference frame R&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_{\Rs}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, is the rate of change of its position vector with time. Mathematically, it is the time derivative of a position vector (relative to R). The time derivative of two different position vectors (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\Or\Qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\Os&amp;#039;_\Rs\Qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ) yield the same velocity because points &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os_\Rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;#039;_\Rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are mutually fixed and fixed to the reference frame, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\Os_\Rs\Os&amp;#039;_\Rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is constant in R:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\vvec_\Rs(\Qs) = \dert{\vec{\Os_{\Rs}\Qs}}{R} =&lt;br /&gt;
\dert{\vec{\Os_{\Rs}\Os_{\Rs}&amp;#039;}}{R} + \dert{\vec{\Os_{\Rs}&amp;#039;\Qs}}{R} =&lt;br /&gt;
\dert{\vec{\Os_{\Rs}&amp;#039;\Qs}}{R}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One must bear in mind that the time derivative of a vector depends on the reference frame where it is being calculated. For that reason, there is a subscript R in the preceding equations which reminds of that dependency.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[Vector calculus #V.2 Operations between vectors with geometric representation|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;time derivative of a vector relative to a reference frame R &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; assesses the evolution of the characteristics of that vector (direction and value) between two close time instants, separated by a time differential. Hence, the velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_\Rs(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is nonzero whenever the value of the position vector, or its direction, or both change. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE C2-1.1: rotating platform====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::The platform (RP) rotates about an axis perpendicular to the ground (R). The movement of a point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; on the platform periphery depends on whether it is observed from the ground or from the platform.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:C2-Ex1-1-1-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::The center of the platform (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is fixed to both reference frames. Hence, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os\Qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a position vector for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; both in R and RP. It is evident that  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_\Rs(\Qs)\neq \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; i &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_{\Rs\Ps}(\Qs)= \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, though the vector whose time derivative is being calculated is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::As &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\abs{\OQvec}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the platform radius r, its value is constant. Hence, the time derivative of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\abs{\OQvec}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can only be associated with a change of direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::To assess the change of orientation of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\abs{\OQvec}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; relative to the ground or to the platform, we have to define an angle between a straight line fixed in the reference frame (“departure” line) and vector &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OQvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (“arrival” line). For the sake of clarity, we have represented the “departure” line as the direction of the arm of an observer located in the reference frame (thus not moving relative to it).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==C2.3	Intrinsic directions. Intrinsic components of the acceleration==&lt;br /&gt;
A simple drawing shows that the velocity of a point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; relative to a reference frame R is always tangent to the trajectory it describes in R (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure C2.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). Its direction is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;tangential direction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:C2-1-eng.png|thumb|center|375px|link=|]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In a general case, the velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{Q}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; changes both its value and its direction. Hence, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{Q}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has two components, one associated with the change of value (parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{Q}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) and another one associated with the change of direction (orthogonal to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{Q}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). Those components are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;intrinsic components of the acceleration&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and they are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;tangential component&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\accs{Q}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;normal component&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\accn{Q}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, respectively:&lt;br /&gt;

That result may be used locally for any other movement.

&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{Q}{R}=\dert{\vel{Q}{R}}{R}\simeq\frac{\vvec_\Rs(\textbf{Q},\textrm{t+dt})-\vvec_\Rs(\textbf{Q},\textrm t)}{\Delta t(\rightarrow0)}\equiv\frac{\Delta\vvec_\Rs(\textbf{Q},\textrm t)}{\Delta t(\rightarrow0)}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The calculation of vector &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta\vvec_\Rs(\textbf{Q},\textrm t)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; calls for three consecutive points of the trajectory (two for each velocity, where the last point to calculate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_\Rs(\textbf{Q},\textrm t)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the first point to calculate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_\Rs(\textbf{Q},\textrm{t+dt})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are the same). These three points define a plane (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;osculating plane&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), and there is just one circle containing the three of them. That is: any trajectory may be approximated &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;locally&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; by a circle (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;osculating circle&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The center and the radius of that circle are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of curvature&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;radius of curvature&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the trajectory of Q relative R (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\textrm{CC}_\textrm{R}(\textbf{Q})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Re_\textrm{R}(\textbf Q)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; respectively).

Both the radius of curvature and the position of the center of curvature change along the trajectory in general. In rectilinear spans, as there is no change in the velocity direction, the normal component of the acceleration is zero, and the radius of curvature becomes infinite. &lt;br /&gt;

Similarly, the evolution of the configuration relative to R can be described through the velocity of a point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the rigid body &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{Q}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;angular velocity&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the rigid body &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (rate of change of orientation with time). When the orientation relative to R is constant with time, we say that the rigid body has a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;translational motion&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\velang{S}{R}=0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

===Simple rotation===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The orientation of a rigid body with planar motion relative to a reference frame R  &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system#C1.3 Orientation of a rigid body with planar motion|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;is totally defined by an angle &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.If that orientation changes,  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi\neq0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; . &lt;br /&gt;
	&lt;br /&gt;
Giving the value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[rad/s]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not enough to define how the orientation of a rigid body changes when its motion is a planar one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE C2-4.1: wheel with planar motion====&lt;br /&gt;

|| The wheel has a planar motion relative to R. Its center &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Cs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is fix fixed in R, and its orientation changes with a rate  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[rad/s]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. With just that information, we cannot infer the motion it describes. For instance, that information might correspond to any of the following cases:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:C2-Ex4-1-2-neut.png|400px|thumb|center|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::* Case (a): angle  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; defined on the horizontal plane; the plane of motion is horizontal.&lt;br /&gt;
:::* Case (b): angle  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; defined on a vertical plane; the plane of motion is vertical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::If nothing is said about the plane where the angle has been defined (and that is equivalent to giving a direction: the direction perpendicular to the plane), the motion is not defined univocally.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus, the movement associated with a change in orientation is defined by the rate of change of the angle plus a direction. The mathematical object including those two features is a vector. Hence, the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a vector. The convention to associate a direction to that vector is the screw rule (or the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[Vector calculus#V.2 Operations between vectors with geometric representation|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;right hand rule&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, or the corkscrew rule,).&lt;br /&gt;

::Nevertheless, it is advisable to choose a vector basis where the maximum number of rotations have the direction of one of the axes in the basis, in order to minimize the projections. As the axes of the three rotations do not correspond to an orthogonal trihedral, it will always be necessary to project at least one of the angular velocities (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\dot{\psi}}, \vec{\dot{\theta}}, \vec{\dot{\varphi}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). With a proper choice of the vector basis, the angular velocities to be projected will be contained on a plane defined by two axes of the vector basis, and that simplifies the operation. Hence, the best choices are B or B’. The angular velocities that will have two components will be &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\dot{\varphi}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, when we choose B, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\dot{\psi}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; when we choose B’:&lt;br /&gt;

==C2.5	Angular acceleration of a rigid body==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;angular acceleration&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of a rigid body S relative to a reference frame R  (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\accang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is the time derivative of its angular velocity relative to R:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\accang{S}{R}= \dert{\velang{S}{R}}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The description of the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be any (rotations about fixed axes, Euler rotations...). When the rigid body has a planar motion relative to R, the direction of its angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is constant (it is always perpendicular to the plane of motion). In this case, the angular acceleration comes exclusively from the change of value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and it is parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In general motions in space, if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is described through Euler rotations,  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\accang{S}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may come from the change of values of (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vecdot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vecdot\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vecdot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) iand the change of direction of de &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vecdot\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vecdot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vecdot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has always a constant direction in R).&lt;br /&gt;

The vertical component can only change its value, whereas the horizontal its value and its direction (because of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vecdot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;

==C2.6	Particle kinematics VS rigid body kinematics==&lt;br /&gt;
Particle (point) and rigid body are two very different models. From a kinematic point of view, the second one is richer because it includes the concept of rotation (not applicable to particles, as they cannot be orientated because they have no dimensions). Because of rotations, points of a same rigid boy may describe different trajectories.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One has to bear that in mind in order not to use erroneously concepts that only apply to one of the models when talking about the other. The following examples illustrate some wrong statements and some correct ones.&lt;br /&gt;

==C2.7	Degrees of freedom==&lt;br /&gt;
As we have seen through various examples in this unit, the velocities of the points in a mechanical system depend on a set of scalar variables with dimensions   or  . The minimum set of scalar variables of this sort needed to describe the system motion is the set of the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;degrees of freedom&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (DOF) of the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the system is just a free rigid body moving in space (without any contact with material objects), &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C4. Rigid body kinematics#C4.1 Velocity distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;the number of DOF is 6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: three associated with the motion of one point (for instance, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\textrm{x}}, \dot{\textrm{y}}, \dot{\textrm{z}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) and three associated with the change of orientation of the rigid body (for instance, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\psi}, \dot{\theta}, \dot{\varphi})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In mechanical engineering, the usual mechanical systems are multibody systems: sets of rigid bodies  &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2. Movement of a mechanical system#C2.8 Usual constraints in mechanical systems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;linked&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;  through revolute joints, spherical joints...  Because of these links (or constraints), the mechanical state of each rigid body (that is, its configuration in space and its motion) is related to that of the other rigid bodies: in a multibody System with N rigid bodies, the number of DOF is lower than 6N.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::The position of point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; relative to the ground is constant. Hence, the gyroscope configuration is totally defined by the three angles  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\psi,\theta,\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: the gyroscope has 3 IC relative to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Regarding its motion, as the variation of any of those angles does not imply that of the other two, their time evolutions are independent: the gyroscope has 3 DOF relative to the ground, and they may be described through  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\psi,\dot\theta,\dot\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

{|:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::The tricycle is a system with 5 rigid bodies: the chassis, the handlebar and the three wheels. There is no element fixed to the ground. There are revolute joints between the rear wheels and the chassis, between the handlebar and the chassis, and between the front wheel and the handlebar. Moreover, the wheels are in contact with the ground: that too is a restriction (or a constraint). If it moves on horizontal ground without sliding, that contact may be idealized as a single-point contact without sliding (whether a contact is a sliding or a nonsliding one depends on the system dynamics; in kinematics, sliding or nonsliding is a hypothesis).&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:C2-Ex8-2-2-neut.png|thumb|450px|center|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
::A good way to determine the number of DOF of a system relative to a reference frame is to count up how many motions have to be blocked to reach a complete rest. In a tricycle, if we block the motion of point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (that can only be in the longitudinal direction of the wheels do not skid), the chassis would still be able to rotate about a vertical axis through &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If we block that rotation  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\psi=0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the rear wheels are blocked, but the handlebar and the front wheel may still rotate about the vertical axis through the wheel center &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\psi&amp;#039;\neq 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If we blocked that last motion, the tricycle is at rets. We have blocked three motions, hence the tricycle has 3 DOF.&lt;br /&gt;

::The system contains 4 rigid bodies: the platform, the shell, the arm and the fork. There are revolute joints between the platform and the ground, between the shell and the arm, between the arm and the fork, and between the fork and the ceiling (or the ground). Moreover, between shell and platform there is a single-point contact without sliding. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:C2-Ex8-3-eng.png|thumb|500px|center|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
::The DOF of the System relative to the ground (R) can be discovered by blocking different motions until reaching a total rest:&lt;br /&gt;
:::* block the rotation of the platform relative to the ground&lt;br /&gt;
:::* block the rotation of the fork relative to the ground&lt;br /&gt;
::Under those conditions, though the revolute joint between shell and arm allows a rotation, that rotation would provoke a sliding motion between shell and platform, and that is not consistent with the hypothesis of nonsliding contact. Hence, the system is at rest: it has 2 DOF relative to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;

---------&lt;br /&gt;
::{|:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The ring-shaped pendulum is articulated to the support, which is linked to the guide through a prismatic joint. The guide is articulated to the ceiling, and its angular velocity relative to the ceiling  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\vec{\psio})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is constant. The spring between support and guide guarantees that the former does not fall to the ground when the system is at rest.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:The guide may rotate about the vertical axis through  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os &amp;#039;&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (simple rotation).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Independently form that rotation, the support may have a translational motion along the guide (rectilinear translational motion).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Finally, if those two motions are blocked, the ring may still have a simple rotation about the horizontal axis through &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os &amp;#039;&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, which is perpendicular to the ring plane and is fixed to the support.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;*NOTE:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; In this web (for lack of more precise symbols), though the arrows s &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\nearrow&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\swarrow&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\nwarrow&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\searrow&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; seem to indicate that the vectors form a 45° angle with the vertical direction, this does not have to be the case. The arrows must be interpreted qualitatively, observing the figure that is always included when using this type of notation. For instance, in section 3 of exercise C2-E.1, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; vector forms a generic &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; angle with the vertical direction. If the value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is less than 90° (as in the following figure), the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; vector has a downward and rightward component.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The ring is the only element whose motion depends on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, there are two systems to which the vector theorems can be applied: ring, ring+fork. &lt;br /&gt;

:The two options seem equivalent. Let’s analyze the external interactions that act on each of them in order to choose one option: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex5-10-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In both cases, if the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; three components of the constraint force are avoided, but in direction 1 (which is where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may appear) there is always a moment (the motor torque in one case, or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment between the ceiling and the fork in the other). Whether one system or the other is chosen, it will be necessary to work in principle with more than one component of the AMT to find the equation of motion. The two options are considered below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and its time derivative are the same as those calculated in option 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\mat{2}{0}{0}{0}{9}{0}{0}{0}{9}\vector{-\dot\varphi_0}{0}{\dot\psi}, \:\:\:\:\:\: &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; come form the weight, the forces at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the motor torque and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Gamma}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs}{2\mu\Ns\rs + \Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The second component yields &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns = \ms\gs + \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is always positive, the ground contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is guaranteed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The first component yields the motor torque: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = \mu\Ns\rs = \mu\ms\rs\left(\gs + \frac{1}{2}\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But in the third, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; acceleration is a function of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, this option does not seem appropriate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring+ fork), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments are different from the previous case: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Ms_1}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs + \Ms_2}{2\mu\Ns\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But if the results for the two options are combined, the equation of motion is straightforward: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{SYSTEM ring, AMT at }\left.\Os\right]_2 \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: \Ns = \ms\gs +(1/2)\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\\&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\ddot\psi= \frac{2}{9}\mu\left(2\frac{\gs}{\rs}+\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The end of the sliding phase can be studied exactly in the same way as in option 1. &lt;br /&gt;

The whole system rotates around the vertical axis with constant angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; under the action of a motor.

:The vertical translational motion of the support &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is associated with the variation of an &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate whose origin has not yet been defined. It is usual to choose the origin of the coordinates so that they coincide with equilibrium configurations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If we take &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for the equilibrium configuration in the absence of rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it is clear that the spring will have to exert an attraction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; on the pendulum to counteract the weight: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0 = \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general formulation of the spring attraction force will then be &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_\ss^{\as\ts} = \ms\gs + \ks\Delta\rho&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Since the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion has been defined as positive downwards, an increase in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  implies an increase in the spring length. Therefore &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_\ss^{\as\ts} = \ms\gs + \ks\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;UNSTABLE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;

The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:Both the ring and the stator(P1) motion depend on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Hence, there are three systems to which the vector theorems may be applied: ring, P1, ring+P1.&lt;br /&gt;

:The best option is (ring+P1). The characterization of the indirect constraint between P1 and the ceiling is straightforward: since it allows two independent rotations in directions 2 and 3 of P1 relative to the  ground, the torsor will contain three force components and one moment component (in direction 1). The external interactions on the system (ring+P1) are:&lt;br /&gt;

This indicates that there is no risk of losing contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

Since the equation of motion for the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate and the normal force have already been determined, the number of unknowns in these two cases is:&lt;br /&gt;

:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:The ring is the only element whose motion depends on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, there are two systems to which the vector theorems can be applied: ring, ring+fork. &lt;br /&gt;

:The two options seem equivalent. Let’s analyze the external interactions that act on each of them in order to choose one option: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex5-10-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In both cases, if the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; three components of the constraint force are avoided, but in direction 1 (which is where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may appear) there is always a moment (the motor torque in one case, or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment between the ceiling and the fork in the other). Whether one system or the other is chosen, it will be necessary to work in principle with more than one component of the AMT to find the equation of motion. The two options are considered below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and its time derivative are the same as those calculated in option 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\mat{2}{0}{0}{0}{9}{0}{0}{0}{9}\vector{-\dot\varphi_0}{0}{\dot\psi}, \:\:\:\:\:\: &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; come form the weight, the forces at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the motor torque and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Gamma}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs}{2\mu\Ns\rs + \Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The second component yields &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns = \ms\gs + \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is always positive, the ground contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is guaranteed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The first component yields the motor torque: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = \mu\Ns\rs = \mu\ms\rs\left(\gs + \frac{1}{2}\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But in the third, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; acceleration is a function of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, this option does not seem appropriate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring+ fork), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments are different from the previous case: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Ms_1}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs + \Ms_2}{2\mu\Ns\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But if the results for the two options are combined, the equation of motion is straightforward: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{SYSTEM ring, AMT at }\left.\Os\right]_2 \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: \Ns = \ms\gs +(1/2)\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\\&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\ddot\psi= \frac{2}{9}\mu\left(2\frac{\gs}{\rs}+\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The end of the sliding phase can be studied exactly in the same way as in option 1. &lt;br /&gt;

Hence, the appropriate systems for the application of the vector theorems are: ring, ring+support, support, support+guide, ring+support+guide. Since the equation of motion for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has been determined, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is no longer an unknown.&lt;br /&gt;

:The vertical translational motion of the support &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is associated with the variation of an &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate whose origin has not yet been defined. It is usual to choose the origin of the coordinates so that they coincide with equilibrium configurations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Since the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion has been defined as positive downwards, an increase in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  implies an increase in the spring length.

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;

If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;

\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;

Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:The best option is (ring+P1). The characterization of the indirect constraint between P1 and the ceiling is straightforward: since it allows two independent rotations in directions 2 and 3 of P1 relative to the  ground, the torsor will contain three force components and one moment component (in direction 1). The external interactions on the system (ring+P1) are:&lt;br /&gt;

This indicates that there is no risk of losing contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

Since the equation of motion for the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate and the normal force have already been determined, the number of unknowns in these two cases is:&lt;br /&gt;

:In both cases, if the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; three components of the constraint force are avoided, but in direction 1 (which is where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may appear) there is always a moment (the motor torque in one case, or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment between the ceiling and the fork in the other). Whether one system or the other is chosen, it will be necessary to work in principle with more than one component of the AMT to find the equation of motion.

&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;

\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:The ring is the only element whose motion depends on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, there are two systems to which the vector theorems can be applied: ring, ring+fork. &lt;br /&gt;

:The two options seem equivalent. Let’s analyze the external interactions that act on each of them in order to choose one option: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex5-10-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In both cases, if the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; three components of the constraint force are avoided, but in direction 1 (which is where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may appear) there is always a moment (the motor torque in one case, or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment between the ceiling and the fork in the other). Whether one system or the other is chosen, it will be necessary to work in principle with more than one component of the AMT to find the equation of motion. The two options are considered below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and its time derivative are the same as those calculated in option 1:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\mat{2}{0}{0}{0}{9}{0}{0}{0}{9}\vector{-\dot\varphi_0}{0}{\dot\psi}, \:\:\:\:\:\: &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\right\} = \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; come form the weight, the forces at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the motor torque and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Gamma}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs}{2\mu\Ns\rs + \Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The second component yields &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns = \ms\gs + \frac{1}{2}\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is always positive, the ground contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is guaranteed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The first component yields the motor torque: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = \mu\Ns\rs = \mu\ms\rs\left(\gs + \frac{1}{2}\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But in the third, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; acceleration is a function of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, this option does not seem appropriate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring+ fork), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments are different from the previous case: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec\Ms_\text{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ms\rs^2\vector{0}{-2\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0}{9\ddot\psi} = \vector{\mu\Ns\rs+\Ms_1}{2(\ms\gs-\Ns)\rs + \Ms_2}{2\mu\Ns\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But if the results for the two options are combined, the equation of motion is straightforward: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{SYSTEM ring, AMT at }\left.\Os\right]_2 \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: \Ns = \ms\gs +(1/2)\ms\rs\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\\&lt;br /&gt;

\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\ddot\psi= \frac{2}{9}\mu\left(2\frac{\gs}{\rs}+\dot\psi\dot\varphi_0\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The end of the sliding phase can be studied exactly in the same way as in option 1. &lt;br /&gt;

:The vertical translational motion of the support &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is associated with the variation of an &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinate whose origin has not yet been defined. It is usual to choose the origin of the coordinates so that they coincide with equilibrium configurations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If we take &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for the equilibrium configuration in the absence of rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it is clear that the spring will have to exert an attraction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; on the pendulum to counteract the weight: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0 = \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general formulation of the spring attraction force will then be &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_\ss^{\as\ts} = \ms\gs + \ks\Delta\rho&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Since the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion has been defined as positive downwards, an increase in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  implies an increase in the spring length. Therefore &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_\ss^{\as\ts} = \ms\gs + \ks\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;UNSTABLE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;

In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;

:Both the ring and the stator(P1) motion depend on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Hence, there are three systems to which the vector theorems may be applied: ring, P1, ring+P1.&lt;br /&gt;

:The best option is (ring+P1). The characterization of the indirect constraint between P1 and the ceiling is straightforward: since it allows two independent rotations in directions 2 and 3 of P1 relative to the  ground, the torsor will contain three force components and one moment component (in direction 1). The external interactions on the system (ring+P1) are:&lt;br /&gt;

This indicates that there is no risk of losing contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:When &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; reaches the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\varphi_0/2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, sliding at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; stops:&lt;br /&gt;

:The system consists of a ring, with mass m and radius R, attached to an arm that is articulated to a support. The support can slide along a smooth guide. A linear spring of constant k connects the support and the guide. The whole system rotates around the vertical axis with constant angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; under the action of a motor. The mass of all the elements, except the ring, is negligible. We want to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;find the equations of motion and study the possible equilibrium configurations.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;

Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has a constant value and is contained in the frame plane. Therefore, it rotates with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; relative to the ground and sweeps a conical surface. The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; time derivative of comes from this change in direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The only moment about point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; external to the rigid body is the constraint moment associated with the revolute joint:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:None of those two componentes is consistent with the time derivative of the angular momentum:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Lleis fundacionals de la mecànica newtoniana#D1.6 Tercera llei de Newton (principi d’acció i reacció)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principle of action and reaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the frame exerts on the finger the same force but in opposite direction (that is, the frame “rests” on the finger). If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

:The best option is (ring+P1). The characterization of the indirect constraint between P1 and the ceiling is straightforward: since it allows two independent rotations in directions 2 and 3 of P1 relative to the  ground, the torsor will contain three force components and one moment component (in direction 1). The external interactions on the system (ring+P1) are:&lt;br /&gt;

This indicates that there is no risk of losing contact at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:When &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\psi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; reaches the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot\varphi_0/2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, sliding at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; stops:&lt;br /&gt;

:The two options seem equivalent. Let’s analyze the external interactions that act on each of them in order to choose one option: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex5-10-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In both cases, if the AMT is applied at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; three components of the constraint force are avoided, but in direction 1 (which is where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may appear) there is always a moment (the motor torque in one case, or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment between the ceiling and the fork in the other). Whether one system or the other is chosen, it will be necessary to work in principle with more than one component of the AMT to find the equation of motion.

:The angular momentum at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and its time derivative are the same as those calculated in option 1:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
:The external moments about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; come form the weight, the forces at &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Js&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the motor torque and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; moment:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But in the third, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; acceleration is a function of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, this option does not seem appropriate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{Roadmap: SYSTEM (ring+ fork), AMT at }\Os}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:But if the results for the two options are combined, the equation of motion is straightforward: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this unit, the systematic procedure proposed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Exemples de dinàmica 2D#D6.4 Diagrama general d’interaccions (DGI)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D6.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; is applied to 3D dynamics examples to obtain equations of motion and motor torques. A systematic analysis of the equations of motion is also presented.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D7.1	Analysis of the equations of motion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obtaining the equations of motion of the free DoF of multibody systems is not, in general, the objective of dynamics problems, but rather a previous step to their integration in order to know how the coordinates that describe the configuration of the system evolve over time:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_{i}\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}\dot{\qs}_\is\xrightarrow[]{\int{\ds\ts}}{\qs_\is}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
However, these equations are often nonlinear, and their integration is necessarily numerical. Despite this, there are some aspects of the system&amp;#039;s behavior that can be investigated analytically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Equilibrium configurations&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Equilibrium configurations are those configurations for which, if the system is left at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\dot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, it remains at rest &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\ddot{\qs}_{\text{j,eq}} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the value of the coordinates in equilibrium is given by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\downarrow(\dot{\qs}_{j,eq} = 0, \ddot{\qs}_{j, eq} = 0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 = {\fs}_{i,eq}({\qs}_{j, eq}, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters}), i = 1...N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equation that defines the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\text{j,eq}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; may be transcendental and not have an analytical solution. In this case, a numerical or graphical solution may be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Analysis of small oscillations about an equilibrium configuration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the value of the coordinates is considered to be very close to that of an equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js = \qs_{\text{j,eq}} + \varepsilon_\js,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js &amp;lt;&amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon_\js^2 \approx 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the nonlinear functions appearing in the equations of motion can be approximated by the linear terms of their Taylor series expansion. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if polynomials of degree greater than 1 appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs = \qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^2 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^2 = \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^2\approx \varepsilon^2 + 2\qs_{\text{eq}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs^3 = (\qs_{\text{eq}} + \varepsilon)^3 = \varepsilon^3 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}\varepsilon^2 + 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3\approx 3\qs_{\text{eq}}^2\varepsilon + \qs_{\text{eq}}^3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* if it is an angular coordinate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\qs_\js=\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and sine and cosine functions appear:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\theta = \theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\sth = \text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon + \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\cth = \text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon)  = \text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{cos}\varepsilon -\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}\:\text{sin}\varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}\varepsilon = \varepsilon - (1/3!)\varepsilon^3 + ... \simeq \varepsilon\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}\varepsilon = 1 - (1/2)\varepsilon^2 + ... \simeq 1&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{sin}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\text{cos}(\theta_\text{eq} + \varepsilon) \simeq\text{cos}\theta_\text{eq} - \varepsilon\text{sin}\theta_\text{eq}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once linearized, the equation is of the form: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\dot\varepsilon + \text{C}\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where A, B, and C are scalars. In this course, however, the equation is often simpler and contains no first time derivative:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The general solution is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega = \sqrt{\Bs/\As}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The integration constants (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as, \varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) depend on the initial conditions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0, \dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The solution &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the equation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  must be a function whose second time derivative is proportional to the function before differentiation. The sine, cosine and exponential functions satisfy this condition. If the first one (with two integration constants) is tested:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\:\ \dot\varepsilon(\ts) = \as\omega\text{cos}(\omega\ts + \varphi), \:\: \ddot\varepsilon(\ts) = -\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:If these expressions are substituted into the equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\As\as\omega^2\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) +\Bs\as\text{sin}(\omega\ts + \varphi) = 0\Rightarrow\omega = \sqrt{\frac{B}{A}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The motion is an oscillation around the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; whose angular frequency &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; depends on system parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The integration constants, on the other hand, depend on the initial conditions (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0 = \as\text{sin}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv\dot\varepsilon_0 = \as\omega\text{cos}(\varphi)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), and therefore, are not intrinsic to the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position initial conditions:  &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 90\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \varepsilon_0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* velocity initial conditions: &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0) = 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varphi = 0\deg\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \dot\varepsilon_0/\omega&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* position and velocity initial conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\dot\varepsilon(\ts = 0)\equiv \varepsilon_0\neq 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\text{tan}\varphi = \omega(\varepsilon_0/\dot\varepsilon_0)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\as = \sqrt{\varepsilon_0^2 + (\varepsilon_0/\omega)^2}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Oscillations about an equilibrium configuration are only possible when that configuration is stable.&lt;br /&gt;
Stability can be analyzed very easily from the linearized equation of motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\As\ddot\varepsilon + \Bs\varepsilon = 0\Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon = -(\Bs/\As)\varepsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;gt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon&amp;lt;0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; decreases, and the system returns to the equilibrium configuration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:rgb(7,177,84);&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;STABLE &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Bs/\As) &amp;lt; 0 \Rightarrow\ddot\varepsilon &amp;gt; 0\Rightarrow\varepsilon(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; increases, and the system moves away from the equilibrium configuration  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_{\es\qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. It is &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;UNSTABLE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;

:The angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has a constant value and is contained in the frame plane. Therefore, it rotates with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; relative to the ground and sweeps a conical surface. The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; time derivative of comes from this change in direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Conclusion&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the motion that we were looking for (without the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the frame relative to the fork but keeping a constant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible. The reason is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; horizontal component, which is the one that generates  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)\neq\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Hs}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; were strictly vertical (parallel to&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\vec{\Hs}}_{\text{RTO}}(\Os)=\vec 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the application of the AMT would lead to zero value of the two moment components &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms_1 = \Ms_2 = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In other words: if the direction of the angular velocity were a &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Geometria de masses#D5.3 Eixos principals d&amp;#039;inèrcia|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; principal direction of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, keeping it constant would be possible without the need for an external moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Constant vertical rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be achieved by applying a force on the frame that generates the required moment. For example, the following forces could be applied with a single finger: &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D7-Ex2-7-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The value of the two forces is different, but the direction of the moment they exert about &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As long as the finger introduces one of these forces, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  remains constant without changing the frame orientation relative to the horizontal plane (without the appearance of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dth&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). According to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

If at any time the finger is removed, the frame is left without support and deviates from its initial orientation in a clockwise direction:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:In this option, the acceleration &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot\varphi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  is a function of N, but the other components do not yield the value of this force. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The mass of all the elements, except the ring, is negligible.

In a homogeneous rigid body S, the location of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is easy when the rigid body has important symmetries (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

When this is not the case, integration must be carried out to obtain it. If M is the total mass of the rigid body:&lt;br /&gt;

|The rigid body S is made up of a cylindrical shell and a spherical semi-shell, both homogeneous and with the same surface density &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For symmetry reasons, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\xs,\ys)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinates of the centre of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are zero: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\xs_\mathrm{G},\ys_\mathrm{G})=(0,0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The z coordinate of the cylindrical shell is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\zs_\mathrm{Gcil}=\Rs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

:The mass of each element is the product of the surface density by the surface area of the element:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\zs_\mathrm{G}=\frac{\ms_\mathrm{sph}\zs_\mathrm{Gsph}+\ms_\mathrm{cyl}\zs_\mathrm{Gcyl}}{\ms_\mathrm{sph}+\ms_\mathrm{cyl}}=\frac{2\pi\Rs^2(3/2)\Rs +2\pi\Rs^2(1/2)\Rs}{2\pi\Rs^2+2\pi\Rs^2}=\Rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.2 Inertia tensor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The calculation of the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D4.

&lt;br /&gt;
The relationship between angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not a simple proportionality, since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a matrix. For that reason, these two vectors are not parallel in general (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; elements in a vector basis B (with axes 123) have to do with the mass distribution of S around some coordinate axes &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\xs_1,\xs_2,\xs_3)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with origin in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The elements on the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;moments of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can never be negative. Those outside the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;products of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can have either sign. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the B vector basis has a constant orientation relative to S, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; elements are constant. In this course, we always work with inertia tensors with constant elements.&lt;br /&gt;

=====💭Proof➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the angular momentum of a rigid body S is calculated at a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of that rigid body, &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C4.

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \overline{\mathbf{Q P}} \times \mathrm{dm}(\mathbf{P}) \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps, \Qs \in \mathrm{S} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \vel{P}{RTQ}=\vel{Q}{RTQ}+ \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = -\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If vector  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is projected on a vector basis B with axes (1,2,3):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}}{B}=\vector{\mathrm{QP}_1}{\mathrm{QP}_2}{\mathrm{QP}_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \vector{\xs_1}{\xs_2}{\xs_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}= \vector{\xs_2\Omega_3-\xs_3\Omega_2}{\xs_3\Omega_1-\xs_1\Omega_3}{\xs_1\Omega_2-\xs_2\Omega_1}=\matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} ,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})}{B}= \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} = - \matriz{\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\Qs)}{B}=\matriz{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.3 Some relevant properties of the inertia tensor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; matrix elements depend on the vector basis being used:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}1} \neq \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  If it is the eigenbasis EB of the matrix (the one with the axes in the direction of the eigenvectors), it is diagonal:  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{EB}= \matriz{\mathrm{I}_{11}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{22}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{33}}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The directions of the EB vector through &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal directions of inertia for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;PDI for&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal axes of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (the word “axis” implies a direction through a particular point), and the corresponding inertia moments are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal moments for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is parallel to one of the principal axes, the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  are parallel (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.4 Steiner’s Theorem==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When calculating the inertia tensor of a rigid body, it is necessary to make a qualitative assessment before resorting to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D5. Mass distribution#D5.5 Change of vector basis|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Table&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, since it only contains minimal information (the expression for an entire tensor is never given). This section presents some general properties that facilitate this assessment.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Property 1:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; In a planar rigid body (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), the direction perpendicular to it (direction k) is always a principal direction of inertia &amp;lt;span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ik}=\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{jk}=0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for any point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the corresponding inertia moment is the sum of the other two (Pythagoras theorem):&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The relationship between the two can be found by means of Steiner&amp;#039;s Theorem, which can be proved from the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D4.

An inertia tensor expressed in a vector basis &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be transformed to another vector basis &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; by means of the change of basis matrix &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, whose columns are the unit vectors of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;#039;(\overline{\mathbf{e}}_{\is&amp;#039;})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; vector basis projected onto the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; one:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Ps) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}&amp;#039;}=\Bigr[\mathrm{S} \Bigr]^{-1} \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Ps) \Bigr]_\mathrm{B} \Bigr[\mathrm{S}\Bigr] \quad , \quad \Bigr[\mathrm{S} \Bigr] = \Bigr[ \braq{\overline{\mathbf{e}}_{1&amp;#039;}}{B} \quad \braq{\overline{\mathbf{e}}_{2&amp;#039;}}{B} \quad \braq{\overline{\mathbf{e}}_{3&amp;#039;}}{B}  \Bigr]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is easy to see that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{\is&amp;#039;\js&amp;#039;}(\Ps)=\Bigl\{ \overline{\mathbf{e}}_{\is&amp;#039;} \Bigl\}_{\mathrm{B}}^{\Ts} \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Ps) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}} \braq{\overline{\mathbf{e}}_{\js&amp;#039;}}{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; .&lt;br /&gt;

In the LMT, this vector is the linear momentum of the system, while in the AMT it its angular momentum (or kinetic momentum). This unit provides the tools necessary to describe the mass geometry of a rigid body and to calculate these two vectors.&lt;br /&gt;

In a homogeneous rigid body S, the location of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is easy when the rigid body has important symmetries (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

When this is not the case, integration must be carried out to obtain it. If M is the total mass of the rigid body:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The relationship between angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not a simple proportionality, since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a matrix. For that reason, these two vectors are not parallel in general (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; elements in a vector basis B (with axes 123) have to do with the mass distribution of S around some coordinate axes &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\xs_1,\xs_2,\xs_3)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with origin in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elements on the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;moments of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can never be negative. Those outside the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;products of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can have either sign. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the B vector basis has a constant orientation relative to S, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; elements are constant. In this course, we always work with inertia tensors with constant elements.&lt;br /&gt;

=====💭Proof➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the angular momentum of a rigid body S is calculated at a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of that rigid body, &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C4. Rigid body kinematics#C4.1 Velocity distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;rigid body kinematics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; can be applied to relate the velocity of all the points of S with that of point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \overline{\mathbf{Q P}} \times \mathrm{dm}(\mathbf{P}) \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps, \Qs \in \mathrm{S} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \vel{P}{RTQ}=\vel{Q}{RTQ}+ \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = -\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If vector  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is projected on a vector basis B with axes (1,2,3):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}}{B}=\vector{\mathrm{QP}_1}{\mathrm{QP}_2}{\mathrm{QP}_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \vector{\xs_1}{\xs_2}{\xs_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}= \vector{\xs_2\Omega_3-\xs_3\Omega_2}{\xs_3\Omega_1-\xs_1\Omega_3}{\xs_1\Omega_2-\xs_2\Omega_1}=\matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} ,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})}{B}= \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} = - \matriz{\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\Qs)}{B}=\matriz{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.3 Some relevant properties of the inertia tensor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; matrix elements depend on the vector basis being used:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}1} \neq \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  If it is the eigenbasis EB of the matrix (the one with the axes in the direction of the eigenvectors), it is diagonal:  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{EB}= \matriz{\mathrm{I}_{11}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{22}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{33}}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The directions of the EB vector through &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal directions of inertia for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;PDI for&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal axes of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (the word “axis” implies a direction through a particular point), and the corresponding inertia moments are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal moments for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

==D5.4 Steiner’s Theorem==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When calculating the inertia tensor of a rigid body, it is necessary to make a qualitative assessment before resorting to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D5. Mass distribution#D5.5 Change of vector basis|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Table&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, since it only contains minimal information (the expression for an entire tensor is never given).

:If we take into account that the central bar does not contribute to the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_{33}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; inertia moment because it is on axis 3 and its distance to it is zero, it is easy to see that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_{22}&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_{33}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.5 Change of vector basis==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The inertia tensor of a rigid body in a vector basis B and for a point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; or for a point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; do not have the same expression: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Ps) \neq \Is\Is(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; . The relationship between the two can be found by means of Steiner&amp;#039;s Theorem, which can be proved from the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D4. Vectorial theorems#D4.8 Barycentric decomposition of the angular momentum|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;barycentric decomposition &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; of the angular momentum:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Qs)=\Is\Is(\Gs)+\Is\Is^\oplus(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is^\oplus(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the inertia tensor of a particle with mass equal to that of the rigid body and located at its centre of mass &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the theorem is applied to two different points and the equations are combined, we come out with the relationship between  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; :&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The solid is formed by two short and one long homogeneous bar, of the same linear density, and connected to a massless frame. We want to find out the qualitative aspect of the inertia tensor at point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When analysing the inertia tensor, it is useful to think of the long bar as two short bars. The two bars in the upper quadrants have the same inertia moment about axis 2 and axis 3 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\Is_{22}^{\mathrm{quad.sup.}}=\Is_{33}^{\mathrm{quad.sup.}} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, but the bars in the lower quadrants are farther from axis 2 than from axis 3 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \Is_{22}^{\mathrm{quad.inf.}}&amp;gt;\Is_{33}^{\mathrm{quad.inf.}} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{22}&amp;gt;\Is_{33}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
:Since there is no symmetry about axis 3, it is difficult to guess the sign of the inertia product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{23}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; . Therefore:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

In the LMT, this vector is the linear momentum of the system, while in the AMT it its angular momentum (or kinetic momentum). This unit provides the tools necessary to describe the mass geometry of a rigid body and to calculate these two vectors.&lt;br /&gt;

In a homogeneous rigid body S, the location of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is easy when the rigid body has important symmetries (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

The relationship between angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not a simple proportionality, since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a matrix. For that reason, these two vectors are not parallel in general (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

The elements on the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;moments of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can never be negative.

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \overline{\mathbf{Q P}} \times \mathrm{dm}(\mathbf{P}) \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps, \Qs \in \mathrm{S} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \vel{P}{RTQ}=\vel{Q}{RTQ}+ \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = -\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If vector  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is projected on a vector basis B with axes (1,2,3):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}}{B}=\vector{\mathrm{QP}_1}{\mathrm{QP}_2}{\mathrm{QP}_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \vector{\xs_1}{\xs_2}{\xs_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}= \vector{\xs_2\Omega_3-\xs_3\Omega_2}{\xs_3\Omega_1-\xs_1\Omega_3}{\xs_1\Omega_2-\xs_2\Omega_1}=\matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} ,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})}{B}= \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} = - \matriz{\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.3 Some relevant properties of the inertia tensor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; matrix elements depend on the vector basis being used:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}1} \neq \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  If it is the eigenbasis EB of the matrix (the one with the axes in the direction of the eigenvectors), it is diagonal:  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{EB}= \matriz{\mathrm{I}_{11}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{22}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{33}}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The directions of the EB vector through &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal directions of inertia for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;PDI for&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal axes of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (the word “axis” implies a direction through a particular point), and the corresponding inertia moments are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal moments for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is parallel to one of the principal axes, the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  are parallel (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.4 Steiner’s Theorem==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When calculating the inertia tensor of a rigid body, it is necessary to make a qualitative assessment before resorting to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D5. Mass distribution#D5.5 Change of vector basis|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Table&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, since it only contains minimal information (the expression for an entire tensor is never given). This section presents some general properties that facilitate this assessment.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

An inertia tensor expressed in a vector basis &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be transformed to another vector basis &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; by means of the change of basis matrix &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, whose columns are the unit vectors of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;#039;(\overline{\mathbf{e}}_{\is&amp;#039;})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; vector basis projected onto the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; one:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In a homogeneous rigid body S, the location of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is easy when the rigid body has important symmetries (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

The z coordinate of the cylindrical shell is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\zs_\mathrm{Gcil}=\Rs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

==D5.2 Inertia tensor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The calculation of the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D4.

Vectorial theorems#D4.4 Teorema del Moment Cinètic (TMC): formulació general|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;reference frame RTQ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; has a translational motion relative to a Galilean one): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \overline{\mathbf{Q P}} \times \mathrm{dm}(\mathbf{P}) \overline{\mathbf{v}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{P}) \equiv \mathrm{II}(\mathbf{Q}) \bar{\Omega}_{\text {RTQ }}^{\mathrm{s}}=\mathrm{II}(\mathbf{Q}) \bar{\Omega}_{\text {Gal }}^{\mathrm{s}} .&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The relationship between angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{S}{Gal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not a simple proportionality, since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a matrix. For that reason, these two vectors are not parallel in general (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; elements in a vector basis B (with axes 123) have to do with the mass distribution of S around some coordinate axes &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\xs_1,\xs_2,\xs_3)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with origin in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I_{ii} = \sum_S [x_j^2(\Ps)+x_k^2(\Ps)]dm(\Ps) = \sum_S \delta_i^2(\Ps) dm(\Ps) \geq 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\delta_i(\Ps) = \text{distance from } (\Ps) \text{to axis i})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I_{ij} = I_{ji} = - \sum_S x_i(\Ps)x_j(\Ps)dm(\Ps), \text{ either sign}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elements on the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;moments of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can never be negative. Those outside the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;products of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can have either sign. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the B vector basis has a constant orientation relative to S, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; elements are constant. In this course, we always work with inertia tensors with constant elements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭Proof➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the angular momentum of a rigid body S is calculated at a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of that rigid body, &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C4. Rigid body kinematics#C4.1 Velocity distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;rigid body kinematics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; can be applied to relate the velocity of all the points of S with that of point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \overline{\mathbf{Q P}} \times \mathrm{dm}(\mathbf{P}) \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps, \Qs \in \mathrm{S} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \vel{P}{RTQ}=\vel{Q}{RTQ}+ \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = -\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If vector  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is projected on a vector basis B with axes (1,2,3):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}}{B}=\vector{\mathrm{QP}_1}{\mathrm{QP}_2}{\mathrm{QP}_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \vector{\xs_1}{\xs_2}{\xs_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}= \vector{\xs_2\Omega_3-\xs_3\Omega_2}{\xs_3\Omega_1-\xs_1\Omega_3}{\xs_1\Omega_2-\xs_2\Omega_1}=\matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} ,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})}{B}= \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} = - \matriz{\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\Qs)}{B}=\matriz{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

If it is the eigenbasis EB of the matrix (the one with the axes in the direction of the eigenvectors), it is diagonal:  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{EB}= \matriz{\mathrm{I}_{11}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{22}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{33}}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The directions of the EB vector through &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal directions of inertia for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;PDI for&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal axes of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (the word “axis” implies a direction through a particular point), and the corresponding inertia moments are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal moments for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

==D5.4 Steiner’s Theorem==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When calculating the inertia tensor of a rigid body, it is necessary to make a qualitative assessment before resorting to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D5. Mass distribution#D5.5 Change of vector basis|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Table&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, since it only contains minimal information (the expression for an entire tensor is never given). This section presents some general properties that facilitate this assessment.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Property 1:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; In a planar rigid body (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), the direction perpendicular to it (direction k) is always a principal direction of inertia &amp;lt;span&amp;gt; (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ik}=\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{jk}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; for any point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the corresponding inertia moment is the sum of the other two (Pythagoras theorem):&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The inertia tensor of a rigid body in a vector basis B and for a point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; or for a point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; do not have the same expression: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Ps) \neq \Is\Is(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; . The relationship between the two can be found by means of Steiner&amp;#039;s Theorem, which can be proved from the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D4. Vectorial theorems#D4.8 Barycentric decomposition of the angular momentum|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;barycentric decomposition &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; of the angular momentum:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is^\oplus(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the inertia tensor of a particle with mass equal to that of the rigid body and located at its centre of mass &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the theorem is applied to two different points and the equations are combined, we come out with the relationship between  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; :&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
When analysing the inertia tensor, it is useful to think of the long bar as two short bars. The two bars in the upper quadrants have the same inertia moment about axis 2 and axis 3 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\Is_{22}^{\mathrm{quad.sup.}}=\Is_{33}^{\mathrm{quad.sup.}} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, but the bars in the lower quadrants are farther from axis 2 than from axis 3 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \Is_{22}^{\mathrm{quad.inf.}}&amp;gt;\Is_{33}^{\mathrm{quad.inf.}} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{22}&amp;gt;\Is_{33}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:Since there is no symmetry about axis 3, it is difficult to guess the sign of the inertia product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{23}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; . Therefore:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In the LMT, this vector is the linear momentum of the system, while in the AMT it its angular momentum (or kinetic momentum). This unit provides the tools necessary to describe the mass geometry of a rigid body and to calculate these two vectors.&lt;br /&gt;

In this course it is represented by the letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

In a homogeneous rigid body S, the location of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is easy when the rigid body has important symmetries (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D5.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
When this is not the case, integration must be carried out to obtain it. If M is the total mass of the rigid body:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{M}} \int_\mathrm{S}\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)\overline{\Os_\Rs\Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

From this information and for rigid bodies S formed by several of these elements &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\is&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the position of the centre of mass can be found as a weighted average of the position of each &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{G}_\is&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

:[[File:ExD5-1-neut.png|thumb|center|140px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The rigid body S is made up of a cylindrical shell and a spherical semi-shell, both homogeneous and with the same surface density &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For symmetry reasons, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\xs,\ys)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; coordinates of the centre of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are zero: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\xs_\mathrm{G},\ys_\mathrm{G})=(0,0)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The z coordinate of the cylindrical shell is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\zs_\mathrm{Gcil}=\Rs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. That of the spherical semi-shell can be found from the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D5.

:The mass of each element is the product of the surface density by the surface area of the element:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\zs_\mathrm{G}=\frac{\ms_\mathrm{sph}\zs_\mathrm{Gsph}+\ms_\mathrm{cyl}\zs_\mathrm{Gcyl}}{\ms_\mathrm{sph}+\ms_\mathrm{cyl}}=\frac{2\pi\Rs^2(3/2)\Rs +2\pi\Rs^2(1/2)\Rs}{2\pi\Rs^2+2\pi\Rs^2}=\Rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The elements on the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;moments of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can never be negative. Those outside the diagonal (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;products of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and can have either sign. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the B vector basis has a constant orientation relative to S, the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{I}_\mathrm{ii}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; elements are constant. In this course, we always work with inertia tensors with constant elements.&lt;br /&gt;

=====💭Proof➕=====&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
When the angular momentum of a rigid body S is calculated at a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of that rigid body, &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C4. Rigid body kinematics#C4.1 Velocity distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;rigid body kinematics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; can be applied to relate the velocity of all the points of S with that of point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \overline{\mathbf{Q P}} \times \mathrm{dm}(\mathbf{P}) \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps, \Qs \in \mathrm{S} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \vel{P}{RTQ}=\vel{Q}{RTQ}+ \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = \velang{S}{RTQ} \times \QPvec = -\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\mathbf{Q})=\int_{\mathrm{s}} \QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If vector  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is projected on a vector basis B with axes (1,2,3):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ}}{B}=\vector{\mathrm{QP}_1}{\mathrm{QP}_2}{\mathrm{QP}_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \vector{\xs_1}{\xs_2}{\xs_3} \times \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}= \vector{\xs_2\Omega_3-\xs_3\Omega_2}{\xs_3\Omega_1-\xs_1\Omega_3}{\xs_1\Omega_2-\xs_2\Omega_1}=\matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} ,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\QPvec \times (\QPvec \times \velang{S}{RTQ})}{B}= \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \matriz{0}{-\xs_3}{\xs_2}{\xs_3}{0}{-\xs_1}{-\xs_2}{\xs_1}{0} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} = - \matriz{\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_2}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{-\xs_1\xs_3}{-\xs_2\xs_3}{\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_{\text {RTQ }}(\Qs)}{B}=\matriz{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_3^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1\xs_3)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} {-\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_2\xs_3\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)}{\int_{\mathrm{s}}(\xs_1^2 + \xs_2^2)\mathrm{dm}(\Ps)} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3} \equiv \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D5.3 Some relevant properties of the inertia tensor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{II}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; matrix elements depend on the vector basis being used:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}1} \neq \Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_{\mathrm{B}2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  If it is the eigenbasis EB of the matrix (the one with the axes in the direction of the eigenvectors), it is diagonal:  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Bigr[\mathrm{II}(\Qs) \Bigr]_\mathrm{EB}= \matriz{\mathrm{I}_{11}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{22}}{0}{0}{0}{\mathrm{I}_{33}}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The directions of the EB vector through &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal directions of inertia for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;PDI for&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal axes of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (the word “axis” implies a direction through a particular point), and the corresponding inertia moments are the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;principal moments for point&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.

When calculating the inertia tensor of a rigid body, it is necessary to make a qualitative assessment before resorting to the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D5. Mass distribution#D5.5 Change of vector basis|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Table&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, since it only contains minimal information (the expression for an entire tensor is never given). This section presents some general properties that facilitate this assessment.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The solid is formed by two short and one long homogeneous bar, of the same linear density, and connected to a massless frame. We want to find out the qualitative aspect of the inertia tensor at point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Os&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When analysing the inertia tensor, it is useful to think of the long bar as two short bars. The two bars in the upper quadrants have the same inertia moment about axis 2 and axis 3 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\Is_{22}^{\mathrm{quad.sup.}}=\Is_{33}^{\mathrm{quad.sup.}} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, but the bars in the lower quadrants are farther from axis 2 than from axis 3 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \Is_{22}^{\mathrm{quad.inf.}}&amp;gt;\Is_{33}^{\mathrm{quad.inf.}} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{22}&amp;gt;\Is_{33}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
:Since there is no symmetry about axis 3, it is difficult to guess the sign of the inertia product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{23}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; . Therefore:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is_{23}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; sign can be deduced easily if tensor &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Is\Is(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is referred to the tensors of the four identical bars to their centres of mass through Steiner&amp;#039;s theorem:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

An inertia tensor expressed in a vector basis &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be transformed to another vector basis &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; by means of the change of basis matrix &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, whose columns are the unit vectors of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;#039;(\overline{\mathbf{e}}_{\is&amp;#039;})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; vector basis projected onto the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{B}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; one:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In this course, only the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;version of the theorems for the case of constant matter&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; systems is presented. Although this includes systems with fluids, the application examples in this course are essentially multibody systems made up of rigid bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When addressing a problem, it is essential to identify the unknowns contained in the system under study and to analyze whether the vector theorems provide a sufficient number of equations to solve them all (one must know whether the problem is determinate or indeterminate!). The unknowns can be classified into two groups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The DoF of a mechanical system can be &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2._Movement_of_a_mechanical_system#C2.7_Degrees_of_freedom|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;free&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2._Movement_of_a_mechanical_system#C2.7_Degrees_of_freedom|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;actuated&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; (or forced, associated with &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.6_Interactions_through_linear_and_rotatory_actuators|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;actuators&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. In both cases, their initial value (the value when an experiment begins or the system is started) is known. In the case of free DoF, the evolution of those initial values is not known: it is an unknown. The problem is said to be one of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct dynamics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is also the case when dealing with actuated DoF if the action of the associated actuator is known (i.e. when the value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; - in the case of linear actuators – or of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; – in the case of rotational actuators – is known). The problem is also one of direct dynamics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equations governing the evolution of the DoF are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;equations of motion&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. If the DoF are described by time derivatives of coordinates (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\qs}_i &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with i=1,2,3...), their time evolution is the second time derivative of these coordinates (accelerations).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For a system with 2 free DoF described, for example, by (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), these equations would have the following general appearance:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs} = f_{\xs}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta} = f_{\theta}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\xs},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dependency on the second time derivatives (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is always linear, while the dependence on the coordinates and velocities (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) can be of any type. The dynamic parameters are the mass of the elements and those associated with their distribution in space, and the parameters associated with the interactions on the system (spring and damper constants, coefficients of friction, gravitational field constants...); the geometric parameters have to do with the shape of the elements of the system (distances and angles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes, the actions of the actuators (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are not known, while the time evolutions of the actuated DoF are given. Then, the unknowns associated with the actuated DoF are the value of the forces (in the case of linear actuators) and moments (in the case of rotational actuators) necessary to guarantee these given evolutions. The problem is one of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inverse dynamics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the case of the previous example, if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is given, the equations that describe the unknowns of the problem associated with the DoF are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs} = f_{\xs}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = f_{\theta}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\xs},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; would be the motor torque of the rotatory actuator associated with the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
These unknowns are the values of the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;constraint torsor&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; components. The number of unknowns associated with the constraints depends on the description given of them (&amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.4_Direct_constraint_interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.5_Indirect_constraint_interactions:_Constraint_Auxiliary_Elements_(CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;indirect constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;). When a dynamics problem is indeterminate, the indeterminacy always refers to the constraint torsor components, never to the DoF (free or forced). &lt;br /&gt;

==D4.1 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in Galilean reference frames==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Linear Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (LMT) is obtained by applying Newton&amp;#039;s second law to each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the system. If the chosen reference frame is Galilean:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the interaction resultant force on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Forces on a particle of a system with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces acting on each particle can be classified into two groups: internal (which come from the interaction with other particles in the system) and external (associated with interactions with elements external to the system): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\is\ns\ts\rightarrow\Ps}+\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If these equations are added for all particles, the internal forces between pairs of particles cancel out two by two by the principle of action and reaction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\Ps_j\rightarrow\Ps_i}+\F{\Ps_i\rightarrow\Ps_j}=\vec{0}\Rightarrow\sum_\Ps\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\:\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The term on the left-hand side is the resultant of external forces on the system, and is often written simply as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term on the right-hand side can be rewritten as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\Ms\equiv\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a weighted acceleration, where the weighting is proportional to the mass of each particle. This acceleration is associated with a point called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) of the system, and in this course it is designated by letter G. For any reference frame, then, the kinematics of G are described by the equations (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps},\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_{\Ps}}{\Ms}\vel{P}{R},\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Centre of mass (r of inertia) of a ystem with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In continuous sets of particles (such as a set of rigid or deformable bodies, or fluids), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps}\right),\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vel{P}{R}\right),\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\acc{P}{R}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, the LMT is written as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\:\acc{G}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This equation is very similar to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the centre of mass G behaves as if it were a particle of mass equal to the total mass of the system, and on which all the forces external to the system acted. Despite the parallelism between the LMT and the particle dynamics equation, there are two fundamental differences:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the mass of the system is not localized at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; might be even located in a massless region of the system, as in the case of a homogeneous ring);&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the external forces are not applied to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in general.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The LMT is so named because it allows us to know the evolution, based on the knowledge of the initial &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; and the external interactions, of the linear momentum of the system (which, in any reference frame R, is defined as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_\Ps\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{R}=\Ms\vel{G}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\acc{G}{RGal}=\dert{\Ms\vel{G}{RGal}}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The location of the center of mass in the systems under study (whether it is a single rigid body or a multi-body system) is briefly introduced in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. For homogeneous bodies with very simple geometry, the position of G can often be deduced from the body symmetries. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In planar problems (with 2D kinematics), only the two components of the LMT contained in the plane of motion are interesting.&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.1: calculation of a constraint force ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:D4-Ex1-1-neut.png|thumb|center|180px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The three homogeneous blocks are smooth, and are in contact with each other and with a smooth horizontal ground. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;value of the horizontal constraint force between blocks Q and S&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; when a horizontal force F is applied to the block on the left.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All constraints appearing in this system are multiple-point contacts between smooth surfaces. Therefore, each associated torsor, characterized at a contact point, contains a force and a moment component (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.4 Direct constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example D3.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;). However, in the application of the LMT only the forces are involved, so the moments will not be shown in the following figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order for the constraint force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; to appear in the horizontal component of the LMT, the theorem must be applied to a system where this force is external. For example, to block S: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss})=(3\ms)[\rightarrow \as_\epsilon(\Gs_\Ss)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex1-2-eng.png.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the motion of the three blocks caused by force F is the same, the acceleration can be obtained through the LMT applied to the whole system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs = (6\ms)\as_\epsilon(\Gs)\Rightarrow\as_\epsilon(\Gs)=\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}\Rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}=3\ms\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}=\frac{\Fs}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.2: initial motion of a system ====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex2-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous blocks are initially at rest on a rough floor, and connected by a spring compressed with tension &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0=\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and an inextensible thread. At a certain instant, the thread is cut and the system begins to move.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;acceleration of the center of inertia of the system relative to the ground&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. This acceleration can be obtained from the horizontal component of the LMT applied to the whole system. The spring is internal, and therefore its force does not appear: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}+\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}=(3\ms)\acc{G}{T}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces of the ground on the blocks can be constraint forces (if the blocks do not move, in which case they are unknown), or friction forces (if the blocks move relative to the ground, in which case they are formulable). It may also happen that one block slides and the other does not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The value of a constraint force adapts itself to ensure a restriction. In the case of blocks, it is necessary to investigate whether these forces can reach the value required to prevent the blocks from sliding on the ground, and are bounded by the value of the coefficient of static friction between blocks and ground:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}=0,6\cdot 2\ms\gs=1,2\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{terra}\rightarrow\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow\ms}=0.4\cdot \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the LMT to each block separately, the spring force becomes external. That force (of value mg) can be counteracted by the constraint force in the case of the block of mass 2m (hence, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon(2\ms) = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), but not in the case of the block of mass m:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex2-2-eng.png|thumb|center|450px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Application of the LMT to the block of mass m leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow2\ms}+\F{\text{spring}\rightarrow2\ms}=2\ms\acc{2m}{T} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=(\rightarrow\ms\gs)+(\leftarrow\ms\gs)=0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\acc{m}{T}=(\rightarrow 0,8\gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\frac{2\ms\acc{2m}{T}+\ms\acc{m}{T}}{3\ms}=\frac{0,8}{3}\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.3: limit condition ====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex3-1-neut.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous sphere of mass M is in contact with two identical wedges of mass m, which are on the ground. There is no friction between the sphere and the wedges, but friction coefficient between wedges and ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The system is initially at rest relative to the ground. We want to determine the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;maximum value of M, as a function of m, that allows the system to remain at rest.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If nothing moves, the horizontal interaction forces between ground and wedges are constraint forces, and do not exceed the limit value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;/mu\ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where N is the normal force that the ground exerts on each wedge). The constraint torsor of the ground on the wedges also contains a resultant moment perpendicular to the figure. If we want to study the possibility of the wedges overturning, this moment is relevant. But in this example, the shape of the wedges guarantees that they do not overturn, so we must take into account the forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the LMT to the entire system, to a wedge, and to the sphere leads to the following equations:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Combining the last two equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ms\gs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The maximum M value for which there is equilibrium corresponds to the situation in which the tangential constraints force T takes the maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ts_{\text{màx}}=\mu\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Taking into account that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = \frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts=\frac{\Ms_{\text{max}}\gs}{2}=\Ts_{\text{max}}=\mu\Ns=\mu\frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs\Rightarrow\Ms_{\text{max}}=2\ms\frac{\mu}{1-\mu}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Summing the equations for all the particles, we obtain: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}+\Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}=\Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;

=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
By the principle of action and reaction, the sum for all particles of the interaction forces leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\F{\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for the inertia forces, as they are proportional to the transportation and Coriolis acceleration of each particle, their sum for all particles corresponds to the weighted kinematics that defines the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems#D4.2 LMT: application examples|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs$}{ar} = \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps$}{Cor} = -2\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\Ms_\Ps\vel{G}{NGal} = \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext} + \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs} = \Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.4: vibratory displacement====&lt;br /&gt;

|The block of mass m is initially at rest on a support which oscillates relative to the ground according to the velocity graph shown in the figure. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;possibility of sliding between block and support&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The nonsliding condition between block and support (which is a non-Galilean reference since its motion relative to the ground is not uniform) requires:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} + \Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = \vec{0} (\Fcal{Cor}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}= \vec{0})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; perque &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{sup}{T} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The transportation force on the block is strictly horizontal. Therefore, the vertical component of that equation leads to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = mg&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As for the horizontal component, it will contain the interaction force between the block and the support. If the block does not slide on the support, this force is a constraint force, and its value is bounded: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0\leq\mid\Fs_{sup\rightarrow bloc}\mid \leq\mu\Ms\gs = 0,15\Ms\Gs\simeq 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If it slides, it is a friction force with value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, opposite to the sliding velocity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = \frac{0,4\ms/s}{0,4s}=1\ms/s^2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, therefore the drag force is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = -\ms\acc{$\Gs\in$support}{T}=[\leftarrow 0,1(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. That value is within the range of values allowed for the horizontal constraint force between support and block. Therefore, this force will take the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{sup\rightarrow block} = 0,1(\ms/s^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, will counteract the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and there will be no motion between the two elements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is 2&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = -\frac{0,8\ms/s}{0,2s}=-4\frac{\ms}{s^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} =[\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is higher than the maximum value of the horizontal constraint force, it cannot be counteracted. The block will begin to slide, and the horizontal interaction force between the support and the block will be a friction force:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} + \F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms] + [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms] = [\rightarrow 2,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms]\Rightarrow \acc{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At time &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the sliding velocity of the block on to the support is&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\cdot 0,2s\right) = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if the bock reaches the phase in which &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mid\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow G}\mid&amp;lt;\mu\Ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the horizontal force between support and block is still a friction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms])&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; until the block stops sliding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The acceleration of the block relative to the support is:	&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{sup} = \acc{G}{T} - \acc{G}{tr} = \left(\leftarrow 1,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) - \left( \rightarrow 1\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) = \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since it is a uniformly decelerated motion, it is easy to calculate the time instant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_f&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; when the block stops sliding:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup} = 0 = \vel{$\Gs,t_i$}{sup} + \acc{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup}(t_f - t_i)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_i = 0,6s \Rightarrow 0 = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right) + \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)(t_f-0,6s)\Rightarrow t_i = 0,8s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that time instant, the force between support and block becomes a constraint force, and we reach a situation analogous to the initial one. Therefore, the slip will not occur again until &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ts = 1,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The study for the subsequent intervals follows the same steps as that in the interval &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[0,1,4s]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The figure shows the evolution of the kinematics of the block with respect to the support, and of the forces acting on it.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.4	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): general formulation==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dynamics of a rigid body (and therefore, of a multibody system) is never fully solved with the LMT when the rígid body rotates: the LMT only reports on the movement of a point (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), and not on the rotation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Angular Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (AMT) is stated in two different ways in the literature. In this course, a formulation parallel to that of the LMT has been chosen: terms on the left-hand side have to do only with external interactions on the system, while that on the right-hand side is the time derivative of a vector that depends only on the mass geometry of the system and its &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system#|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we have already seen when introducing the concept of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor of a system of forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the moment of the forces, and not the resultant force, relates to the rotation of a rigid body. Therefore, although the AMT is also derived from Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each mass differential of the system, the forces appearing in that equation will have to be transformed into the moment (at a point Q) associated with those forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These two considerations (parallel formulation to the LMT and the need to choose a point Q to calculate the moment of the forces) are the reason why the starting point to obtain the AMT is Newton&amp;#039;s second law formulated in the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Reference Frame that Translates with Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;RTQ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with respect to a Galilean reference frame &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{Q}{RGal}\neq\vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, this reference frame is not Galilean, and therefore the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.7 Particle dynamics in non Galilean reference frames|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inertia transportation forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; must be taken into account in principle (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter. Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each particle of the system and in the RTQ states:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \F{\rightarrow \Ps} +  \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=-\ms_\Ps \acc{P}{tr}=-\ms_\Ps \overline{\mathbf{a}}_\mathrm{RGal}(\Ps \in \mathrm{RTQ})=-\ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{Cor}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If both sides of the equation are multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and summed for all particles (or mass elements) in the system, the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is obtained:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \vec{M}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \dert{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)}{RTQ} \equiv \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where M is the total mass of the System, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs) \equiv \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;angular momentum of the System about point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the system contains continuous elements (for example, a system with N rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ss_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is =1}^{\Ns} \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}^\mathrm{Si}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is=1}^{\Ns} \left( \int_{\mathrm{Si}}\QPvec \times \ds\ms (\Ps) \vel{P}{RTQ} \right )&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Newton&amp;#039;s second law for each element of mass multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\QPvec\times\F{\rightarrow\Ps} + \QPvec\times\Fcal{tr}{RTQ\rightarrow\Ps} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El terme de la dreta es pot reescriure com a:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a point of the RTQ, it can be taken as the origin of a position vector of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in that reference frame. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \Rightarrow\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;=\vel{P}{RTQ}\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taking into account that the mass is constant:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}  = \dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Summation for all &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; elements leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the interaction forces on each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are classified as internal and external, the sum for all the particles in the system on the left-hand side of the first equation becomes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.5	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): particular formulations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT formulation becomes simpler when the point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is fixed to a Galilean reference frame or when it is the center of mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs \in \mathrm{RGal} \Rightarrow \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Qs). &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; In short, we call this version “AMT at a fixed point”, where “fixed” has to be understood as “fixed to a Galilean reference frame”. In this case, we will usually choose the letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to designate point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs=\Gs \Rightarrow \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\overline{0} \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Gs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Gs).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; It should be noted that, although the expression is similar to the fixed point version, the center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; does not have to be fixed to a Galilean reference.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is neither a fixed point in RGal nor coincides with the center of mass, we usually speak of the “moving point” version of the AMT. Although &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is in general moving relative to RGal, the term associated with the inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be zero if &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; moves at a constant speed relative to RGal, or if its acceleration relative to RGal is parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angular momentum is not easy to calculate in general, and it is presented in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Mass distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In problems with planar (2D) kinematics, if the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQi}^\mathrm{Si} (\Gs_\is)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of each rigid body in the system under study is parallel to the angular velocity of the rigid body  (whose direction is orthogonal to the plane of motion), only the component of the AMT perpendicular to that plane is interesting. The problem is then a planar dynamics problem (2D). Planar dynamics can be studied from two LMT components and one AMT component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;AMT at a contact point between two rigid bodies&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A link that appears frequently in mechanical systems is the single-point contact between pairs of rígid bodies (S1 and S2, for example). That constraint can introduce between 1 and 3 constraint unknowns (depending on the surface roughness and the contact kinematics– with or without sliding). When we do not want to calculate these forces, it is tempting to apply the AMT at the contact point J (since the moment of those forces at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is zero). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:TMCaJ-0-eng.png|thumb|right|230px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is very tricky. It is necessary to specify which point J has been chosen (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C5. Cinemàtica plana del sòlid rígid#✏️ Exemple C5-1.8|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example C5-1.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;): is it point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of rigid body S1 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, of rigid body S2 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, or is it the geometric contact point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the one hand, those three points have different kinematics &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_\mathrm{geom}) \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the complementary term associated with the moment of inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\JGvec \times \ms \acc{J}{Gal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is different. On the other hand, if for example the AMT is applied to rigid bdy S1, it is necessary to keep in mind that, although &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; belongs to S1 and the angular momentum can be calculated from the inertia tensor, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; not belong to S1, and the barycentric decomposition is compulsory to calculate this vector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, since the angular momentum has to be differentiated, it has to be calculated in a general configuration (i.e. when &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is not yet the contact point), and only after having done the time derivative can the result be particularized to the configuration in which &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the contact point. As an illustration of all this, the following diagram shows the application of the AMT to a wheel with planar motion sliding on  the ground.&lt;br /&gt;

|The block hangs from an inclined massless bar through an inextensible thread. The bar ends are in contact with two walls fixed to the ground, one smooth and one rough (with a non-zero friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;minimum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value for equilibrium.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Es tracta de &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;calcular el valor mínim de &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; que permet l’equilibri&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces acting on the system (bar+block+thread) are:&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex5-2-neut.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the system is at rest relative to the ground, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the total external force must be zero. Therefore:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Ps=\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms\gs=\Ts_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since motion is about to occur, the tangential constraint force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has its maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Since the above equations do not allow the calculation of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, a third equation is needed, which will come from the AMT. Whether applied at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{RTP}=\mathrm{RTQ}=\mathrm{RTO}=\mathrm{ground}(\Ts)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTP}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Qs)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\otimes \Ns_\Ps4\Ls\sin\beta)+(\odot \ms\gs3\Ls\cos\beta)=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \Ns_\Ps=\frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}} \frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta} \quad \Rightarrow \mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}=\frac{4}{3} \tan \beta. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The blocks hang from two inextensible ropes with one end tied to the periphery of two pulleys with radii r and 2r, of negligible mass and articulated to the ceiling. We want to calculate &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;angular acceleration of the pulleys&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the system (blocks + pulleys) and its motion relative to the ground are &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\gs \approx 10 \ms/\ss^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-1-neut.png|thumb|center|140px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In total, there are three unknowns: the two constraint forces associated with the articulation of the pulleys, and the angular acceleration of the pulleys relative to the ground. The two vector theorems applied to the system (blocks + pulleys) provide three equations. Now, since the unknown to be determined is the acceleration, we can just use the AMT at O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Bold text&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and obtain an equation free of constraint unknowns but including &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 100 \Ns \cdot 2\rs) +(\otimes 50\Ns \cdot \rs)=(\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\Ts (\Os)= \int_\mathrm{left \: esp.} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps)+ \int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps) =\left(\int_\mathrm{left \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ \left(\int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\uparrow \rs\dot{\theta}) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

On the other hand, since the blocks have vertical velocity, only the horizontal component of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block} \times \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; contributes to the vector product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Thus:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad \ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to the system formed by the pulleys and the ropes, the weight of the blocks no longer appears as an external interaction, but instead the tensions of the two ropes appear (which are constraint unknowns).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the system is massless, its angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;

Applying the AMT to each of the blocks provides two more equations:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 10 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(10\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 100\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_1)=(10\ks\gs)(\uparrow 2\rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 5 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(5\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 50\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_2)=(5\ks\gs)(\uparrow \rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations leads to  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first solution is faster (it just calls for one scalar equation) but involves calculating the angular momentum. This second solution is longer (system of three equations) but does not require calculating any angular momentum.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|A vehicle without suspensions moves on a straight road. The mass of the wheels is negligible compared to that of the rest of the elements, and their contact with the ground is considered to be a single-point one. We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;analyse the normal constraint forces ground and wheels&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
This is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the vehicle are the weight and and the ground constraint forces. If the acceleration of the chassis relative to the ground is a given, the application of the AMT leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} = \ms\acc{G}{\epsilon} \Rightarrow \left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\uparrow(\Ns_{\ds\vs}+ \Ns_{\ds\rs})+ (\downarrow\ms\gs) = 0\\&lt;br /&gt;
[\rightarrow(\Ts_{\ds\vs}+ \Ts_{\ds\rs})] = (\rightarrow\ms\as_\epsilon)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\vs}, \Ts_{\ds\vs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\rs}, \Ts_{\ds\rs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are the resultant normal and tangential forces exerted by the ground on the two front wheels and the two rear wheels, respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; yields:   &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec{\Ms}_{ext}(\Gs) = \vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)\Rightarrow(\odot\Ls_{\ds\vs}\Ns_{\ds\vs}) + (\otimes\Ls_{\ds\rs}\Ns_{\ds\rs}) + [\odot\hs(\Ts_{\ds\vs} + \Ts_{\ds\rs})] =0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is permanently zero beacuse the wheels are massless, and the chassis motion relative to the RTG is zero).&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex7-2-eng.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} - \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, \:\:\:\:\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} + \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This result is valid for any value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
:* Static situation (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; the normal force is higher on the wheels whose axle is closer to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
:Accelerated motion (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} + \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; there is a force transfer from front to rear (the rear wheels are loaded and the front wheels are unloaded). If the acceleration is sufficiently high, the front normal force becomes negative, which indicates that contact has been lost and the vehicle rolls over counter-clockwise. Then, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the chassis initially has angular acceleration. As a consequence, the centre of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; acquires vertical acceleration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*Braking (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon &amp;lt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; there is a force transfer from the rear to the front (the rear wheels are unloaded and the front wheels are loaded). As in the previous case, there is a critical value that causes the vehicle to tip over, this time clockwise.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.7 Dynamics of Constraint Auxiliary Elements==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the vector theorems to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Constraint Auxiliary Elements&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (CAE) is simple since the terms on the right (change in linear momentum and change in angular momentum) are zero because the CAE mass is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{CAE} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \mathbf{\overline{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} \quad , \quad  \sum \mathbf{\overline{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\mathrm{qualsevol}  \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{punt}) \approx \overline{0}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the case of a CAE (rígid body S) connecting two rigid bodies S1 and S2 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), these equations allow to prove that the torsor exerted on S1 can be obtained from an analytical characterization equation where the kinematics of the characterization point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (which has to be a point fixed to S1) is assessed from the S2 reference frame:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S2} =0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(When dealing with velocities, it is important to specify which rigid body does &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; belong to. However, this is irrelevant when dealing with moments: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \overline{\Ps_{\mathrm{S}1}\Ps_\mathrm{S}} \times \mathbf{\overline{F}} = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) \equiv \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The vector theorems applied to the CAE imply that the constraint torsors exerted by S1 and S2 at the same point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; must sum up to zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ext}} \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}+\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}=\overline{0} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ext}}(\Ps) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)+\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} =\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \equiv \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps) \equiv \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

On the other hand, those torsores fulfill the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

If all the above equations are combined, we obtain:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \left[ \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) +  \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) \right] +  \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \left[\velang{S1}{S} + \velang{S}{S2}\right] =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.8: longitudinal dynamics of a vehicle ====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex8-1-eng.png|thumb|left|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|Let’s assume that the vehicle of example D4.7 has rear traction. This means that the vehicle&amp;#039;s engine acts between the chassis and the rear wheels, while the front wheels are only subject to constraint interactions (articulation with the chassis and contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the front wheels are treated as CAE, the kinematic analysis of the chassis relative to the ground for the characterization of the constraint through the front wheels leads to a torsor at the wheel centre (which is fixed to the chassis) with only one force component:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-2-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The existence of a horizontal component of force between the rear wheels (necessary to accelerate or brake the vehicle!) is associated with the engine torque. If the vector theorems are applied to the rear wheels, the external interactions to be taken into account are the connection with the ground, the articulation with the chassis and the engine torque:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-3-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{wheels} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} , \sum &lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Cs) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{LMT }: \hspace{1.4cm} \Ns_\mathrm{dr}=\Ns&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} , \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Ts&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AMT } \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{a} \hspace{0.2cm} \Cs: \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}\rs=\Gamma \Rightarrow \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tangential force on the driven wheels is directly proportional to the engine torque applied to them. However, it should be remembered that, as a constraint tangential force, its value is bounded by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{s}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This allows to calculate the maximum acceleration that the vehicle can acquire (as long as the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Ts_\mathrm{dr,max}/\ms \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr} \leq \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On low friction (low &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\ss&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value) terrains, an engine capable of delivering a high maximum torque is useless: what limits acceleration is the value of the friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\es&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{màx}= \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr} /\ms &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On high friction terrain, if the maximum torque is low, it is this that limits acceleration: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left. \as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Gamma_\mathrm{max}/\ms \rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  (if the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D4.8 Barycentric decomposition of the angular momentum==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general formulation presented for the AMT allows a free choice of the Q point of application. The criterion for choosing it is based on what we want to investigate (a constraint force, an equation of motion...). This criterion is discussed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Examples of 2D dynamics|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In some cases, it may be interesting to choose a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; that does not belong to any element of the system. It is then useful to calculate the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; from the angular momentum at the system center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This is known as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;barycentric decomposition&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the angular momentum:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &lt;br /&gt;
where the superscript &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\oplus&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates that the angular momentum is to be calculated as if the system had been reduced to a particle concentrated at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; with mass equal to the total mass of the system (M): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:The definition of the angular momentum of a rigid body is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be written as a sum of two terms through a composition of movements:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;

|The rigid body is made up of two massless bars and four particles (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with mass m attached to the bars endpoints. The rigid body is attached to a support that can move along a guide fixed to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}\equiv\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\GPvec\times\ms\vel{P}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The RTG is fixed to the support, and the velocity of the particles relative to that reference frame is proportional to the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\vel{P}{RTG}|=\Ls\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}\equiv\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\GPvec\times\ms\vel{P}{RTG} = (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (fixed to the ground) can be calculated from &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; through barycentric decomposition:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{O}{}{RTO} = \H{O}{}{E} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{O}{\oplus}{E} = (\otimes 4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + \OGvec\times 4\ms\vel{G}{E} =&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\hspace{1cm} = (\otimes 4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + [(\rightarrow\xs) + (\downarrow\hs)]\times 4\ms(\rightarrow\dot\xs) = (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + (\downarrow\hs)\times 4\ms(\rightarrow\dot\xs) = (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + (\odot 4\ms\hs\dot\xs) = \otimes 4\ms(\Ls^2\omega - \hs\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Vector Theorems&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are a tool for solving the dynamics of mechanical systems, and are obtained from the fundamental law of dynamics (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;) and the principle of action and reaction (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.6 Newton’s third law (action-reaction principle)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s third law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this course, only the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;version of the theorems for the case of constant matter&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; systems is presented. Although this includes systems with fluids, the application examples in this course are essentially multibody systems made up of rigid bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When addressing a problem, it is essential to identify the unknowns contained in the system under study and to analyze whether the vector theorems provide a sufficient number of equations to solve them all (one must know whether the problem is determinate or indeterminate!). The unknowns can be classified into two groups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Unknowns associated with degrees of freedom &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;degrees of freedom&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The DoF of a mechanical system can be &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2._Movement_of_a_mechanical_system#C2.7_Degrees_of_freedom|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;free&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2._Movement_of_a_mechanical_system#C2.7_Degrees_of_freedom|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;actuated&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; (or forced, associated with &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.6_Interactions_through_linear_and_rotatory_actuators|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;actuators&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. In both cases, their initial value (the value when an experiment begins or the system is started) is known. In the case of free DoF, the evolution of those initial values is not known: it is an unknown. The problem is said to be one of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct dynamics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is also the case when dealing with actuated DoF if the action of the associated actuator is known (i.e. when the value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; - in the case of linear actuators – or of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; – in the case of rotational actuators – is known). The problem is also one of direct dynamics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equations governing the evolution of the DoF are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;equations of motion&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. If the DoF are described by time derivatives of coordinates (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\qs}_i &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with i=1,2,3...), their time evolution is the second time derivative of these coordinates (accelerations).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For a system with 2 free DoF described, for example, by (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), these equations would have the following general appearance:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs} = f_{\xs}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta} = f_{\theta}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\xs},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dependency on the second time derivatives (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is always linear, while the dependence on the coordinates and velocities (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) can be of any type. The dynamic parameters are the mass of the elements and those associated with their distribution in space, and the parameters associated with the interactions on the system (spring and damper constants, coefficients of friction, gravitational field constants...); the geometric parameters have to do with the shape of the elements of the system (distances and angles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes, the actions of the actuators (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are not known, while the time evolutions of the actuated DoF are given. Then, the unknowns associated with the actuated DoF are the value of the forces (in the case of linear actuators) and moments (in the case of rotational actuators) necessary to guarantee these given evolutions. The problem is one of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inverse dynamics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the case of the previous example, if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is given, the equations that describe the unknowns of the problem associated with the DoF are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs} = f_{\xs}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = f_{\theta}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\xs},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; would be the motor torque of the rotatory actuator associated with the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Unknowns associated with degrees of freedom &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These unknowns are the values of the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;constraint torsor&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; components. The number of unknowns associated with the constraints depends on the description given of them (&amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.4_Direct_constraint_interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.5_Indirect_constraint_interactions:_Constraint_Auxiliary_Elements_(CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;indirect constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;). When a dynamics problem is indeterminate, the indeterminacy always refers to the constraint torsor components, never to the DoF (free or forced). &lt;br /&gt;

==D4.1 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in Galilean reference frames==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Linear Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (LMT) is obtained by applying Newton&amp;#039;s second law to each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the system. If the chosen reference frame is Galilean:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the interaction resultant force on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

The forces acting on each particle can be classified into two groups: internal (which come from the interaction with other particles in the system) and external (associated with interactions with elements external to the system): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\is\ns\ts\rightarrow\Ps}+\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If these equations are added for all particles, the internal forces between pairs of particles cancel out two by two by the principle of action and reaction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\Ps_j\rightarrow\Ps_i}+\F{\Ps_i\rightarrow\Ps_j}=\vec{0}\Rightarrow\sum_\Ps\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\:\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The term on the left-hand side is the resultant of external forces on the system, and is often written simply as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term on the right-hand side can be rewritten as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\Ms\equiv\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a weighted acceleration, where the weighting is proportional to the mass of each particle. This acceleration is associated with a point called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) of the system, and in this course it is designated by letter G. For any reference frame, then, the kinematics of G are described by the equations (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps},\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_{\Ps}}{\Ms}\vel{P}{R},\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In continuous sets of particles (such as a set of rigid or deformable bodies, or fluids), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps}\right),\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vel{P}{R}\right),\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\acc{P}{R}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, the LMT is written as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\:\acc{G}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This equation is very similar to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the centre of mass G behaves as if it were a particle of mass equal to the total mass of the system, and on which all the forces external to the system acted. Despite the parallelism between the LMT and the particle dynamics equation, there are two fundamental differences:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the mass of the system is not localized at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; might be even located in a massless region of the system, as in the case of a homogeneous ring);&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the external forces are not applied to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in general.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The LMT is so named because it allows us to know the evolution, based on the knowledge of the initial &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; and the external interactions, of the linear momentum of the system (which, in any reference frame R, is defined as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_\Ps\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{R}=\Ms\vel{G}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\acc{G}{RGal}=\dert{\Ms\vel{G}{RGal}}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The location of the center of mass in the systems under study (whether it is a single rigid body or a multi-body system) is briefly introduced in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. For homogeneous bodies with very simple geometry, the position of G can often be deduced from the body symmetries. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In planar problems (with 2D kinematics), only the two components of the LMT contained in the plane of motion are interesting.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.2 LMT: application examples==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.1: calculation of a constraint force ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex1-1-neut.png|thumb|center|180px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The three homogeneous blocks are smooth, and are in contact with each other and with a smooth horizontal ground. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;value of the horizontal constraint force between blocks Q and S&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; when a horizontal force F is applied to the block on the left.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All constraints appearing in this system are multiple-point contacts between smooth surfaces. Therefore, each associated torsor, characterized at a contact point, contains a force and a moment component (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.4 Direct constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example D3.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;). However, in the application of the LMT only the forces are involved, so the moments will not be shown in the following figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order for the constraint force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; to appear in the horizontal component of the LMT, the theorem must be applied to a system where this force is external. For example, to block S: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss})=(3\ms)[\rightarrow \as_\epsilon(\Gs_\Ss)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex1-2-eng.png.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the motion of the three blocks caused by force F is the same, the acceleration can be obtained through the LMT applied to the whole system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs = (6\ms)\as_\epsilon(\Gs)\Rightarrow\as_\epsilon(\Gs)=\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}\Rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}=3\ms\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}=\frac{\Fs}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.2: initial motion of a system ====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex2-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous blocks are initially at rest on a rough floor, and connected by a spring compressed with tension &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0=\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and an inextensible thread. At a certain instant, the thread is cut and the system begins to move.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;acceleration of the center of inertia of the system relative to the ground&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. This acceleration can be obtained from the horizontal component of the LMT applied to the whole system. The spring is internal, and therefore its force does not appear: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}+\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}=(3\ms)\acc{G}{T}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces of the ground on the blocks can be constraint forces (if the blocks do not move, in which case they are unknown), or friction forces (if the blocks move relative to the ground, in which case they are formulable). It may also happen that one block slides and the other does not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The value of a constraint force adapts itself to ensure a restriction. In the case of blocks, it is necessary to investigate whether these forces can reach the value required to prevent the blocks from sliding on the ground, and are bounded by the value of the coefficient of static friction between blocks and ground:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}=0,6\cdot 2\ms\gs=1,2\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{terra}\rightarrow\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow\ms}=0.4\cdot \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the LMT to each block separately, the spring force becomes external. That force (of value mg) can be counteracted by the constraint force in the case of the block of mass 2m (hence, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon(2\ms) = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), but not in the case of the block of mass m:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex2-2-eng.png|thumb|center|450px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Application of the LMT to the block of mass m leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow2\ms}+\F{\text{spring}\rightarrow2\ms}=2\ms\acc{2m}{T} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=(\rightarrow\ms\gs)+(\leftarrow\ms\gs)=0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\acc{m}{T}=(\rightarrow 0,8\gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\frac{2\ms\acc{2m}{T}+\ms\acc{m}{T}}{3\ms}=\frac{0,8}{3}\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.3: limit condition ====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex3-1-neut.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous sphere of mass M is in contact with two identical wedges of mass m, which are on the ground. There is no friction between the sphere and the wedges, but friction coefficient between wedges and ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The system is initially at rest relative to the ground. We want to determine the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;maximum value of M, as a function of m, that allows the system to remain at rest.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If nothing moves, the horizontal interaction forces between ground and wedges are constraint forces, and do not exceed the limit value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;/mu\ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where N is the normal force that the ground exerts on each wedge). The constraint torsor of the ground on the wedges also contains a resultant moment perpendicular to the figure. If we want to study the possibility of the wedges overturning, this moment is relevant. But in this example, the shape of the wedges guarantees that they do not overturn, so we must take into account the forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the LMT to the entire system, to a wedge, and to the sphere leads to the following equations:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex3-3-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ns=\frac{1}{2}(\Ms+2\ms)\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|style=&amp;quot;padding: 20px; text-align:center;&amp;quot;|SYSTEM: left wedge&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\rightarrow \Ts\right)+\left(\leftarrow\frac{\Ns&amp;#039;}{\sqrt{2}}\right)=\vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ts=\frac{\Ns&amp;#039;}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|style=&amp;quot;padding: 20px; text-align:center;&amp;quot;|SYSTEM: sphere&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\downarrow\Ms\gs\right)+\left(\uparrow 2\frac{\Ns&amp;#039;}{\sqrt{2}}\right)=\vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ns&amp;#039;=\frac{\Ms\gs}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Combining the last two equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ms\gs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The maximum M value for which there is equilibrium corresponds to the situation in which the tangential constraints force T takes the maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ts_{\text{màx}}=\mu\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Taking into account that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = \frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts=\frac{\Ms_{\text{max}}\gs}{2}=\Ts_{\text{max}}=\mu\Ns=\mu\frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs\Rightarrow\Ms_{\text{max}}=2\ms\frac{\mu}{1-\mu}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.3 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in non Galilean reference frames==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The LMT in a non-Galilean reference NGal is also obtained from &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; applied to each particle (or each mass differential) of the system in the reference NGal (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

In principle, then, this equation will contain two inertial forces: the transportation force and the Coriolis force (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Summing the equations for all the particles, we obtain: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}+\Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}=\Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
By the principle of action and reaction, the sum for all particles of the interaction forces leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\F{\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for the inertia forces, as they are proportional to the transportation and Coriolis acceleration of each particle, their sum for all particles corresponds to the weighted kinematics that defines the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems#D4.2 LMT: application examples|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs$}{ar} = \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps$}{Cor} = -2\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\Ms_\Ps\vel{G}{NGal} = \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext} + \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs} = \Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.4: vibratory displacement====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex4-1-eng.png|thumb|center|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The block of mass m is initially at rest on a support which oscillates relative to the ground according to the velocity graph shown in the figure. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;possibility of sliding between block and support&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The nonsliding condition between block and support (which is a non-Galilean reference since its motion relative to the ground is not uniform) requires:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} + \Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = \vec{0} (\Fcal{Cor}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}= \vec{0})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; perque &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{sup}{T} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The transportation force on the block is strictly horizontal. Therefore, the vertical component of that equation leads to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = mg&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As for the horizontal component, it will contain the interaction force between the block and the support. If the block does not slide on the support, this force is a constraint force, and its value is bounded: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0\leq\mid\Fs_{sup\rightarrow bloc}\mid \leq\mu\Ms\gs = 0,15\Ms\Gs\simeq 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If it slides, it is a friction force with value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, opposite to the sliding velocity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = \frac{0,4\ms/s}{0,4s}=1\ms/s^2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, therefore the drag force is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = -\ms\acc{$\Gs\in$support}{T}=[\leftarrow 0,1(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. That value is within the range of values allowed for the horizontal constraint force between support and block. Therefore, this force will take the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{sup\rightarrow block} = 0,1(\ms/s^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, will counteract the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and there will be no motion between the two elements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is 2&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = -\frac{0,8\ms/s}{0,2s}=-4\frac{\ms}{s^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} =[\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is higher than the maximum value of the horizontal constraint force, it cannot be counteracted. The block will begin to slide, and the horizontal interaction force between the support and the block will be a friction force:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} + \F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms] + [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms] = [\rightarrow 2,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms]\Rightarrow \acc{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At time &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the sliding velocity of the block on to the support is&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\cdot 0,2s\right) = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if the bock reaches the phase in which &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mid\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow G}\mid&amp;lt;\mu\Ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the horizontal force between support and block is still a friction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms])&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; until the block stops sliding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The acceleration of the block relative to the support is:	&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{sup} = \acc{G}{T} - \acc{G}{tr} = \left(\leftarrow 1,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) - \left( \rightarrow 1\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) = \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since it is a uniformly decelerated motion, it is easy to calculate the time instant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_f&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; when the block stops sliding:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup} = 0 = \vel{$\Gs,t_i$}{sup} + \acc{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup}(t_f - t_i)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_i = 0,6s \Rightarrow 0 = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right) + \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)(t_f-0,6s)\Rightarrow t_i = 0,8s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that time instant, the force between support and block becomes a constraint force, and we reach a situation analogous to the initial one. Therefore, the slip will not occur again until &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ts = 1,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The study for the subsequent intervals follows the same steps as that in the interval &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[0,1,4s]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The figure shows the evolution of the kinematics of the block with respect to the support, and of the forces acting on it.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.4	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): general formulation==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dynamics of a rigid body (and therefore, of a multibody system) is never fully solved with the LMT when the rígid body rotates: the LMT only reports on the movement of a point (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), and not on the rotation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Angular Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (AMT) is stated in two different ways in the literature. In this course, a formulation parallel to that of the LMT has been chosen: terms on the left-hand side have to do only with external interactions on the system, while that on the right-hand side is the time derivative of a vector that depends only on the mass geometry of the system and its &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system#|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we have already seen when introducing the concept of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor of a system of forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the moment of the forces, and not the resultant force, relates to the rotation of a rigid body. Therefore, although the AMT is also derived from Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each mass differential of the system, the forces appearing in that equation will have to be transformed into the moment (at a point Q) associated with those forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These two considerations (parallel formulation to the LMT and the need to choose a point Q to calculate the moment of the forces) are the reason why the starting point to obtain the AMT is Newton&amp;#039;s second law formulated in the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Reference Frame that Translates with Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;RTQ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with respect to a Galilean reference frame &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{Q}{RGal}\neq\vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, this reference frame is not Galilean, and therefore the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.7 Particle dynamics in non Galilean reference frames|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inertia transportation forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; must be taken into account in principle (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-4-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.4:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Inertia forces in the Reference Frame that Translates with point Q (RTQ)&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter. Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each particle of the system and in the RTQ states:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \F{\rightarrow \Ps} +  \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=-\ms_\Ps \acc{P}{tr}=-\ms_\Ps \overline{\mathbf{a}}_\mathrm{RGal}(\Ps \in \mathrm{RTQ})=-\ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{Cor}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If both sides of the equation are multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and summed for all particles (or mass elements) in the system, the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is obtained:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \vec{M}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \dert{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)}{RTQ} \equiv \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where M is the total mass of the System, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs) \equiv \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;angular momentum of the System about point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the system contains continuous elements (for example, a system with N rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ss_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is =1}^{\Ns} \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}^\mathrm{Si}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is=1}^{\Ns} \left( \int_{\mathrm{Si}}\QPvec \times \ds\ms (\Ps) \vel{P}{RTQ} \right )&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Newton&amp;#039;s second law for each element of mass multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\QPvec\times\F{\rightarrow\Ps} + \QPvec\times\Fcal{tr}{RTQ\rightarrow\Ps} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El terme de la dreta es pot reescriure com a:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a point of the RTQ, it can be taken as the origin of a position vector of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in that reference frame. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \Rightarrow\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;=\vel{P}{RTQ}\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taking into account that the mass is constant:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}  = \dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Summation for all &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; elements leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the interaction forces on each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are classified as internal and external, the sum for all the particles in the system on the left-hand side of the first equation becomes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{int}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} - \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}=&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \left( \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \ms_\Ps \QPvec \right) \times \acc{Q}{RGal} =  \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} , &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
since the principle of action and reaction guarantees that the total moment of a pair of action and reaction forces is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} + \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\is \rightarrow \Ps_\js} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \left( \QPvec _\is + \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js}\right)\times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}= \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js} \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.5	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): particular formulations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT formulation becomes simpler when the point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is fixed to a Galilean reference frame or when it is the center of mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs \in \mathrm{RGal} \Rightarrow \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Qs). &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; In short, we call this version “AMT at a fixed point”, where “fixed” has to be understood as “fixed to a Galilean reference frame”. In this case, we will usually choose the letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to designate point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs=\Gs \Rightarrow \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\overline{0} \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Gs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Gs).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; It should be noted that, although the expression is similar to the fixed point version, the center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; does not have to be fixed to a Galilean reference.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is neither a fixed point in RGal nor coincides with the center of mass, we usually speak of the “moving point” version of the AMT. Although &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is in general moving relative to RGal, the term associated with the inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be zero if &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; moves at a constant speed relative to RGal, or if its acceleration relative to RGal is parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The angular momentum is not easy to calculate in general, and it is presented in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Mass distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In problems with planar (2D) kinematics, if the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQi}^\mathrm{Si} (\Gs_\is)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of each rigid body in the system under study is parallel to the angular velocity of the rigid body  (whose direction is orthogonal to the plane of motion), only the component of the AMT perpendicular to that plane is interesting. The problem is then a planar dynamics problem (2D). Planar dynamics can be studied from two LMT components and one AMT component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;AMT at a contact point between two rigid bodies&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A link that appears frequently in mechanical systems is the single-point contact between pairs of rígid bodies (S1 and S2, for example). That constraint can introduce between 1 and 3 constraint unknowns (depending on the surface roughness and the contact kinematics– with or without sliding). When we do not want to calculate these forces, it is tempting to apply the AMT at the contact point J (since the moment of those forces at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is zero). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The application of the AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is very tricky. It is necessary to specify which point J has been chosen (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C5. Cinemàtica plana del sòlid rígid#✏️ Exemple C5-1.8|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example C5-1.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;): is it point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of rigid body S1 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, of rigid body S2 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, or is it the geometric contact point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the one hand, those three points have different kinematics &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_\mathrm{geom}) \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the complementary term associated with the moment of inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\JGvec \times \ms \acc{J}{Gal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is different. On the other hand, if for example the AMT is applied to rigid bdy S1, it is necessary to keep in mind that, although &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; belongs to S1 and the angular momentum can be calculated from the inertia tensor, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; not belong to S1, and the barycentric decomposition is compulsory to calculate this vector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, since the angular momentum has to be differentiated, it has to be calculated in a general configuration (i.e. when &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is not yet the contact point), and only after having done the time derivative can the result be particularized to the configuration in which &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the contact point. As an illustration of all this, the following diagram shows the application of the AMT to a wheel with planar motion sliding on  the ground.&lt;br /&gt;

|The block hangs from an inclined massless bar through an inextensible thread. The bar ends are in contact with two walls fixed to the ground, one smooth and one rough (with a non-zero friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;minimum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value for equilibrium.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El bloc penja d’una barra inclinada de massa negligible per mitjà d’un fil inextensible. Els extrems de la barra estan en contacte amb dues parets fixes a terra, una llisa i una altra rugosa (amb coeficient de fricció no nul &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ). Es tracta de &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;calcular el valor mínim de &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; que permet l’equilibri&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces acting on the system (bar+block+thread) are:&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex5-2-neut.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the system is at rest relative to the ground, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the total external force must be zero. Therefore:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Ps=\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms\gs=\Ts_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since motion is about to occur, the tangential constraint force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has its maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Since the above equations do not allow the calculation of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, a third equation is needed, which will come from the AMT. Whether applied at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{RTP}=\mathrm{RTQ}=\mathrm{RTO}=\mathrm{ground}(\Ts)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTP}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Qs)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\otimes \Ns_\Ps4\Ls\sin\beta)+(\odot \ms\gs3\Ls\cos\beta)=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \Ns_\Ps=\frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}} \frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta} \quad \Rightarrow \mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}=\frac{4}{3} \tan \beta. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The blocks hang from two inextensible ropes with one end tied to the periphery of two pulleys with radii r and 2r, of negligible mass and articulated to the ceiling. We want to calculate &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;angular acceleration of the pulleys&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the system (blocks + pulleys) and its motion relative to the ground are &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\gs \approx 10 \ms/\ss^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-1-neut.png|thumb|center|140px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In total, there are three unknowns: the two constraint forces associated with the articulation of the pulleys, and the angular acceleration of the pulleys relative to the ground. The two vector theorems applied to the system (blocks + pulleys) provide three equations. Now, since the unknown to be determined is the acceleration, we can just use the AMT at O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Bold text&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and obtain an equation free of constraint unknowns but including &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 100 \Ns \cdot 2\rs) +(\otimes 50\Ns \cdot \rs)=(\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\Ts (\Os)= \int_\mathrm{left \: esp.} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps)+ \int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps) =\left(\int_\mathrm{left \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ \left(\int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\uparrow \rs\dot{\theta}) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the definition of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\mathrm{block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)=\ms_\mathrm{block}\OGvec_\mathrm{block} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the other hand, since the blocks have vertical velocity, only the horizontal component of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block} \times \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; contributes to the vector product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Thus:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=10\ks\gs(\leftarrow 2\rs) \times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ 5\ks\gs(\rightarrow \rs) \times (\uparrow \rs \dot{\theta})=40\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})+5\ks\gs(\odot\rs^2\dot{\theta})=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad \ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Alternative solution &amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to the system formed by the pulleys and the ropes, the weight of the blocks no longer appears as an external interaction, but instead the tensions of the two ropes appear (which are constraint unknowns).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the system is massless, its angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: pulleys + ropes&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot\Ts_1 \cdot\rs) + (\otimes \Ts_2 \cdot 2 \rs)=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-4-neut.png|thumb|right|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the AMT to each of the blocks provides two more equations:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 10 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(10\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 100\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_1)=(10\ks\gs)(\uparrow 2\rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 5 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(5\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 50\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_2)=(5\ks\gs)(\uparrow \rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations leads to  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first solution is faster (it just calls for one scalar equation) but involves calculating the angular momentum. This second solution is longer (system of three equations) but does not require calculating any angular momentum.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|A vehicle without suspensions moves on a straight road. The mass of the wheels is negligible compared to that of the rest of the elements, and their contact with the ground is considered to be a single-point one. We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;analyse the normal constraint forces ground and wheels&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
This is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the vehicle are the weight and and the ground constraint forces. If the acceleration of the chassis relative to the ground is a given, the application of the AMT leads to:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} = \ms\acc{G}{\epsilon} \Rightarrow \left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\uparrow(\Ns_{\ds\vs}+ \Ns_{\ds\rs})+ (\downarrow\ms\gs) = 0\\&lt;br /&gt;
[\rightarrow(\Ts_{\ds\vs}+ \Ts_{\ds\rs})] = (\rightarrow\ms\as_\epsilon)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\vs}, \Ts_{\ds\vs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\rs}, \Ts_{\ds\rs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are the resultant normal and tangential forces exerted by the ground on the two front wheels and the two rear wheels, respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; yields:   &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec{\Ms}_{ext}(\Gs) = \vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)\Rightarrow(\odot\Ls_{\ds\vs}\Ns_{\ds\vs}) + (\otimes\Ls_{\ds\rs}\Ns_{\ds\rs}) + [\odot\hs(\Ts_{\ds\vs} + \Ts_{\ds\rs})] =0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is permanently zero beacuse the wheels are massless, and the chassis motion relative to the RTG is zero).&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex7-2-eng.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;

Solving the system of equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} - \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, \:\:\:\:\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} + \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

If the acceleration is sufficiently high, the front normal force becomes negative, which indicates that contact has been lost and the vehicle rolls over counter-clockwise. Then, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the chassis initially has angular acceleration. As a consequence, the centre of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; acquires vertical acceleration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

As in the previous case, there is a critical value that causes the vehicle to tip over, this time clockwise.&lt;br /&gt;

For the case of a CAE (rígid body S) connecting two rigid bodies S1 and S2 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), these equations allow to prove that the torsor exerted on S1 can be obtained from an analytical characterization equation where the kinematics of the characterization point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (which has to be a point fixed to S1) is assessed from the S2 reference frame:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S2} =0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(When dealing with velocities, it is important to specify which rigid body does &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; belong to. However, this is irrelevant when dealing with moments: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \overline{\Ps_{\mathrm{S}1}\Ps_\mathrm{S}} \times \mathbf{\overline{F}} = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) \equiv \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The vector theorems applied to the CAE imply that the constraint torsors exerted by S1 and S2 at the same point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; must sum up to zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ext}} \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}+\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}=\overline{0} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ext}}(\Ps) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)+\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} =\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \equiv \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps) \equiv \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, those torsores fulfill the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S}{S2} =0 \quad , \quad  \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S} =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If all the above equations are combined, we obtain:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \left[ \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) +  \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) \right] +  \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \left[\velang{S1}{S} + \velang{S}{S2}\right] =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.8: longitudinal dynamics of a vehicle ====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex8-1-eng.png|thumb|left|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|Let’s assume that the vehicle of example D4.7 has rear traction. This means that the vehicle&amp;#039;s engine acts between the chassis and the rear wheels, while the front wheels are only subject to constraint interactions (articulation with the chassis and contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the front wheels are treated as CAE, the kinematic analysis of the chassis relative to the ground for the characterization of the constraint through the front wheels leads to a torsor at the wheel centre (which is fixed to the chassis) with only one force component:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-2-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The existence of a horizontal component of force between the rear wheels (necessary to accelerate or brake the vehicle!) is associated with the engine torque. If the vector theorems are applied to the rear wheels, the external interactions to be taken into account are the connection with the ground, the articulation with the chassis and the engine torque:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-3-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{wheels} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} , \sum &lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Cs) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{LMT }: \hspace{1.4cm} \Ns_\mathrm{dr}=\Ns&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} , \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Ts&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AMT } \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{a} \hspace{0.2cm} \Cs: \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}\rs=\Gamma \Rightarrow \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tangential force on the driven wheels is directly proportional to the engine torque applied to them. However, it should be remembered that, as a constraint tangential force, its value is bounded by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{s}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This allows to calculate the maximum acceleration that the vehicle can acquire (as long as the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Ts_\mathrm{dr,max}/\ms \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr} \leq \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On low friction (low &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\ss&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value) terrains, an engine capable of delivering a high maximum torque is useless: what limits acceleration is the value of the friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\es&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{màx}= \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr} /\ms &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On high friction terrain, if the maximum torque is low, it is this that limits acceleration: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left. \as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Gamma_\mathrm{max}/\ms \rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  (if the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D4.8 Barycentric decomposition of the angular momentum==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general formulation presented for the AMT allows a free choice of the Q point of application. The criterion for choosing it is based on what we want to investigate (a constraint force, an equation of motion...). This criterion is discussed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Examples of 2D dynamics|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In some cases, it may be interesting to choose a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; that does not belong to any element of the system. It is then useful to calculate the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; from the angular momentum at the system center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This is known as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;barycentric decomposition&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the angular momentum:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &lt;br /&gt;
where the superscript &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\oplus&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates that the angular momentum is to be calculated as if the system had been reduced to a particle concentrated at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; with mass equal to the total mass of the system (M): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:The definition of the angular momentum of a rigid body is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be written as a sum of two terms through a composition of movements:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AB}:\mathrm{RTQ}\\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{REL}:\mathrm{RTG}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\vel{P}{RTQ} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{P}{ar} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{$\Ps\in\mathbf{RT}\Gs$}{RTQ} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \left[\int_\Ss\QPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)\right]\times\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The definition of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4.

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\int_\Ss\QPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \Ms\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, which coincides with the angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of a particle of mass M located at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ} = \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the first term of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; expression, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be decomposed into two terms:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \int_\Ss\GPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \H{G}{\Ss}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:From the definition of centre of mass: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \QGvec\times\left[\int_\Ss\vel{P}{RTG}\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTG} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Therefore  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The rigid body is made up of two massless bars and four particles (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with mass m attached to the bars endpoints. The rigid body is attached to a support that can move along a guide fixed to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is:&lt;br /&gt;

The RTG is fixed to the support, and the velocity of the particles relative to that reference frame is proportional to the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\vel{P}{RTG}|=\Ls\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;

The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Vector Theorems&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are a tool for solving the dynamics of mechanical systems, and are obtained from the fundamental law of dynamics (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;) and the principle of action and reaction (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.6 Newton’s third law (action-reaction principle)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s third law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this course, only the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;version of the theorems for the case of constant matter&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; systems is presented. Although this includes systems with fluids, the application examples in this course are essentially multibody systems made up of rigid bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When addressing a problem, it is essential to identify the unknowns contained in the system under study and to analyze whether the vector theorems provide a sufficient number of equations to solve them all (one must know whether the problem is determinate or indeterminate!). The unknowns can be classified into two groups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Unknowns associated with degrees of freedom &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;degrees of freedom&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The DoF of a mechanical system can be &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2._Movement_of_a_mechanical_system#C2.7_Degrees_of_freedom|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;free&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2._Movement_of_a_mechanical_system#C2.7_Degrees_of_freedom|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;actuated&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; (or forced, associated with &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.6_Interactions_through_linear_and_rotatory_actuators|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;actuators&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. In both cases, their initial value (the value when an experiment begins or the system is started) is known. In the case of free DoF, the evolution of those initial values is not known: it is an unknown. The problem is said to be one of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct dynamics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is also the case when dealing with actuated DoF if the action of the associated actuator is known (i.e. when the value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; - in the case of linear actuators – or of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; – in the case of rotational actuators – is known). The problem is also one of direct dynamics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The equations governing the evolution of the DoF are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;equations of motion&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. If the DoF are described by time derivatives of coordinates (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\qs}_i &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with i=1,2,3...), their time evolution is the second time derivative of these coordinates (accelerations).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For a system with 2 free DoF described, for example, by (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), these equations would have the following general appearance:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs} = f_{\xs}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta} = f_{\theta}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\xs},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dependency on the second time derivatives (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is always linear, while the dependence on the coordinates and velocities (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) can be of any type. The dynamic parameters are the mass of the elements and those associated with their distribution in space, and the parameters associated with the interactions on the system (spring and damper constants, coefficients of friction, gravitational field constants...); the geometric parameters have to do with the shape of the elements of the system (distances and angles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes, the actions of the actuators (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) are not known, while the time evolutions of the actuated DoF are given. Then, the unknowns associated with the actuated DoF are the value of the forces (in the case of linear actuators) and moments (in the case of rotational actuators) necessary to guarantee these given evolutions. The problem is one of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inverse dynamics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the case of the previous example, if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is given, the equations that describe the unknowns of the problem associated with the DoF are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\xs} = f_{\xs}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma = f_{\theta}(\xs,\theta,\dot{\xs},\dot{\theta},\ddot{\xs},\ddot{\theta},\text{dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; would be the motor torque of the rotatory actuator associated with the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; motion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Unknowns associated with degrees of freedom &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These unknowns are the values of the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;constraint torsor&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; components. The number of unknowns associated with the constraints depends on the description given of them (&amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.4_Direct_constraint_interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;u&amp;gt; &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3._Interactions_between_rigid_bodies#D3.5_Indirect_constraint_interactions:_Constraint_Auxiliary_Elements_(CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;indirect constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;). When a dynamics problem is indeterminate, the indeterminacy always refers to the constraint torsor components, never to the DoF (free or forced). &lt;br /&gt;

==D4.1 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in Galilean reference frames==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Linear Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (LMT) is obtained by applying Newton&amp;#039;s second law to each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the system. If the chosen reference frame is Galilean:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the interaction resultant force on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Forces on a particle of a system with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces acting on each particle can be classified into two groups: internal (which come from the interaction with other particles in the system) and external (associated with interactions with elements external to the system): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\is\ns\ts\rightarrow\Ps}+\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If these equations are added for all particles, the internal forces between pairs of particles cancel out two by two by the principle of action and reaction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\Ps_j\rightarrow\Ps_i}+\F{\Ps_i\rightarrow\Ps_j}=\vec{0}\Rightarrow\sum_\Ps\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\:\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The term on the left-hand side is the resultant of external forces on the system, and is often written simply as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term on the right-hand side can be rewritten as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\Ms\equiv\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a weighted acceleration, where the weighting is proportional to the mass of each particle. This acceleration is associated with a point called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) of the system, and in this course it is designated by letter G. For any reference frame, then, the kinematics of G are described by the equations (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps},\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_{\Ps}}{\Ms}\vel{P}{R},\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-2-eng.png|thumb|center|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Centre of mass (r of inertia) of a ystem with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In continuous sets of particles (such as a set of rigid or deformable bodies, or fluids), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps}\right),\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vel{P}{R}\right),\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\acc{P}{R}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, the LMT is written as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\:\acc{G}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This equation is very similar to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the centre of mass G behaves as if it were a particle of mass equal to the total mass of the system, and on which all the forces external to the system acted. Despite the parallelism between the LMT and the particle dynamics equation, there are two fundamental differences:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the mass of the system is not localized at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; might be even located in a massless region of the system, as in the case of a homogeneous ring);&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the external forces are not applied to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in general.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The LMT is so named because it allows us to know the evolution, based on the knowledge of the initial &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; and the external interactions, of the linear momentum of the system (which, in any reference frame R, is defined as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_\Ps\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{R}=\Ms\vel{G}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\acc{G}{RGal}=\dert{\Ms\vel{G}{RGal}}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The location of the center of mass in the systems under study (whether it is a single rigid body or a multi-body system) is briefly introduced in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. For homogeneous bodies with very simple geometry, the position of G can often be deduced from the body symmetries. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In planar problems (with 2D kinematics), only the two components of the LMT contained in the plane of motion are interesting.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.2 LMT: application examples==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.1: calculation of a constraint force ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The three homogeneous blocks are smooth, and are in contact with each other and with a smooth horizontal ground. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;value of the horizontal constraint force between blocks Q and S&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; when a horizontal force F is applied to the block on the left.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All constraints appearing in this system are multiple-point contacts between smooth surfaces. Therefore, each associated torsor, characterized at a contact point, contains a force and a moment component (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.4 Direct constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example D3.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;). However, in the application of the LMT only the forces are involved, so the moments will not be shown in the following figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order for the constraint force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; to appear in the horizontal component of the LMT, the theorem must be applied to a system where this force is external. For example, to block S: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss})=(3\ms)[\rightarrow \as_\epsilon(\Gs_\Ss)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex1-2-eng.png.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the motion of the three blocks caused by force F is the same, the acceleration can be obtained through the LMT applied to the whole system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs = (6\ms)\as_\epsilon(\Gs)\Rightarrow\as_\epsilon(\Gs)=\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}\Rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}=3\ms\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}=\frac{\Fs}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.2: initial motion of a system ====&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:D4-Ex2-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous blocks are initially at rest on a rough floor, and connected by a spring compressed with tension &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0=\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and an inextensible thread. At a certain instant, the thread is cut and the system begins to move.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;acceleration of the center of inertia of the system relative to the ground&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. This acceleration can be obtained from the horizontal component of the LMT applied to the whole system. The spring is internal, and therefore its force does not appear: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}+\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}=(3\ms)\acc{G}{T}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces of the ground on the blocks can be constraint forces (if the blocks do not move, in which case they are unknown), or friction forces (if the blocks move relative to the ground, in which case they are formulable). It may also happen that one block slides and the other does not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The value of a constraint force adapts itself to ensure a restriction. In the case of blocks, it is necessary to investigate whether these forces can reach the value required to prevent the blocks from sliding on the ground, and are bounded by the value of the coefficient of static friction between blocks and ground:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}=0,6\cdot 2\ms\gs=1,2\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{terra}\rightarrow\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow\ms}=0.4\cdot \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the LMT to each block separately, the spring force becomes external. That force (of value mg) can be counteracted by the constraint force in the case of the block of mass 2m (hence, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon(2\ms) = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), but not in the case of the block of mass m:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex2-2-eng.png|thumb|center|450px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Application of the LMT to the block of mass m leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow2\ms}+\F{\text{spring}\rightarrow2\ms}=2\ms\acc{2m}{T} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=(\rightarrow\ms\gs)+(\leftarrow\ms\gs)=0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\acc{m}{T}=(\rightarrow 0,8\gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\frac{2\ms\acc{2m}{T}+\ms\acc{m}{T}}{3\ms}=\frac{0,8}{3}\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:D4-Ex3-1-neut.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous sphere of mass M is in contact with two identical wedges of mass m, which are on the ground. There is no friction between the sphere and the wedges, but friction coefficient between wedges and ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The system is initially at rest relative to the ground. We want to determine the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;maximum value of M, as a function of m, that allows the system to remain at rest.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If nothing moves, the horizontal interaction forces between ground and wedges are constraint forces, and do not exceed the limit value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;/mu\ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where N is the normal force that the ground exerts on each wedge). The constraint torsor of the ground on the wedges also contains a resultant moment perpendicular to the figure. If we want to study the possibility of the wedges overturning, this moment is relevant. But in this example, the shape of the wedges guarantees that they do not overturn, so we must take into account the forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the LMT to the entire system, to a wedge, and to the sphere leads to the following equations:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ts=\frac{\Ns&amp;#039;}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ns&amp;#039;=\frac{\Ms\gs}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Combining the last two equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ms\gs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The maximum M value for which there is equilibrium corresponds to the situation in which the tangential constraints force T takes the maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ts_{\text{màx}}=\mu\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Taking into account that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = \frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts=\frac{\Ms_{\text{max}}\gs}{2}=\Ts_{\text{max}}=\mu\Ns=\mu\frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs\Rightarrow\Ms_{\text{max}}=2\ms\frac{\mu}{1-\mu}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In principle, then, this equation will contain two inertial forces: the transportation force and the Coriolis force (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Summing the equations for all the particles, we obtain: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}+\Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}=\Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
By the principle of action and reaction, the sum for all particles of the interaction forces leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\F{\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for the inertia forces, as they are proportional to the transportation and Coriolis acceleration of each particle, their sum for all particles corresponds to the weighted kinematics that defines the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems#D4.2 LMT: application examples|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs$}{ar} = \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps$}{Cor} = -2\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\Ms_\Ps\vel{G}{NGal} = \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext} + \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs} = \Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.4: vibratory displacement====&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:D4-Ex4-1-eng.png|thumb|center|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The block of mass m is initially at rest on a support which oscillates relative to the ground according to the velocity graph shown in the figure. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;possibility of sliding between block and support&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The nonsliding condition between block and support (which is a non-Galilean reference since its motion relative to the ground is not uniform) requires:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} + \Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = \vec{0} (\Fcal{Cor}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}= \vec{0})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; perque &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{sup}{T} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The transportation force on the block is strictly horizontal. Therefore, the vertical component of that equation leads to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = mg&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As for the horizontal component, it will contain the interaction force between the block and the support. If the block does not slide on the support, this force is a constraint force, and its value is bounded: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0\leq\mid\Fs_{sup\rightarrow bloc}\mid \leq\mu\Ms\gs = 0,15\Ms\Gs\simeq 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If it slides, it is a friction force with value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, opposite to the sliding velocity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = \frac{0,4\ms/s}{0,4s}=1\ms/s^2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, therefore the drag force is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = -\ms\acc{$\Gs\in$support}{T}=[\leftarrow 0,1(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. That value is within the range of values allowed for the horizontal constraint force between support and block. Therefore, this force will take the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{sup\rightarrow block} = 0,1(\ms/s^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, will counteract the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and there will be no motion between the two elements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is 2&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = -\frac{0,8\ms/s}{0,2s}=-4\frac{\ms}{s^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} =[\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is higher than the maximum value of the horizontal constraint force, it cannot be counteracted. The block will begin to slide, and the horizontal interaction force between the support and the block will be a friction force:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} + \F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms] + [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms] = [\rightarrow 2,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms]\Rightarrow \acc{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At time &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the sliding velocity of the block on to the support is&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\cdot 0,2s\right) = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if the bock reaches the phase in which &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mid\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow G}\mid&amp;lt;\mu\Ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the horizontal force between support and block is still a friction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms])&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; until the block stops sliding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The acceleration of the block relative to the support is:	&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{sup} = \acc{G}{T} - \acc{G}{tr} = \left(\leftarrow 1,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) - \left( \rightarrow 1\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) = \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since it is a uniformly decelerated motion, it is easy to calculate the time instant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_f&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; when the block stops sliding:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup} = 0 = \vel{$\Gs,t_i$}{sup} + \acc{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup}(t_f - t_i)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_i = 0,6s \Rightarrow 0 = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right) + \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)(t_f-0,6s)\Rightarrow t_i = 0,8s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that time instant, the force between support and block becomes a constraint force, and we reach a situation analogous to the initial one. Therefore, the slip will not occur again until &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ts = 1,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The study for the subsequent intervals follows the same steps as that in the interval &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[0,1,4s]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The figure shows the evolution of the kinematics of the block with respect to the support, and of the forces acting on it.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.4	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): general formulation==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dynamics of a rigid body (and therefore, of a multibody system) is never fully solved with the LMT when the rígid body rotates: the LMT only reports on the movement of a point (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), and not on the rotation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Angular Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (AMT) is stated in two different ways in the literature. In this course, a formulation parallel to that of the LMT has been chosen: terms on the left-hand side have to do only with external interactions on the system, while that on the right-hand side is the time derivative of a vector that depends only on the mass geometry of the system and its &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system#|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we have already seen when introducing the concept of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor of a system of forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the moment of the forces, and not the resultant force, relates to the rotation of a rigid body. Therefore, although the AMT is also derived from Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each mass differential of the system, the forces appearing in that equation will have to be transformed into the moment (at a point Q) associated with those forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These two considerations (parallel formulation to the LMT and the need to choose a point Q to calculate the moment of the forces) are the reason why the starting point to obtain the AMT is Newton&amp;#039;s second law formulated in the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Reference Frame that Translates with Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;RTQ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with respect to a Galilean reference frame &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{Q}{RGal}\neq\vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, this reference frame is not Galilean, and therefore the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1.

&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \F{\rightarrow \Ps} +  \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=-\ms_\Ps \acc{P}{tr}=-\ms_\Ps \overline{\mathbf{a}}_\mathrm{RGal}(\Ps \in \mathrm{RTQ})=-\ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{Cor}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If both sides of the equation are multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and summed for all particles (or mass elements) in the system, the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is obtained:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \vec{M}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \dert{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)}{RTQ} \equiv \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where M is the total mass of the System, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs) \equiv \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;angular momentum of the System about point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the system contains continuous elements (for example, a system with N rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ss_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is =1}^{\Ns} \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}^\mathrm{Si}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is=1}^{\Ns} \left( \int_{\mathrm{Si}}\QPvec \times \ds\ms (\Ps) \vel{P}{RTQ} \right )&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Newton&amp;#039;s second law for each element of mass multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\QPvec\times\F{\rightarrow\Ps} + \QPvec\times\Fcal{tr}{RTQ\rightarrow\Ps} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El terme de la dreta es pot reescriure com a:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a point of the RTQ, it can be taken as the origin of a position vector of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in that reference frame. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \Rightarrow\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;=\vel{P}{RTQ}\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taking into account that the mass is constant:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}  = \dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Summation for all &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; elements leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the interaction forces on each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are classified as internal and external, the sum for all the particles in the system on the left-hand side of the first equation becomes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{int}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} - \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}=&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \left( \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \ms_\Ps \QPvec \right) \times \acc{Q}{RGal} =  \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} , &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
since the principle of action and reaction guarantees that the total moment of a pair of action and reaction forces is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} + \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\is \rightarrow \Ps_\js} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \left( \QPvec _\is + \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js}\right)\times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}= \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js} \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.5	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): particular formulations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT formulation becomes simpler when the point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is fixed to a Galilean reference frame or when it is the center of mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs \in \mathrm{RGal} \Rightarrow \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Qs). &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; In short, we call this version “AMT at a fixed point”, where “fixed” has to be understood as “fixed to a Galilean reference frame”. In this case, we will usually choose the letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to designate point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs=\Gs \Rightarrow \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\overline{0} \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Gs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Gs).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; It should be noted that, although the expression is similar to the fixed point version, the center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; does not have to be fixed to a Galilean reference.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is neither a fixed point in RGal nor coincides with the center of mass, we usually speak of the “moving point” version of the AMT. Although &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is in general moving relative to RGal, the term associated with the inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be zero if &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; moves at a constant speed relative to RGal, or if its acceleration relative to RGal is parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angular momentum is not easy to calculate in general, and it is presented in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Mass distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In problems with planar (2D) kinematics, if the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQi}^\mathrm{Si} (\Gs_\is)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of each rigid body in the system under study is parallel to the angular velocity of the rigid body  (whose direction is orthogonal to the plane of motion), only the component of the AMT perpendicular to that plane is interesting. The problem is then a planar dynamics problem (2D). Planar dynamics can be studied from two LMT components and one AMT component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;AMT at a contact point between two rigid bodies&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A link that appears frequently in mechanical systems is the single-point contact between pairs of rígid bodies (S1 and S2, for example). That constraint can introduce between 1 and 3 constraint unknowns (depending on the surface roughness and the contact kinematics– with or without sliding). When we do not want to calculate these forces, it is tempting to apply the AMT at the contact point J (since the moment of those forces at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is zero). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:TMCaJ-0-eng.png|thumb|right|230px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is very tricky. It is necessary to specify which point J has been chosen (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C5. Cinemàtica plana del sòlid rígid#✏️ Exemple C5-1.8|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example C5-1.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;): is it point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of rigid body S1 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, of rigid body S2 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, or is it the geometric contact point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the one hand, those three points have different kinematics &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_\mathrm{geom}) \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the complementary term associated with the moment of inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\JGvec \times \ms \acc{J}{Gal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is different. On the other hand, if for example the AMT is applied to rigid bdy S1, it is necessary to keep in mind that, although &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; belongs to S1 and the angular momentum can be calculated from the inertia tensor, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; not belong to S1, and the barycentric decomposition is compulsory to calculate this vector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, since the angular momentum has to be differentiated, it has to be calculated in a general configuration (i.e. when &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is not yet the contact point), and only after having done the time derivative can the result be particularized to the configuration in which &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the contact point. As an illustration of all this, the following diagram shows the application of the AMT to a wheel with planar motion sliding on  the ground.&lt;br /&gt;

|The block hangs from an inclined massless bar through an inextensible thread. The bar ends are in contact with two walls fixed to the ground, one smooth and one rough (with a non-zero friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;minimum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value for equilibrium.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Es tracta de &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;calcular el valor mínim de &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; que permet l’equilibri&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces acting on the system (bar+block+thread) are:&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex5-2-neut.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the system is at rest relative to the ground, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the total external force must be zero. Therefore:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Ps=\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms\gs=\Ts_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since motion is about to occur, the tangential constraint force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has its maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Since the above equations do not allow the calculation of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, a third equation is needed, which will come from the AMT. Whether applied at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

|The blocks hang from two inextensible ropes with one end tied to the periphery of two pulleys with radii r and 2r, of negligible mass and articulated to the ceiling. We want to calculate &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;angular acceleration of the pulleys&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the system (blocks + pulleys) and its motion relative to the ground are &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\gs \approx 10 \ms/\ss^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In total, there are three unknowns: the two constraint forces associated with the articulation of the pulleys, and the angular acceleration of the pulleys relative to the ground. The two vector theorems applied to the system (blocks + pulleys) provide three equations. Now, since the unknown to be determined is the acceleration, we can just use the AMT at O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Bold text&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and obtain an equation free of constraint unknowns but including &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 100 \Ns \cdot 2\rs) +(\otimes 50\Ns \cdot \rs)=(\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\Ts (\Os)= \int_\mathrm{left \: esp.} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps)+ \int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps) =\left(\int_\mathrm{left \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ \left(\int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\uparrow \rs\dot{\theta}) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the definition of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\mathrm{block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)=\ms_\mathrm{block}\OGvec_\mathrm{block} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the other hand, since the blocks have vertical velocity, only the horizontal component of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block} \times \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; contributes to the vector product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Thus:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=10\ks\gs(\leftarrow 2\rs) \times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ 5\ks\gs(\rightarrow \rs) \times (\uparrow \rs \dot{\theta})=40\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})+5\ks\gs(\odot\rs^2\dot{\theta})=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad \ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-3-neut.png|thumb|right|150px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Alternative solution &amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to the system formed by the pulleys and the ropes, the weight of the blocks no longer appears as an external interaction, but instead the tensions of the two ropes appear (which are constraint unknowns).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the system is massless, its angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: pulleys + ropes&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot\Ts_1 \cdot\rs) + (\otimes \Ts_2 \cdot 2 \rs)=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-4-neut.png|thumb|right|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the AMT to each of the blocks provides two more equations:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 10 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(10\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 100\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_1)=(10\ks\gs)(\uparrow 2\rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 5 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(5\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 50\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_2)=(5\ks\gs)(\uparrow \rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations leads to  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first solution is faster (it just calls for one scalar equation) but involves calculating the angular momentum. This second solution is longer (system of three equations) but does not require calculating any angular momentum.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|A vehicle without suspensions moves on a straight road. The mass of the wheels is negligible compared to that of the rest of the elements, and their contact with the ground is considered to be a single-point one. We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;analyse the normal constraint forces ground and wheels&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
This is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the vehicle are the weight and and the ground constraint forces. If the acceleration of the chassis relative to the ground is a given, the application of the AMT leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} = \ms\acc{G}{\epsilon} \Rightarrow \left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\uparrow(\Ns_{\ds\vs}+ \Ns_{\ds\rs})+ (\downarrow\ms\gs) = 0\\&lt;br /&gt;
[\rightarrow(\Ts_{\ds\vs}+ \Ts_{\ds\rs})] = (\rightarrow\ms\as_\epsilon)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\vs}, \Ts_{\ds\vs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\rs}, \Ts_{\ds\rs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are the resultant normal and tangential forces exerted by the ground on the two front wheels and the two rear wheels, respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; yields:   &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec{\Ms}_{ext}(\Gs) = \vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)\Rightarrow(\odot\Ls_{\ds\vs}\Ns_{\ds\vs}) + (\otimes\Ls_{\ds\rs}\Ns_{\ds\rs}) + [\odot\hs(\Ts_{\ds\vs} + \Ts_{\ds\rs})] =0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is permanently zero beacuse the wheels are massless, and the chassis motion relative to the RTG is zero).&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex7-2-eng.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} - \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, \:\:\:\:\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} + \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This result is valid for any value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
:* Static situation (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; the normal force is higher on the wheels whose axle is closer to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
:Accelerated motion (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} + \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; there is a force transfer from front to rear (the rear wheels are loaded and the front wheels are unloaded). If the acceleration is sufficiently high, the front normal force becomes negative, which indicates that contact has been lost and the vehicle rolls over counter-clockwise. Then, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the chassis initially has angular acceleration. As a consequence, the centre of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; acquires vertical acceleration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*Braking (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon &amp;lt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; there is a force transfer from the rear to the front (the rear wheels are unloaded and the front wheels are loaded). As in the previous case, there is a critical value that causes the vehicle to tip over, this time clockwise.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.7 Dynamics of Constraint Auxiliary Elements==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the vector theorems to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Constraint Auxiliary Elements&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (CAE) is simple since the terms on the right (change in linear momentum and change in angular momentum) are zero because the CAE mass is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{CAE} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \mathbf{\overline{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} \quad , \quad  \sum \mathbf{\overline{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\mathrm{qualsevol}  \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{punt}) \approx \overline{0}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the case of a CAE (rígid body S) connecting two rigid bodies S1 and S2 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), these equations allow to prove that the torsor exerted on S1 can be obtained from an analytical characterization equation where the kinematics of the characterization point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (which has to be a point fixed to S1) is assessed from the S2 reference frame:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S2} =0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(When dealing with velocities, it is important to specify which rigid body does &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; belong to. However, this is irrelevant when dealing with moments: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \overline{\Ps_{\mathrm{S}1}\Ps_\mathrm{S}} \times \mathbf{\overline{F}} = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) \equiv \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The vector theorems applied to the CAE imply that the constraint torsors exerted by S1 and S2 at the same point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; must sum up to zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ext}} \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}+\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}=\overline{0} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ext}}(\Ps) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)+\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} =\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \equiv \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps) \equiv \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

On the other hand, those torsores fulfill the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S}{S2} =0 \quad , \quad  \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S} =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If all the above equations are combined, we obtain:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \left[ \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) +  \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) \right] +  \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \left[\velang{S1}{S} + \velang{S}{S2}\right] =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.8: longitudinal dynamics of a vehicle ====&lt;br /&gt;

{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex8-1-eng.png|thumb|left|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|Let’s assume that the vehicle of example D4.7 has rear traction. This means that the vehicle&amp;#039;s engine acts between the chassis and the rear wheels, while the front wheels are only subject to constraint interactions (articulation with the chassis and contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the front wheels are treated as CAE, the kinematic analysis of the chassis relative to the ground for the characterization of the constraint through the front wheels leads to a torsor at the wheel centre (which is fixed to the chassis) with only one force component:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-2-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The existence of a horizontal component of force between the rear wheels (necessary to accelerate or brake the vehicle!) is associated with the engine torque. If the vector theorems are applied to the rear wheels, the external interactions to be taken into account are the connection with the ground, the articulation with the chassis and the engine torque:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-3-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{wheels} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} , \sum &lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Cs) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{LMT }: \hspace{1.4cm} \Ns_\mathrm{dr}=\Ns&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} , \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Ts&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AMT } \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{a} \hspace{0.2cm} \Cs: \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}\rs=\Gamma \Rightarrow \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tangential force on the driven wheels is directly proportional to the engine torque applied to them. However, it should be remembered that, as a constraint tangential force, its value is bounded by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{s}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This allows to calculate the maximum acceleration that the vehicle can acquire (as long as the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Ts_\mathrm{dr,max}/\ms \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr} \leq \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On low friction (low &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\ss&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value) terrains, an engine capable of delivering a high maximum torque is useless: what limits acceleration is the value of the friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\es&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{màx}= \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr} /\ms &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On high friction terrain, if the maximum torque is low, it is this that limits acceleration: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left. \as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Gamma_\mathrm{max}/\ms \rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  (if the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.8 Barycentric decomposition of the angular momentum==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general formulation presented for the AMT allows a free choice of the Q point of application. The criterion for choosing it is based on what we want to investigate (a constraint force, an equation of motion...). This criterion is discussed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Examples of 2D dynamics|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In some cases, it may be interesting to choose a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; that does not belong to any element of the system. It is then useful to calculate the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; from the angular momentum at the system center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This is known as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;barycentric decomposition&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the angular momentum:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &lt;br /&gt;
where the superscript &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\oplus&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates that the angular momentum is to be calculated as if the system had been reduced to a particle concentrated at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; with mass equal to the total mass of the system (M): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:The definition of the angular momentum of a rigid body is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be written as a sum of two terms through a composition of movements:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AB}:\mathrm{RTQ}\\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{REL}:\mathrm{RTG}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\vel{P}{RTQ} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{P}{ar} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{$\Ps\in\mathbf{RT}\Gs$}{RTQ} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \left[\int_\Ss\QPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)\right]\times\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The definition of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems#D4.1 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in Galilean reference frames|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;centre of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; leads to rewriting the second term as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\int_\Ss\QPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \Ms\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, which coincides with the angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of a particle of mass M located at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ} = \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the first term of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; expression, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be decomposed into two terms:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \int_\Ss\GPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \H{G}{\Ss}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:From the definition of centre of mass: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \QGvec\times\left[\int_\Ss\vel{P}{RTG}\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTG} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Therefore  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:D4-Ex9-1-eng.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The rigid body is made up of two massless bars and four particles (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with mass m attached to the bars endpoints. The rigid body is attached to a support that can move along a guide fixed to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}\equiv\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\GPvec\times\ms\vel{P}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The RTG is fixed to the support, and the velocity of the particles relative to that reference frame is proportional to the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\vel{P}{RTG}|=\Ls\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}\equiv\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\GPvec\times\ms\vel{P}{RTG} = (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (fixed to the ground) can be calculated from &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; through barycentric decomposition:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{O}{}{RTO} = \H{O}{}{T} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{O}{\oplus}{T} = (\otimes 4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + \OGvec\times 4\ms\vel{G}{T} =&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\hspace{1cm} = (\otimes 4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + [(\rightarrow\xs) + (\downarrow\hs)]\times 4\ms(\rightarrow\dot\xs) = (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + (\downarrow\hs)\times 4\ms(\rightarrow\dot\xs) =&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\hspace{1cm}= (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + (\odot 4\ms\hs\dot\xs) = \otimes 4\ms(\Ls^2\omega - \hs\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Vector Theorems&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are a tool for solving the dynamics of mechanical systems, and are obtained from the fundamental law of dynamics (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;) and the principle of action and reaction (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.6 Newton’s third law (action-reaction principle)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s third law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this course, only the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;version of the theorems for the case of constant matter&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; systems is presented. Although this includes systems with fluids, the application examples in this course are essentially multibody systems made up of rigid bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When addressing a problem, it is essential to identify the unknowns contained in the system under study and to analyze whether the vector theorems provide a sufficient number of equations to solve them all (one must know whether the problem is determinate or indeterminate!). The unknowns can be classified into two groups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Time evolution of the free &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2. Movement of a mechanical system#C2.7 Degrees of freedom of a mechanical system|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;degrees of freedom (DoF)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (not controlled by actuators) of the system. The equations that govern these DoF are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;equations of motion&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. If the free DoF are described by time derivatives of coordinates (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with i=1,2,3...), their time evolution is the second time derivatives of these coordinates (accelerations). Their general aspect is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dependence of the equations of motion on the second time derivatives is always linear, while the dependence on the coordinates and velocities can be of any type. The dynamic parameters are the mass of the elements and those associated with their distribution in space, and the parameters associated with the interactions on the system (spring and damper constants, coefficients of friction, gravitational field constants...); the geometric parameters have to do with the shape of the elements of the system (distances and angles).&lt;br /&gt;

As discussed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.6 Interaction through actuators|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D2.6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, in some cases the actuator actions can be considered as data, and then the associated unknowns are the evolutions of the DoF they control.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.1 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in Galilean reference frames==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Linear Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (LMT) is obtained by applying Newton&amp;#039;s second law to each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the system. If the chosen reference frame is Galilean:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the interaction resultant force on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Forces on a particle of a system with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces acting on each particle can be classified into two groups: internal (which come from the interaction with other particles in the system) and external (associated with interactions with elements external to the system): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\is\ns\ts\rightarrow\Ps}+\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If these equations are added for all particles, the internal forces between pairs of particles cancel out two by two by the principle of action and reaction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\Ps_j\rightarrow\Ps_i}+\F{\Ps_i\rightarrow\Ps_j}=\vec{0}\Rightarrow\sum_\Ps\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\:\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The term on the left-hand side is the resultant of external forces on the system, and is often written simply as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term on the right-hand side can be rewritten as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\Ms\equiv\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a weighted acceleration, where the weighting is proportional to the mass of each particle. This acceleration is associated with a point called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) of the system, and in this course it is designated by letter G. For any reference frame, then, the kinematics of G are described by the equations (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps},\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_{\Ps}}{\Ms}\vel{P}{R},\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-2-eng.png|thumb|center|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Centre of mass (r of inertia) of a ystem with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In continuous sets of particles (such as a set of rigid or deformable bodies, or fluids), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps}\right),\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vel{P}{R}\right),\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\acc{P}{R}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, the LMT is written as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\:\acc{G}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This equation is very similar to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the centre of mass G behaves as if it were a particle of mass equal to the total mass of the system, and on which all the forces external to the system acted. Despite the parallelism between the LMT and the particle dynamics equation, there are two fundamental differences:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the mass of the system is not localized at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; might be even located in a massless region of the system, as in the case of a homogeneous ring);&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the external forces are not applied to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in general.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The LMT is so named because it allows us to know the evolution, based on the knowledge of the initial &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; and the external interactions, of the linear momentum of the system (which, in any reference frame R, is defined as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_\Ps\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{R}=\Ms\vel{G}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\acc{G}{RGal}=\dert{\Ms\vel{G}{RGal}}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The location of the center of mass in the systems under study (whether it is a single rigid body or a multi-body system) is briefly introduced in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. For homogeneous bodies with very simple geometry, the position of G can often be deduced from the body symmetries. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In planar problems (with 2D kinematics), only the two components of the LMT contained in the plane of motion are interesting.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.2 LMT: application examples==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.1: calculation of a constraint force ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex1-1-neut.png|thumb|center|180px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The three homogeneous blocks are smooth, and are in contact with each other and with a smooth horizontal ground. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;value of the horizontal constraint force between blocks Q and S&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; when a horizontal force F is applied to the block on the left.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All constraints appearing in this system are multiple-point contacts between smooth surfaces. Therefore, each associated torsor, characterized at a contact point, contains a force and a moment component (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.4 Direct constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example D3.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;). However, in the application of the LMT only the forces are involved, so the moments will not be shown in the following figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order for the constraint force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; to appear in the horizontal component of the LMT, the theorem must be applied to a system where this force is external. For example, to block S: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss})=(3\ms)[\rightarrow \as_\epsilon(\Gs_\Ss)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex1-2-eng.png.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the motion of the three blocks caused by force F is the same, the acceleration can be obtained through the LMT applied to the whole system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs = (6\ms)\as_\epsilon(\Gs)\Rightarrow\as_\epsilon(\Gs)=\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}\Rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}=3\ms\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}=\frac{\Fs}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.2: initial motion of a system ====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex2-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous blocks are initially at rest on a rough floor, and connected by a spring compressed with tension &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0=\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and an inextensible thread. At a certain instant, the thread is cut and the system begins to move.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;acceleration of the center of inertia of the system relative to the ground&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. This acceleration can be obtained from the horizontal component of the LMT applied to the whole system. The spring is internal, and therefore its force does not appear: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}+\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}=(3\ms)\acc{G}{T}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces of the ground on the blocks can be constraint forces (if the blocks do not move, in which case they are unknown), or friction forces (if the blocks move relative to the ground, in which case they are formulable). It may also happen that one block slides and the other does not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The value of a constraint force adapts itself to ensure a restriction. In the case of blocks, it is necessary to investigate whether these forces can reach the value required to prevent the blocks from sliding on the ground, and are bounded by the value of the coefficient of static friction between blocks and ground:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}=0,6\cdot 2\ms\gs=1,2\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{terra}\rightarrow\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow\ms}=0.4\cdot \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the LMT to each block separately, the spring force becomes external. That force (of value mg) can be counteracted by the constraint force in the case of the block of mass 2m (hence, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon(2\ms) = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), but not in the case of the block of mass m:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex2-2-eng.png|thumb|center|450px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Application of the LMT to the block of mass m leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow2\ms}+\F{\text{spring}\rightarrow2\ms}=2\ms\acc{2m}{T} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=(\rightarrow\ms\gs)+(\leftarrow\ms\gs)=0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\acc{m}{T}=(\rightarrow 0,8\gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\frac{2\ms\acc{2m}{T}+\ms\acc{m}{T}}{3\ms}=\frac{0,8}{3}\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.3: limit condition ====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex3-1-neut.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous sphere of mass M is in contact with two identical wedges of mass m, which are on the ground. There is no friction between the sphere and the wedges, but friction coefficient between wedges and ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The system is initially at rest relative to the ground. We want to determine the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;maximum value of M, as a function of m, that allows the system to remain at rest.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If nothing moves, the horizontal interaction forces between ground and wedges are constraint forces, and do not exceed the limit value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;/mu\ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where N is the normal force that the ground exerts on each wedge). The constraint torsor of the ground on the wedges also contains a resultant moment perpendicular to the figure. If we want to study the possibility of the wedges overturning, this moment is relevant. But in this example, the shape of the wedges guarantees that they do not overturn, so we must take into account the forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the LMT to the entire system, to a wedge, and to the sphere leads to the following equations:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex3-3-neut.png|thumb|center|350px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ns=\frac{1}{2}(\Ms+2\ms)\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ts=\frac{\Ns&amp;#039;}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ns&amp;#039;=\frac{\Ms\gs}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Combining the last two equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ms\gs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The maximum M value for which there is equilibrium corresponds to the situation in which the tangential constraints force T takes the maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ts_{\text{màx}}=\mu\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Taking into account that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = \frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts=\frac{\Ms_{\text{max}}\gs}{2}=\Ts_{\text{max}}=\mu\Ns=\mu\frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs\Rightarrow\Ms_{\text{max}}=2\ms\frac{\mu}{1-\mu}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In principle, then, this equation will contain two inertial forces: the transportation force and the Coriolis force (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;

=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
By the principle of action and reaction, the sum for all particles of the interaction forces leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\F{\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for the inertia forces, as they are proportional to the transportation and Coriolis acceleration of each particle, their sum for all particles corresponds to the weighted kinematics that defines the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4.

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs$}{ar} = \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps$}{Cor} = -2\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\Ms_\Ps\vel{G}{NGal} = \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;

|The block of mass m is initially at rest on a support which oscillates relative to the ground according to the velocity graph shown in the figure. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;possibility of sliding between block and support&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The nonsliding condition between block and support (which is a non-Galilean reference since its motion relative to the ground is not uniform) requires:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} + \Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = \vec{0} (\Fcal{Cor}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}= \vec{0})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; perque &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{sup}{T} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The transportation force on the block is strictly horizontal. Therefore, the vertical component of that equation leads to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = mg&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As for the horizontal component, it will contain the interaction force between the block and the support. If the block does not slide on the support, this force is a constraint force, and its value is bounded: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0\leq\mid\Fs_{sup\rightarrow bloc}\mid \leq\mu\Ms\gs = 0,15\Ms\Gs\simeq 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If it slides, it is a friction force with value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, opposite to the sliding velocity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = \frac{0,4\ms/s}{0,4s}=1\ms/s^2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, therefore the drag force is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = -\ms\acc{$\Gs\in$support}{T}=[\leftarrow 0,1(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. That value is within the range of values allowed for the horizontal constraint force between support and block. Therefore, this force will take the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{sup\rightarrow block} = 0,1(\ms/s^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, will counteract the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and there will be no motion between the two elements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is 2&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = -\frac{0,8\ms/s}{0,2s}=-4\frac{\ms}{s^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} =[\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is higher than the maximum value of the horizontal constraint force, it cannot be counteracted. The block will begin to slide, and the horizontal interaction force between the support and the block will be a friction force:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} + \F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms] + [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms] = [\rightarrow 2,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms]\Rightarrow \acc{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At time &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the sliding velocity of the block on to the support is&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\cdot 0,2s\right) = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if the bock reaches the phase in which &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mid\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow G}\mid&amp;lt;\mu\Ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the horizontal force between support and block is still a friction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms])&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; until the block stops sliding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The acceleration of the block relative to the support is:	&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{sup} = \acc{G}{T} - \acc{G}{tr} = \left(\leftarrow 1,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) - \left( \rightarrow 1\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) = \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since it is a uniformly decelerated motion, it is easy to calculate the time instant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_f&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; when the block stops sliding:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup} = 0 = \vel{$\Gs,t_i$}{sup} + \acc{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup}(t_f - t_i)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_i = 0,6s \Rightarrow 0 = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right) + \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)(t_f-0,6s)\Rightarrow t_i = 0,8s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that time instant, the force between support and block becomes a constraint force, and we reach a situation analogous to the initial one. Therefore, the slip will not occur again until &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ts = 1,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The study for the subsequent intervals follows the same steps as that in the interval &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[0,1,4s]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The figure shows the evolution of the kinematics of the block with respect to the support, and of the forces acting on it.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.4	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): general formulation==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dynamics of a rigid body (and therefore, of a multibody system) is never fully solved with the LMT when the rígid body rotates: the LMT only reports on the movement of a point (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), and not on the rotation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Angular Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (AMT) is stated in two different ways in the literature. In this course, a formulation parallel to that of the LMT has been chosen: terms on the left-hand side have to do only with external interactions on the system, while that on the right-hand side is the time derivative of a vector that depends only on the mass geometry of the system and its &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system#|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we have already seen when introducing the concept of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor of a system of forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the moment of the forces, and not the resultant force, relates to the rotation of a rigid body. Therefore, although the AMT is also derived from Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each mass differential of the system, the forces appearing in that equation will have to be transformed into the moment (at a point Q) associated with those forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These two considerations (parallel formulation to the LMT and the need to choose a point Q to calculate the moment of the forces) are the reason why the starting point to obtain the AMT is Newton&amp;#039;s second law formulated in the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Reference Frame that Translates with Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;RTQ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with respect to a Galilean reference frame &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{Q}{RGal}\neq\vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, this reference frame is not Galilean, and therefore the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.7 Particle dynamics in non Galilean reference frames|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inertia transportation forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; must be taken into account in principle (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-4-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.4:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Inertia forces in the Reference Frame that Translates with point Q (RTQ)&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter. Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each particle of the system and in the RTQ states:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \F{\rightarrow \Ps} +  \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=-\ms_\Ps \acc{P}{tr}=-\ms_\Ps \overline{\mathbf{a}}_\mathrm{RGal}(\Ps \in \mathrm{RTQ})=-\ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{Cor}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If both sides of the equation are multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and summed for all particles (or mass elements) in the system, the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is obtained:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \vec{M}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \dert{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)}{RTQ} \equiv \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where M is the total mass of the System, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs) \equiv \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;angular momentum of the System about point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the system contains continuous elements (for example, a system with N rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ss_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is =1}^{\Ns} \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}^\mathrm{Si}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is=1}^{\Ns} \left( \int_{\mathrm{Si}}\QPvec \times \ds\ms (\Ps) \vel{P}{RTQ} \right )&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Newton&amp;#039;s second law for each element of mass multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\QPvec\times\F{\rightarrow\Ps} + \QPvec\times\Fcal{tr}{RTQ\rightarrow\Ps} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El terme de la dreta es pot reescriure com a:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a point of the RTQ, it can be taken as the origin of a position vector of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in that reference frame. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \Rightarrow\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;=\vel{P}{RTQ}\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taking into account that the mass is constant:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}  = \dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Summation for all &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; elements leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the interaction forces on each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are classified as internal and external, the sum for all the particles in the system on the left-hand side of the first equation becomes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{int}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} - \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}=&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \left( \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \ms_\Ps \QPvec \right) \times \acc{Q}{RGal} =  \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} , &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
since the principle of action and reaction guarantees that the total moment of a pair of action and reaction forces is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} + \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\is \rightarrow \Ps_\js} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \left( \QPvec _\is + \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js}\right)\times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}= \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js} \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.5	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): particular formulations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT formulation becomes simpler when the point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is fixed to a Galilean reference frame or when it is the center of mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs \in \mathrm{RGal} \Rightarrow \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Qs). &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; In short, we call this version “AMT at a fixed point”, where “fixed” has to be understood as “fixed to a Galilean reference frame”. In this case, we will usually choose the letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to designate point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs=\Gs \Rightarrow \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\overline{0} \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Gs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Gs).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; It should be noted that, although the expression is similar to the fixed point version, the center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; does not have to be fixed to a Galilean reference.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is neither a fixed point in RGal nor coincides with the center of mass, we usually speak of the “moving point” version of the AMT. Although &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is in general moving relative to RGal, the term associated with the inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be zero if &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; moves at a constant speed relative to RGal, or if its acceleration relative to RGal is parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\quad \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms\acc{Q}{RGal}= \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Qs) \quad&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angular momentum is not easy to calculate in general, and it is presented in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Mass distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In problems with planar (2D) kinematics, if the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQi}^\mathrm{Si} (\Gs_\is)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of each rigid body in the system under study is parallel to the angular velocity of the rigid body  (whose direction is orthogonal to the plane of motion), only the component of the AMT perpendicular to that plane is interesting. The problem is then a planar dynamics problem (2D). Planar dynamics can be studied from two LMT components and one AMT component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;AMT at a contact point between two rigid bodies&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A link that appears frequently in mechanical systems is the single-point contact between pairs of rígid bodies (S1 and S2, for example). That constraint can introduce between 1 and 3 constraint unknowns (depending on the surface roughness and the contact kinematics– with or without sliding). When we do not want to calculate these forces, it is tempting to apply the AMT at the contact point J (since the moment of those forces at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is zero). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:TMCaJ-0-eng.png|thumb|right|230px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is very tricky. It is necessary to specify which point J has been chosen (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C5. Cinemàtica plana del sòlid rígid#✏️ Exemple C5-1.8|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example C5-1.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;): is it point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of rigid body S1 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, of rigid body S2 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, or is it the geometric contact point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the one hand, those three points have different kinematics &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_\mathrm{geom}) \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the complementary term associated with the moment of inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\JGvec \times \ms \acc{J}{Gal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is different. On the other hand, if for example the AMT is applied to rigid bdy S1, it is necessary to keep in mind that, although &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; belongs to S1 and the angular momentum can be calculated from the inertia tensor, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; not belong to S1, and the barycentric decomposition is compulsory to calculate this vector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, since the angular momentum has to be differentiated, it has to be calculated in a general configuration (i.e. when &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is not yet the contact point), and only after having done the time derivative can the result be particularized to the configuration in which &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the contact point. As an illustration of all this, the following diagram shows the application of the AMT to a wheel with planar motion sliding on  the ground.&lt;br /&gt;

|The block hangs from an inclined massless bar through an inextensible thread. The bar ends are in contact with two walls fixed to the ground, one smooth and one rough (with a non-zero friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;minimum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value for equilibrium.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

El bloc penja d’una barra inclinada de massa negligible per mitjà d’un fil inextensible. Els extrems de la barra estan en contacte amb dues parets fixes a terra, una llisa i una altra rugosa (amb coeficient de fricció no nul &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ). Es tracta de &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;calcular el valor mínim de &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; que permet l’equilibri&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces acting on the system (bar+block+thread) are:&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex5-2-neut.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the system is at rest relative to the ground, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the total external force must be zero. Therefore:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Ps=\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms\gs=\Ts_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since motion is about to occur, the tangential constraint force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has its maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Since the above equations do not allow the calculation of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, a third equation is needed, which will come from the AMT. Whether applied at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{RTP}=\mathrm{RTQ}=\mathrm{RTO}=\mathrm{ground}(\Ts)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTP}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Qs)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\otimes \Ns_\Ps4\Ls\sin\beta)+(\odot \ms\gs3\Ls\cos\beta)=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \Ns_\Ps=\frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}} \frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta} \quad \Rightarrow \mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}=\frac{4}{3} \tan \beta. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The blocks hang from two inextensible ropes with one end tied to the periphery of two pulleys with radii r and 2r, of negligible mass and articulated to the ceiling. We want to calculate &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;angular acceleration of the pulleys&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the system (blocks + pulleys) and its motion relative to the ground are &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\gs \approx 10 \ms/\ss^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-1-neut.png|thumb|center|140px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In total, there are three unknowns: the two constraint forces associated with the articulation of the pulleys, and the angular acceleration of the pulleys relative to the ground. The two vector theorems applied to the system (blocks + pulleys) provide three equations. Now, since the unknown to be determined is the acceleration, we can just use the AMT at O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Bold text&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and obtain an equation free of constraint unknowns but including &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 100 \Ns \cdot 2\rs) +(\otimes 50\Ns \cdot \rs)=(\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\Ts (\Os)= \int_\mathrm{left \: esp.} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps)+ \int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps) =\left(\int_\mathrm{left \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ \left(\int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\uparrow \rs\dot{\theta}) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the definition of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\mathrm{block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)=\ms_\mathrm{block}\OGvec_\mathrm{block} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the other hand, since the blocks have vertical velocity, only the horizontal component of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block} \times \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; contributes to the vector product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Thus:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=10\ks\gs(\leftarrow 2\rs) \times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ 5\ks\gs(\rightarrow \rs) \times (\uparrow \rs \dot{\theta})=40\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})+5\ks\gs(\odot\rs^2\dot{\theta})=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad \ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Alternative solution &amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to the system formed by the pulleys and the ropes, the weight of the blocks no longer appears as an external interaction, but instead the tensions of the two ropes appear (which are constraint unknowns).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the system is massless, its angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: pulleys + ropes&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot\Ts_1 \cdot\rs) + (\otimes \Ts_2 \cdot 2 \rs)=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-4-neut.png|thumb|right|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the AMT to each of the blocks provides two more equations:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 10 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(10\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 100\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_1)=(10\ks\gs)(\uparrow 2\rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 5 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(5\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 50\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_2)=(5\ks\gs)(\uparrow \rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations leads to  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first solution is faster (it just calls for one scalar equation) but involves calculating the angular momentum. This second solution is longer (system of three equations) but does not require calculating any angular momentum.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|A vehicle without suspensions moves on a straight road. The mass of the wheels is negligible compared to that of the rest of the elements, and their contact with the ground is considered to be a single-point one. We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;analyse the normal constraint forces ground and wheels&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
This is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the vehicle are the weight and and the ground constraint forces. If the acceleration of the chassis relative to the ground is a given, the application of the AMT leads to:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} = \ms\acc{G}{\epsilon} \Rightarrow \left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\uparrow(\Ns_{\ds\vs}+ \Ns_{\ds\rs})+ (\downarrow\ms\gs) = 0\\&lt;br /&gt;
[\rightarrow(\Ts_{\ds\vs}+ \Ts_{\ds\rs})] = (\rightarrow\ms\as_\epsilon)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\vs}, \Ts_{\ds\vs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\rs}, \Ts_{\ds\rs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are the resultant normal and tangential forces exerted by the ground on the two front wheels and the two rear wheels, respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; yields:   &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec{\Ms}_{ext}(\Gs) = \vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)\Rightarrow(\odot\Ls_{\ds\vs}\Ns_{\ds\vs}) + (\otimes\Ls_{\ds\rs}\Ns_{\ds\rs}) + [\odot\hs(\Ts_{\ds\vs} + \Ts_{\ds\rs})] =0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is permanently zero beacuse the wheels are massless, and the chassis motion relative to the RTG is zero).&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex7-2-eng.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} - \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, \:\:\:\:\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} + \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This result is valid for any value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
:* Static situation (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; the normal force is higher on the wheels whose axle is closer to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

If the acceleration is sufficiently high, the front normal force becomes negative, which indicates that contact has been lost and the vehicle rolls over counter-clockwise. Then, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the chassis initially has angular acceleration. As a consequence, the centre of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; acquires vertical acceleration.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.7 Dynamics of Constraint Auxiliary Elements==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the vector theorems to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Constraint Auxiliary Elements&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (CAE) is simple since the terms on the right (change in linear momentum and change in angular momentum) are zero because the CAE mass is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{CAE} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \mathbf{\overline{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} \quad , \quad  \sum \mathbf{\overline{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\mathrm{qualsevol}  \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{punt}) \approx \overline{0}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the case of a CAE (rígid body S) connecting two rigid bodies S1 and S2 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), these equations allow to prove that the torsor exerted on S1 can be obtained from an analytical characterization equation where the kinematics of the characterization point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (which has to be a point fixed to S1) is assessed from the S2 reference frame:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S2} =0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(When dealing with velocities, it is important to specify which rigid body does &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; belong to. However, this is irrelevant when dealing with moments: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \overline{\Ps_{\mathrm{S}1}\Ps_\mathrm{S}} \times \mathbf{\overline{F}} = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) \equiv \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The vector theorems applied to the CAE imply that the constraint torsors exerted by S1 and S2 at the same point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; must sum up to zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ext}} \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}+\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}=\overline{0} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ext}}(\Ps) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)+\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} =\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \equiv \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps) \equiv \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, those torsores fulfill the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S}{S2} =0 \quad , \quad  \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S} =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If all the above equations are combined, we obtain:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \left[ \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) +  \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) \right] +  \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \left[\velang{S1}{S} + \velang{S}{S2}\right] =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.8: longitudinal dynamics of a vehicle ====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex8-1-eng.png|thumb|left|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|Let’s assume that the vehicle of example D4.7 has rear traction. This means that the vehicle&amp;#039;s engine acts between the chassis and the rear wheels, while the front wheels are only subject to constraint interactions (articulation with the chassis and contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the front wheels are treated as CAE, the kinematic analysis of the chassis relative to the ground for the characterization of the constraint through the front wheels leads to a torsor at the wheel centre (which is fixed to the chassis) with only one force component:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-2-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The existence of a horizontal component of force between the rear wheels (necessary to accelerate or brake the vehicle!) is associated with the engine torque. If the vector theorems are applied to the rear wheels, the external interactions to be taken into account are the connection with the ground, the articulation with the chassis and the engine torque:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-3-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{wheels} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} , \sum &lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Cs) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{LMT }: \hspace{1.4cm} \Ns_\mathrm{dr}=\Ns&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} , \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Ts&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AMT } \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{a} \hspace{0.2cm} \Cs: \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}\rs=\Gamma \Rightarrow \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tangential force on the driven wheels is directly proportional to the engine torque applied to them. However, it should be remembered that, as a constraint tangential force, its value is bounded by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{s}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This allows to calculate the maximum acceleration that the vehicle can acquire (as long as the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Ts_\mathrm{dr,max}/\ms \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr} \leq \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On low friction (low &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\ss&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value) terrains, an engine capable of delivering a high maximum torque is useless: what limits acceleration is the value of the friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\es&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{màx}= \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr} /\ms &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On high friction terrain, if the maximum torque is low, it is this that limits acceleration: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left. \as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Gamma_\mathrm{max}/\ms \rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  (if the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D4.8 Barycentric decomposition of the angular momentum==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general formulation presented for the AMT allows a free choice of the Q point of application. The criterion for choosing it is based on what we want to investigate (a constraint force, an equation of motion...). This criterion is discussed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Examples of 2D dynamics|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In some cases, it may be interesting to choose a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; that does not belong to any element of the system. It is then useful to calculate the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; from the angular momentum at the system center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This is known as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;barycentric decomposition&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the angular momentum:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &lt;br /&gt;
where the superscript &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\oplus&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates that the angular momentum is to be calculated as if the system had been reduced to a particle concentrated at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; with mass equal to the total mass of the system (M): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

:The definition of the angular momentum of a rigid body is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be written as a sum of two terms through a composition of movements:&lt;br /&gt;

\mathrm{AB}:\mathrm{RTQ}\\&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\int_\Ss\QPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \Ms\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, which coincides with the angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of a particle of mass M located at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ} = \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the first term of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; expression, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be decomposed into two terms:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \int_\Ss\GPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \H{G}{\Ss}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:From the definition of centre of mass: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \QGvec\times\left[\int_\Ss\vel{P}{RTG}\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTG} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

|The rigid body is made up of two massless bars and four particles (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with mass m attached to the bars endpoints. The rigid body is attached to a support that can move along a guide fixed to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is:&lt;br /&gt;

The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Vector Theorems&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are a tool for solving the dynamics of mechanical systems, and are obtained from the fundamental law of dynamics (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;) and the principle of action and reaction (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.6 Newton’s third law (action-reaction principle)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s third law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this course, only the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;version of the theorems for the case of constant matter&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; systems is presented. Although this includes systems with fluids, the application examples in this course are essentially multibody systems made up of rigid bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When addressing a problem, it is essential to identify the unknowns contained in the system under study and to analyze whether the vector theorems provide a sufficient number of equations to solve them all (one must know whether the problem is determinate or indeterminate!). The unknowns can be classified into two groups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Time evolution of the free &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C2. Movement of a mechanical system#C2.7 Degrees of freedom of a mechanical system|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;degrees of freedom (DoF)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (not controlled by actuators) of the system. The equations that govern these DoF are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;equations of motion&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. If the free DoF are described by time derivatives of coordinates (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qs_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with i=1,2,3...), their time evolution is the second time derivatives of these coordinates (accelerations). Their general aspect is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\qs}_i = f(\qs_j, \dot{\qs}_j, \ddot{\qs}_j, \text{ dynamic parameters, geometric parameters})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dependence of the equations of motion on the second time derivatives is always linear, while the dependence on the coordinates and velocities can be of any type. The dynamic parameters are the mass of the elements and those associated with their distribution in space, and the parameters associated with the interactions on the system (spring and damper constants, coefficients of friction, gravitational field constants...); the geometric parameters have to do with the shape of the elements of the system (distances and angles).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.6 Interaction through actuators|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Actuator&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;actions&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: these are the forces (in the case of linear actuators) and moments (in the case of rotatory actuators) required to ensure predetermined evolutions of the DoF they control. As discussed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.6 Interaction through actuators|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D2.6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, in some cases the actuator actions can be considered as data, and then the associated unknowns are the evolutions of the DoF they control.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interaccions entre sòlids rígids|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Constraint forces and movements&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the number of unknowns associated with the constraints depends on the description given of them (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.4 Direct constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;indirect constraints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;). When a dynamics problem is indeterminate, the indeterminacy always refers to the constraint torsor components, never to the DoF (free or forced).&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.1 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in Galilean reference frames==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Linear Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (LMT) is obtained by applying Newton&amp;#039;s second law to each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the system. If the chosen reference frame is Galilean:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\rightarrow\Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the interaction resultant force on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Forces on a particle of a system with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces acting on each particle can be classified into two groups: internal (which come from the interaction with other particles in the system) and external (associated with interactions with elements external to the system): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\is\ns\ts\rightarrow\Ps}+\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If these equations are added for all particles, the internal forces between pairs of particles cancel out two by two by the principle of action and reaction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\Ps_j\rightarrow\Ps_i}+\F{\Ps_i\rightarrow\Ps_j}=\vec{0}\Rightarrow\sum_\Ps\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow\Ps}=\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\:\acc{P}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The term on the left-hand side is the resultant of external forces on the system, and is often written simply as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term on the right-hand side can be rewritten as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ms\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\Ms\equiv\sum_\Ps \ms_\Ps\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The term &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{RGal}\right]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a weighted acceleration, where the weighting is proportional to the mass of each particle. This acceleration is associated with a point called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of inertia&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) of the system, and in this course it is designated by letter G. For any reference frame, then, the kinematics of G are described by the equations (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps},\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_{\Ps}}{\Ms}\vel{P}{R},\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_\Ps\frac{\ms_\Ps}{\Ms}\acc{P}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-2-eng.png|thumb|center|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Centre of mass (r of inertia) of a ystem with constant matter&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In continuous sets of particles (such as a set of rigid or deformable bodies, or fluids), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Os_\Rs\Gs}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vec{\Os_\Rs\Ps}\right),\:\:\:\:\vel{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\vel{P}{R}\right),\:\:\:\:\acc{G}{R}=\sum_{i=1}^N\left(\frac{1}{\Ms_\is}\int_{\Ss_\is}\ds\ms(\Ps)\acc{P}{R}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, the LMT is written as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\:\acc{G}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This equation is very similar to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.5 Newton’s second law (fundamental law of dynamics)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Newton&amp;#039;s second law&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: the centre of mass G behaves as if it were a particle of mass equal to the total mass of the system, and on which all the forces external to the system acted. Despite the parallelism between the LMT and the particle dynamics equation, there are two fundamental differences:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the mass of the system is not localized at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; might be even located in a massless region of the system, as in the case of a homogeneous ring);&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*the external forces are not applied to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in general.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The LMT is so named because it allows us to know the evolution, based on the knowledge of the initial &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; and the external interactions, of the linear momentum of the system (which, in any reference frame R, is defined as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_\Ps\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{R}=\Ms\vel{G}{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}=\Ms\acc{G}{RGal}=\dert{\Ms\vel{G}{RGal}}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The location of the center of mass in the systems under study (whether it is a single rigid body or a multi-body system) is briefly introduced in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. For homogeneous bodies with very simple geometry, the position of G can often be deduced from the body symmetries. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In planar problems (with 2D kinematics), only the two components of the LMT contained in the plane of motion are interesting.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.2 LMT: application examples==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.1: calculation of a constraint force ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex1-1-neut.png|thumb|center|180px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The three homogeneous blocks are smooth, and are in contact with each other and with a smooth horizontal ground. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;value of the horizontal constraint force between blocks Q and S&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; when a horizontal force F is applied to the block on the left.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All constraints appearing in this system are multiple-point contacts between smooth surfaces. Therefore, each associated torsor, characterized at a contact point, contains a force and a moment component (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.4 Direct constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example D3.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;). However, in the application of the LMT only the forces are involved, so the moments will not be shown in the following figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order for the constraint force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; to appear in the horizontal component of the LMT, the theorem must be applied to a system where this force is external. For example, to block S: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss})=(3\ms)[\rightarrow \as_\epsilon(\Gs_\Ss)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex1-2-eng.png.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the motion of the three blocks caused by force F is the same, the acceleration can be obtained through the LMT applied to the whole system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs = (6\ms)\as_\epsilon(\Gs)\Rightarrow\as_\epsilon(\Gs)=\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}\Rightarrow\Fs_{\Qs\rightarrow\Ss}=3\ms\frac{\Fs}{6\ms}=\frac{\Fs}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.2: initial motion of a system ====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex2-1-eng.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The homogeneous blocks are initially at rest on a rough floor, and connected by a spring compressed with tension &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_0=\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and an inextensible thread. At a certain instant, the thread is cut and the system begins to move.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;acceleration of the center of inertia of the system relative to the ground&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;. This acceleration can be obtained from the horizontal component of the LMT applied to the whole system. The spring is internal, and therefore its force does not appear: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}+\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}=(3\ms)\acc{G}{T}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forces of the ground on the blocks can be constraint forces (if the blocks do not move, in which case they are unknown), or friction forces (if the blocks move relative to the ground, in which case they are formulable). It may also happen that one block slides and the other does not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The value of a constraint force adapts itself to ensure a restriction. In the case of blocks, it is necessary to investigate whether these forces can reach the value required to prevent the blocks from sliding on the ground, and are bounded by the value of the coefficient of static friction between blocks and ground:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow 2\ms}=0,6\cdot 2\ms\gs=1,2\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow \ms}\mid\leq\mu_\es\Ns_{\text{terra}\rightarrow\ms}?\:\:\:, \mu_\es\Ns_{\text{ground}\rightarrow\ms}=0.4\cdot \ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the LMT to each block separately, the spring force becomes external. That force (of value mg) can be counteracted by the constraint force in the case of the block of mass 2m (hence, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon(2\ms) = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), but not in the case of the block of mass m:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex2-2-eng.png|thumb|center|450px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Application of the LMT to the block of mass m leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=\F{\text{ground}\rightarrow2\ms}+\F{\text{spring}\rightarrow2\ms}=2\ms\acc{2m}{T} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum\F{\es\xs\ts\rightarrow2\ms}=(\rightarrow\ms\gs)+(\leftarrow\ms\gs)=0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right\} \Rightarrow\acc{m}{T}=(\rightarrow 0,8\gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\frac{2\ms\acc{2m}{T}+\ms\acc{m}{T}}{3\ms}=\frac{0,8}{3}\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The homogeneous sphere of mass M is in contact with two identical wedges of mass m, which are on the ground. There is no friction between the sphere and the wedges, but friction coefficient between wedges and ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The system is initially at rest relative to the ground. We want to determine the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;maximum value of M, as a function of m, that allows the system to remain at rest.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If nothing moves, the horizontal interaction forces between ground and wedges are constraint forces, and do not exceed the limit value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;/mu\ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where N is the normal force that the ground exerts on each wedge). The constraint torsor of the ground on the wedges also contains a resultant moment perpendicular to the figure. If we want to study the possibility of the wedges overturning, this moment is relevant. But in this example, the shape of the wedges guarantees that they do not overturn, so we must take into account the forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the LMT to the entire system, to a wedge, and to the sphere leads to the following equations:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ts=\frac{\Ns&amp;#039;}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Rightarrow\Ns&amp;#039;=\frac{\Ms\gs}{\sqrt{2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Combining the last two equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ms\gs/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The maximum M value for which there is equilibrium corresponds to the situation in which the tangential constraints force T takes the maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts = \Ts_{\text{màx}}=\mu\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Taking into account that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = \frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts=\frac{\Ms_{\text{max}}\gs}{2}=\Ts_{\text{max}}=\mu\Ns=\mu\frac{1}{2}(\Ms_{\text{max}}+2\ms)\gs\Rightarrow\Ms_{\text{max}}=2\ms\frac{\mu}{1-\mu}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In principle, then, this equation will contain two inertial forces: the transportation force and the Coriolis force (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;):&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Summing the equations for all the particles, we obtain: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext}+\Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}=\Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where M is the total mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
By the principle of action and reaction, the sum for all particles of the interaction forces leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\F{\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum\F{ext}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for the inertia forces, as they are proportional to the transportation and Coriolis acceleration of each particle, their sum for all particles corresponds to the weighted kinematics that defines the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems#D4.2 LMT: application examples|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs\in$NGal}{RGal} = -\Ms\acc{$\Gs$}{ar} = \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}} \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps} = -\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\acc{$\Ps$}{Cor} = -2\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{NGal} = -2\velang{NGal}{RGal}\times\Ms_\Ps\vel{G}{NGal} = \Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Ps}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hence: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{ext} + \Fcal{tr}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs}+\Fcal{Cor}{NGal\rightarrow\Gs} = \Ms\acc{G}{NGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.4: vibratory displacement====&lt;br /&gt;
------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex4-1-eng.png|thumb|center|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|The block of mass m is initially at rest on a support which oscillates relative to the ground according to the velocity graph shown in the figure. We want to investigate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;possibility of sliding between block and support&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The nonsliding condition between block and support (which is a non-Galilean reference since its motion relative to the ground is not uniform) requires:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} + \Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = \vec{0} (\Fcal{Cor}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}= \vec{0})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; perque &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{sup}{T} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The transportation force on the block is strictly horizontal. Therefore, the vertical component of that equation leads to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N = mg&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As for the horizontal component, it will contain the interaction force between the block and the support. If the block does not slide on the support, this force is a constraint force, and its value is bounded: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0\leq\mid\Fs_{sup\rightarrow bloc}\mid \leq\mu\Ms\gs = 0,15\Ms\Gs\simeq 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If it slides, it is a friction force with value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu\ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, opposite to the sliding velocity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = \frac{0,4\ms/s}{0,4s}=1\ms/s^2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, therefore the drag force is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} = -\ms\acc{$\Gs\in$support}{T}=[\leftarrow 0,1(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. That value is within the range of values allowed for the horizontal constraint force between support and block. Therefore, this force will take the value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\F{sup\rightarrow block} = 0,1(\ms/s^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, will counteract the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and there will be no motion between the two elements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t=0,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the acceleration of the support relative to the ground is 2&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{y} = -\frac{0,8\ms/s}{0,2s}=-4\frac{\ms}{s^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} =[\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. As that value is higher than the maximum value of the horizontal constraint force, it cannot be counteracted. The block will begin to slide, and the horizontal interaction force between the support and the block will be a friction force:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow\Gs} + \F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\rightarrow 4(\ms/s^2)\Ms] + [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms] = [\rightarrow 2,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms]\Rightarrow \acc{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At time &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t = 0,6s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the sliding velocity of the block on to the support is&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{G}{sup} = \left(\rightarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\cdot 0,2s\right) = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if the bock reaches the phase in which &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mid\Fcal{tr}{sup\rightarrow G}\mid&amp;lt;\mu\Ms\gs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the horizontal force between support and block is still a friction force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\F{sup\rightarrow block}^{friction} = [\leftarrow 1,5(\ms/s^2)\Ms])&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; until the block stops sliding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The acceleration of the block relative to the support is:	&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{sup} = \acc{G}{T} - \acc{G}{tr} = \left(\leftarrow 1,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) - \left( \rightarrow 1\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right) = \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since it is a uniformly decelerated motion, it is easy to calculate the time instant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_f&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; when the block stops sliding:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup} = 0 = \vel{$\Gs,t_i$}{sup} + \acc{$\Gs,t_f$}{sup}(t_f - t_i)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t_i = 0,6s \Rightarrow 0 = \left(\rightarrow 0,5\frac{\ms}{s}\right) + \left(\leftarrow 2,5\frac{\ms}{s^2}\right)(t_f-0,6s)\Rightarrow t_i = 0,8s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At that time instant, the force between support and block becomes a constraint force, and we reach a situation analogous to the initial one. Therefore, the slip will not occur again until &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ts = 1,4s&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The study for the subsequent intervals follows the same steps as that in the interval &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[0,1,4s]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The figure shows the evolution of the kinematics of the block with respect to the support, and of the forces acting on it.&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.4	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): general formulation==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The dynamics of a rigid body (and therefore, of a multibody system) is never fully solved with the LMT when the rígid body rotates: the LMT only reports on the movement of a point (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), and not on the rotation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Angular Momentum Theorem&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (AMT) is stated in two different ways in the literature. In this course, a formulation parallel to that of the LMT has been chosen: terms on the left-hand side have to do only with external interactions on the system, while that on the right-hand side is the time derivative of a vector that depends only on the mass geometry of the system and its &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C1. Configuration of a mechanical system#|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mechanical state&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we have already seen when introducing the concept of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor of a system of forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, the moment of the forces, and not the resultant force, relates to the rotation of a rigid body. Therefore, although the AMT is also derived from Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each mass differential of the system, the forces appearing in that equation will have to be transformed into the moment (at a point Q) associated with those forces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These two considerations (parallel formulation to the LMT and the need to choose a point Q to calculate the moment of the forces) are the reason why the starting point to obtain the AMT is Newton&amp;#039;s second law formulated in the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Reference Frame that Translates with Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;RTQ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with respect to a Galilean reference frame &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{Q}{RGal}\neq\vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, this reference frame is not Galilean, and therefore the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.7 Particle dynamics in non Galilean reference frames|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inertia transportation forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; must be taken into account in principle (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider a system of particles with constant matter. Newton&amp;#039;s second law applied to each particle of the system and in the RTQ states:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \F{\rightarrow \Ps} +  \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=-\ms_\Ps \acc{P}{tr}=-\ms_\Ps \overline{\mathbf{a}}_\mathrm{RGal}(\Ps \in \mathrm{RTQ})=-\ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fcal{Cor}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow \Ps}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{RTQ}{RGal}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If both sides of the equation are multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and summed for all particles (or mass elements) in the system, the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is obtained:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \vec{M}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \dert{\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)}{RTQ} \equiv \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where M is the total mass of the System, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs) \equiv \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;angular momentum of the System about point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the system contains continuous elements (for example, a system with N rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ss_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the summation for particles is actually an integral:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is =1}^{\Ns} \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}^\mathrm{Si}(\Qs)= \sum_{\is=1}^{\Ns} \left( \int_{\mathrm{Si}}\QPvec \times \ds\ms (\Ps) \vel{P}{RTQ} \right )&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Newton&amp;#039;s second law for each element of mass multiplied by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\QPvec\times\F{\rightarrow\Ps} + \QPvec\times\Fcal{tr}{RTQ\rightarrow\Ps} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El terme de la dreta es pot reescriure com a:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a point of the RTQ, it can be taken as the origin of a position vector of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in that reference frame. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \Rightarrow\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\QPvec}{RTQ} \times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;=\vel{P}{RTQ}\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ} + \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taking into account that the mass is constant:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\acc{P}{RTQ}  = \dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Summation for all &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; elements leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\dert{\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\dert{\left[\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}\right]}{RTQ} = \dert{\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\QPvec\times\ms_\Ps\vel{P}{RTQ}}{RTQ} = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the interaction forces on each particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are classified as internal and external, the sum for all the particles in the system on the left-hand side of the first equation becomes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{int}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} + \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \Fcal{tr}{\mathrm{RTQ}\rightarrow\Ps} = \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \F{\mathrm{ext}\rightarrow\Ps} - \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \QPvec \times \ms_\Ps \acc{Q}{RGal}=&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;= \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \left( \sum_{\Ps \in \mathrm{syst}} \ms_\Ps \QPvec \right) \times \acc{Q}{RGal} =  \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} , &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
since the principle of action and reaction guarantees that the total moment of a pair of action and reaction forces is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} + \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\is \rightarrow \Ps_\js} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \QPvec _\js \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} = \QPvec_\is \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is} - \left( \QPvec _\is + \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js}\right)\times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}= \overline{\Ps_\is \Ps_\js} \times \F{\Ps_\js \rightarrow \Ps_\is}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) - \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.5	Angular Momentum Theorem (AMT): particular formulations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT formulation becomes simpler when the point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is fixed to a Galilean reference frame or when it is the center of mass of the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs \in \mathrm{RGal} \Rightarrow \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Qs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Qs). &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; In short, we call this version “AMT at a fixed point”, where “fixed” has to be understood as “fixed to a Galilean reference frame”. In this case, we will usually choose the letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to designate point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Qs=\Gs \Rightarrow \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal}=\overline{0} \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} = \overline{0} \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Gs) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTQ} (\Gs).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; It should be noted that, although the expression is similar to the fixed point version, the center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; does not have to be fixed to a Galilean reference.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is neither a fixed point in RGal nor coincides with the center of mass, we usually speak of the “moving point” version of the AMT. Although &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is in general moving relative to RGal, the term associated with the inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left( \QGvec \times \Ms \acc{Q}{RGal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be zero if &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; moves at a constant speed relative to RGal, or if its acceleration relative to RGal is parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angular momentum is not easy to calculate in general, and it is presented in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D5. Mass distribution|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In problems with planar (2D) kinematics, if the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQi}^\mathrm{Si} (\Gs_\is)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of each rigid body in the system under study is parallel to the angular velocity of the rigid body  (whose direction is orthogonal to the plane of motion), only the component of the AMT perpendicular to that plane is interesting. The problem is then a planar dynamics problem (2D). Planar dynamics can be studied from two LMT components and one AMT component.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;AMT at a contact point between two rigid bodies&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A link that appears frequently in mechanical systems is the single-point contact between pairs of rígid bodies (S1 and S2, for example). That constraint can introduce between 1 and 3 constraint unknowns (depending on the surface roughness and the contact kinematics– with or without sliding). When we do not want to calculate these forces, it is tempting to apply the AMT at the contact point J (since the moment of those forces at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is zero). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:TMCaJ-0-eng.png|thumb|right|230px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is very tricky. It is necessary to specify which point J has been chosen (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C5. Cinemàtica plana del sòlid rígid#✏️ Exemple C5-1.8|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;example C5-1.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;): is it point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of rigid body S1 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, of rigid body S2 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, or is it the geometric contact point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the one hand, those three points have different kinematics &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left(\overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_{\mathrm{S}2}) \neq \overline{\as}_\mathrm{Gal}(\Js_\mathrm{geom}) \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the complementary term associated with the moment of inertia forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\JGvec \times \ms \acc{J}{Gal} \right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is different. On the other hand, if for example the AMT is applied to rigid bdy S1, it is necessary to keep in mind that, although &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; belongs to S1 and the angular momentum can be calculated from the inertia tensor, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{S}1})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Js_{\mathrm{geom}})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; not belong to S1, and the barycentric decomposition is compulsory to calculate this vector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, since the angular momentum has to be differentiated, it has to be calculated in a general configuration (i.e. when &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is not yet the contact point), and only after having done the time derivative can the result be particularized to the configuration in which &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the contact point. As an illustration of all this, the following diagram shows the application of the AMT to a wheel with planar motion sliding on  the ground.&lt;br /&gt;

|The block hangs from an inclined massless bar through an inextensible thread. The bar ends are in contact with two walls fixed to the ground, one smooth and one rough (with a non-zero friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). We want to calculate the &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;minimum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value for equilibrium.&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El bloc penja d’una barra inclinada de massa negligible per mitjà d’un fil inextensible. Els extrems de la barra estan en contacte amb dues parets fixes a terra, una llisa i una altra rugosa (amb coeficient de fricció no nul &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ). Es tracta de &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;calcular el valor mínim de &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; que permet l’equilibri&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces acting on the system (bar+block+thread) are:&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex5-2-neut.png|thumb|center|300px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the system is at rest relative to the ground, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\acc{G}{T}=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the total external force must be zero. Therefore:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Ps=\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms\gs=\Ts_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since motion is about to occur, the tangential constraint force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has its maximum possible value: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Since the above equations do not allow the calculation of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\Qs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, a third equation is needed, which will come from the AMT. Whether applied at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{RTP}=\mathrm{RTQ}=\mathrm{RTO}=\mathrm{ground}(\Ts)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTP}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTQ}(\Qs)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Qs)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\otimes \Ns_\Ps4\Ls\sin\beta)+(\odot \ms\gs3\Ls\cos\beta)=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \Ns_\Ps=\frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ts_{\Qs,\mathrm{max}}=\ms\gs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}\Ns_\Qs=\mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}} \frac{3}{4} \frac{\ms\gs}{\tan\beta} \quad \Rightarrow \mu_{\Qs,\mathrm{min}}=\frac{4}{3} \tan \beta. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The blocks hang from two inextensible ropes with one end tied to the periphery of two pulleys with radii r and 2r, of negligible mass and articulated to the ceiling. We want to calculate &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;angular acceleration of the pulleys&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the system (blocks + pulleys) and its motion relative to the ground are &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\gs \approx 10 \ms/\ss^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In total, there are three unknowns: the two constraint forces associated with the articulation of the pulleys, and the angular acceleration of the pulleys relative to the ground. The two vector theorems applied to the system (blocks + pulleys) provide three equations. Now, since the unknown to be determined is the acceleration, we can just use the AMT at O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Bold text&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and obtain an equation free of constraint unknowns but including &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 100 \Ns \cdot 2\rs) +(\otimes 50\Ns \cdot \rs)=(\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\Ts (\Os)= \int_\mathrm{left \: esp.} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps)+ \int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec \times \vel{P}{T} \ds\ms(\Ps) =\left(\int_\mathrm{left \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ \left(\int_\mathrm{right \: block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps) \right)\times (\uparrow \rs\dot{\theta}) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the definition of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;center of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\mathrm{block} \OPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)=\ms_\mathrm{block}\OGvec_\mathrm{block} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. On the other hand, since the blocks have vertical velocity, only the horizontal component of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block} \times \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\Ts(\mathrm{block})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; contributes to the vector product &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\OGvec_\mathrm{block}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Thus:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{H}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=10\ks\gs(\leftarrow 2\rs) \times (\downarrow 2\rs\dot{\theta})+ 5\ks\gs(\rightarrow \rs) \times (\uparrow \rs \dot{\theta})=40\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})+5\ks\gs(\odot\rs^2\dot{\theta})=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\dot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{T}(\Os)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot 150\Ns \cdot \rs)=45\ks\gs(\odot \rs^2\ddot{\theta}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad \ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-3-neut.png|thumb|right|150px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Alternative solution &amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we apply the AMT at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to the system formed by the pulleys and the ropes, the weight of the blocks no longer appears as an external interaction, but instead the tensions of the two ropes appear (which are constraint unknowns).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the system is massless, its angular momentum is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: pulleys + ropes&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os) = \dot{\overline{\mathbf{H}}}_\mathrm{RTO}(\Os)=\overline{0} \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\odot\Ts_1 \cdot\rs) + (\otimes \Ts_2 \cdot 2 \rs)=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex6-4-neut.png|thumb|right|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applying the AMT to each of the blocks provides two more equations:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 10 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(10\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 100\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_1)=(10\ks\gs)(\uparrow 2\rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SYST: 5 kg block&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext}(\Os)=(5\ks\gs)\overline{\mathbf{a}}_\Ts(\mathrm{bloc}) \quad \Rightarrow \quad (\downarrow 50\Ns)+(\uparrow \Ts_2)=(5\ks\gs)(\uparrow \rs \ddot{\theta})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations leads to  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ddot{\theta}=\frac{10}{3\rs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first solution is faster (it just calls for one scalar equation) but involves calculating the angular momentum. This second solution is longer (system of three equations) but does not require calculating any angular momentum.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|A vehicle without suspensions moves on a straight road. The mass of the wheels is negligible compared to that of the rest of the elements, and their contact with the ground is considered to be a single-point one. We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;analyse the normal constraint forces ground and wheels&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
This is a 2D dynamics problem. The external forces on the vehicle are the weight and and the ground constraint forces. If the acceleration of the chassis relative to the ground is a given, the application of the AMT leads to:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\F{\text{ext}} = \ms\acc{G}{\epsilon} \Rightarrow \left\{\begin{aligned}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
\uparrow(\Ns_{\ds\vs}+ \Ns_{\ds\rs})+ (\downarrow\ms\gs) = 0\\&lt;br /&gt;
[\rightarrow(\Ts_{\ds\vs}+ \Ts_{\ds\rs})] = (\rightarrow\ms\as_\epsilon)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{aligned}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\vs}, \Ts_{\ds\vs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\Ns_{\ds\rs}, \Ts_{\ds\rs})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are the resultant normal and tangential forces exerted by the ground on the two front wheels and the two rear wheels, respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AMT at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; yields:   &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum\vec{\Ms}_{ext}(\Gs) = \vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)\Rightarrow(\odot\Ls_{\ds\vs}\Ns_{\ds\vs}) + (\otimes\Ls_{\ds\rs}\Ns_{\ds\rs}) + [\odot\hs(\Ts_{\ds\vs} + \Ts_{\ds\rs})] =0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{H}_{RTG}(\Gs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is permanently zero beacuse the wheels are massless, and the chassis motion relative to the RTG is zero).&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex7-2-eng.png|thumb|center|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solving the system of equations: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} - \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, \:\:\:\:\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}} + \frac{\ms\as_\epsilon\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs} + \Ls_{\ds\rs}}, &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This result is valid for any value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
:* Static situation (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;):  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\rs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} = \frac{\ms\gs\Ls_{\ds\vs}}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; the normal force is higher on the wheels whose axle is closer to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
:Accelerated motion (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} + \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; there is a force transfer from front to rear (the rear wheels are loaded and the front wheels are unloaded). If the acceleration is sufficiently high, the front normal force becomes negative, which indicates that contact has been lost and the vehicle rolls over counter-clockwise. Then, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the chassis initially has angular acceleration. As a consequence, the centre of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; acquires vertical acceleration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*Braking (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\as_\epsilon &amp;lt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\vs} = \Ns_{\ds\vs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\ds\rs} = \Ns_{\ds\rs}^{\es\ss\ts} - \frac{\ms|\as_\epsilon|\hs}{\Ls_{\ds\vs}+ \Ls_{\ds\rs}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; there is a force transfer from the rear to the front (the rear wheels are unloaded and the front wheels are loaded). As in the previous case, there is a critical value that causes the vehicle to tip over, this time clockwise.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.7 Dynamics of Constraint Auxiliary Elements==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The application of the vector theorems to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Constraint Auxiliary Elements&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (CAE) is simple since the terms on the right (change in linear momentum and change in angular momentum) are zero because the CAE mass is zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{CAE} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \mathbf{\overline{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} \quad , \quad  \sum \mathbf{\overline{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\mathrm{qualsevol}  \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{punt}) \approx \overline{0}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the case of a CAE (rígid body S) connecting two rigid bodies S1 and S2 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D4.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), these equations allow to prove that the torsor exerted on S1 can be obtained from an analytical characterization equation where the kinematics of the characterization point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (which has to be a point fixed to S1) is assessed from the S2 reference frame:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S2} =0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(When dealing with velocities, it is important to specify which rigid body does &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; belong to. However, this is irrelevant when dealing with moments: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \overline{\Ps_{\mathrm{S}1}\Ps_\mathrm{S}} \times \mathbf{\overline{F}} = \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) \equiv \mathbf{\overline{M}} (\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The vector theorems applied to the CAE imply that the constraint torsors exerted by S1 and S2 at the same point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; must sum up to zero:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ext}} \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}+\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}=\overline{0} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\sum \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ext}}(\Ps) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 1 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)+\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{0}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} =\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \equiv \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}}(\Ps)=\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps) \equiv \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S} 2 \rightarrow(\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S} 1}(\Ps)&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, those torsores fulfill the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.4 Direct constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; equation of analytical characterization&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S}{S2} =0 \quad , \quad  \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) + \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \velang{S1}{S} =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If all the above equations are combined, we obtain:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathbf{\overline{F}}_{\mathrm{S}2 \rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} \cdot \left[ \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}2} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}) +  \mathbf{\overline{v}}_{\mathrm{S}} (\Ps \in \mathrm{S}1) \right] +  \mathbf{\overline{M}}_{\mathrm{S}2\rightarrow (\mathrm{S}) \rightarrow \mathrm{S}1} (\Ps) \cdot \left[\velang{S1}{S} + \velang{S}{S2}\right] =0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====✏️ EXAMPLE D4.8: longitudinal dynamics of a vehicle ====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{|&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:D4-Ex8-1-eng.png|thumb|left|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
|Let’s assume that the vehicle of example D4.7 has rear traction. This means that the vehicle&amp;#039;s engine acts between the chassis and the rear wheels, while the front wheels are only subject to constraint interactions (articulation with the chassis and contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the front wheels are treated as CAE, the kinematic analysis of the chassis relative to the ground for the characterization of the constraint through the front wheels leads to a torsor at the wheel centre (which is fixed to the chassis) with only one force component:&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-2-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The existence of a horizontal component of force between the rear wheels (necessary to accelerate or brake the vehicle!) is associated with the engine torque. If the vector theorems are applied to the rear wheels, the external interactions to be taken into account are the connection with the ground, the articulation with the chassis and the engine torque:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D4-Ex8-3-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ms_\mathrm{wheels} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \sum \overline{\mathbf{F}}_\mathrm{ext} \approx \overline{0} , \sum &lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_\mathrm{ext} (\Cs) \approx \overline{0} \Rightarrow &lt;br /&gt;
\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{LMT }: \hspace{1.4cm} \Ns_\mathrm{dr}=\Ns&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} , \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Ts&amp;#039;_\mathrm{dr} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AMT } \hspace{0.2cm} \mathrm{a} \hspace{0.2cm} \Cs: \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}\rs=\Gamma \Rightarrow \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tangential force on the driven wheels is directly proportional to the engine torque applied to them. However, it should be remembered that, as a constraint tangential force, its value is bounded by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\mathrm{s}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This allows to calculate the maximum acceleration that the vehicle can acquire (as long as the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground): &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Ts_\mathrm{dr,max}/\ms \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr}=\Gamma / \rs \quad , \quad \Ts_\mathrm{dr} \leq \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On low friction (low &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\ss&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; value) terrains, an engine capable of delivering a high maximum torque is useless: what limits acceleration is the value of the friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\es&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \left.\as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{màx}= \mu_\mathrm{e}\Ns_\mathrm{dr} /\ms &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On high friction terrain, if the maximum torque is low, it is this that limits acceleration: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left. \as_\epsilon (\mathrm{vehicle})\right]_\mathrm{max}= \Gamma_\mathrm{max}/\ms \rs&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  (if the front wheel does not lose contact with the ground).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D4.8 Barycentric decomposition of the angular momentum==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general formulation presented for the AMT allows a free choice of the Q point of application. The criterion for choosing it is based on what we want to investigate (a constraint force, an equation of motion...). This criterion is discussed in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D6. Examples of 2D dynamics|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In some cases, it may be interesting to choose a point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; that does not belong to any element of the system. It is then useful to calculate the angular momentum &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; from the angular momentum at the system center of mass &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. This is known as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;barycentric decomposition&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the angular momentum:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &lt;br /&gt;
where the superscript &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\oplus&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates that the angular momentum is to be calculated as if the system had been reduced to a particle concentrated at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; with mass equal to the total mass of the system (M): &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=====💭 Proof ➕=====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:The definition of the angular momentum of a rigid body is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be written as a sum of two terms through a composition of movements:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left.\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{AB}:\mathrm{RTQ}\\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{REL}:\mathrm{RTG}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \Rightarrow\vel{P}{RTQ} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{P}{ar} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{$\Ps\in\mathbf{RT}\Gs$}{RTQ} = \vel{P}{RTG} + \vel{G}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ} = \int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \left[\int_\Ss\QPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)\right]\times\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The definition of &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D4. Vector theorems#D4.1 Linear Momentum Theorem (LMT) in Galilean reference frames|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;centre of mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; leads to rewriting the second term as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[\int_\Ss\QPvec\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \Ms\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ} = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{P}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, which coincides with the angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of a particle of mass M located at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTQ} = \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the first term of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{\Ss}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; expression, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\QPvec&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be decomposed into two terms:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \int_\Ss\GPvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) + \H{G}{\Ss}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:From the definition of centre of mass: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_\Ss\QGvec\times\vel{P}{RTQ}\ds\ms(\Ps) = \QGvec\times\left[\int_\Ss\vel{P}{RTG}\ds\ms(\Ps)\right] = \QGvec\times\Ms\vel{G}{RTG} = \vec{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Therefore  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{Q}{}{RTQ} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{Q}{\oplus}{RTQ}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|The rigid body is made up of two massless bars and four particles (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) with mass m attached to the bars endpoints. The rigid body is attached to a support that can move along a guide fixed to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}\equiv\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\GPvec\times\ms\vel{P}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The RTG is fixed to the support, and the velocity of the particles relative to that reference frame is proportional to the rotation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\vel{P}{RTG}|=\Ls\omega&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Hence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}\equiv\sum_{\Ps\in\text{syst}}\GPvec\times\ms\vel{P}{RTG} = (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
:The angular momentum at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (fixed to the ground) can be calculated from &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{G}{}{RTG}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; through barycentric decomposition:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\H{O}{}{RTO} = \H{O}{}{T} = \H{G}{}{RTG} + \H{O}{\oplus}{T} = (\otimes 4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + \OGvec\times 4\ms\vel{G}{T} =&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\hspace{1cm} = (\otimes 4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + [(\rightarrow\xs) + (\downarrow\hs)]\times 4\ms(\rightarrow\dot\xs) = (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + (\downarrow\hs)\times 4\ms(\rightarrow\dot\xs) =&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\hspace{1cm}= (\otimes4\ms\Ls^2\omega) + (\odot 4\ms\hs\dot\xs) = \otimes 4\ms(\Ls^2\omega - \hs\dot\xs)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Interaction forces between particles|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, interactions between pairs of particles &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are described by a single force with direction &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\Ps \Qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. When the interaction is between pairs of rigid bodies (which can be considered as two sets of infinite particles), the particle-by-particle description would lead to a system of infinite forces. In this case, we must move on to a compact description of this system of forces that nevertheless retains the information necessary to study the dynamics of rigid bodies: the system of forces is replaced by a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;resultant torsor&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This unit introduces the concept of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor associated with a system of forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and then applies it to the various interactions between solids (at a distance, in contact, and through intermediate elements).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-----------&lt;br /&gt;
-----------&lt;br /&gt;
==D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces==&lt;br /&gt;
The reduction of a system of forces on a rigid body to a torsor is mandatory when the number of forces is very high (infinite). When it is a system of just a few forces, it is usually optional.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An effective mathematical operation to reduce the number of forces on a rigid body S is addition: however high the number of forces, the sum leads to a single &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;resultant force&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. However, this drastic reduction implies a loss of essential information in many cases. As long as there is no interest in studying the deformation of objects (i.e., when only the dynamics of rigid bodies is studied), this is solved by adding a second vector to the compact description of the system: the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;resultant moment&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torque&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;about a point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The set of these two vectors (resultant force and resultant moment) is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor of the system of forces at point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-1-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Torsor associated with a system of forces on a rigid body.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By way of an example, consider the case of a rigid bar initially at rest undergoing a system of forces with zero resultant force. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; shows three different situations corresponding to this situation: (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) free from forces, (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) forces parallel to the bar, (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) forces perpendicular to the bar. In the first two cases (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a, b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), the system of forces does not modify the state of rest. In the third case (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), the forces provoke a clockwise rotation of the bar. The resultant torsor at any point allows us to distinguish between (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) and (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a, b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-2-eng.png|thumb|center|500px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The resultant force never depends on the point where the torsor is calculated. However, the resultant moment generally does depend on that point (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.2 Gravitational attraction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The calculation of the resultant gravitational torsor on a rigid body &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; due to a rígid body &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not simple. The resultant gravitational force on a mass differential dm(&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{Q}} \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is derived from the forces (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Qs \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ) that each mass differential exerts on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The resultant torsor on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is obtained from all these forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Qs \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; on all mass differentials of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{F}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{Q}} \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the resultant force of all the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{F}_{\Qs \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
When it comes to the Earth gravitational attraction (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{Q} = \mathrm{Earth}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) on a rigid body of small dimensions compared to those of the Earth and close to the Earth&amp;#039;s surface, we usually apply the uniform field approximation: the forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{Q}} \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are practically parallel to each other and their value is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{F}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{Q}} \rightarrow \Ps} = \mathrm{gdm}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with g constant and equal to the gravitational field at the Earth&amp;#039;s surface: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{g}=\mathrm{G}_0 \frac{\mathrm{M}_\Ts}{\Rs_\Ts^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{G}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D2.

In this case, it can be shown that there exists a point in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; where the gravitational torsor is a resultant force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{T}} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{P}}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with value mg (where m is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; mass) pointing towards the centre of the Earth, and a zero gravitational resultant moment. That point is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;gravity centre&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the rigid body, and will be represented by letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.3 Interaction through linear and torsion springs and dampers==&lt;br /&gt;
===Linear springs and dampers===&lt;br /&gt;
When a linear spring or a linear damper connects two points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of two different rigid bodies, we have to guarantee that the connection is made in such a way that the force transmitted between the points has the direction of the element, and that no moment (or torque) is transmitted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In some cases, this can be achieved by inserting the element between two lengths of inextensible thread (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.7a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). Then, the force between points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; can only be an attraction (due to the unilateral nature of the thread action).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In other cases, it is necessary to use &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C2. Movement of a mechanical system#C2.8 Usual constraints in mechanical systems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;revolute joints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (if it is a planar problem, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.7b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) or &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C2.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.1: repulsion force of a linear spring and a linear damper with linear behaviour====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-1-1-neut.png|thumb|left|175px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
:The spring, which has linear behaviour, acts between the support fixed to the ground and a vertical axis that is in contact with the bar. For &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the system is in equilibrium, and the force exerted by the spring between its endpoints is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Without the spring, the bar, which is hinged to the support at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, would fall (clockwise rotation). If there is equilibrium for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the spring must exert a repulsive force between its endpoints in that configuration. Therefore, the logical thing to do is to formulate the spring force for a general configuration as a repulsive force:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{rep}}^{\mathrm{spring}}= \mathrm{F}_0 - \mathrm{k}\Delta\rho=\mathrm{F}_0-\mathrm{k}[\rho(\theta) - \rho(\theta=0)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The length increase &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta \rho &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the spring from equilibrium configuration is proportional to the tangent of the angle: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{tan}\theta=\Delta\rho/\mathrm{L}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{rep}}^{\mathrm{rping}}=\mathrm{F}_0-\mathrm{kL}\mathrm{tan}\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The damper repulsion force can be obtained from the length increase through a time derivative:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho=\mathrm{Ltan}\theta \Rightarrow \dot{\rho} = \frac{\mathrm{L}\dot{\theta}}{\mathrm{cos}^2\theta} \Rightarrow \mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{rep}}^{\mathrm{damper}}=\mathrm{c}\dot{\rho}=-\mathrm{c} \frac{\mathrm{L}\dot{\theta}}{\mathrm{cos}^2\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.2: attraction force of a linear spring and a linear damper with linear behaviour====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-2-1-eng.png|thumb|left|180px|link=]] &lt;br /&gt;
:The spring, with linear behaviour, has one endpoint fixed to the chassis of the vehicle, and the other one to an inextensible thread that wounds on a roller of radius r. That roller is fixed to the wheel of radius 2r, which does not slide on the ground. For &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the spring is stretched and exerts a force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; between its endpoints.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-2-2-eng.png|thumb|right|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
:The x coordinate describes the position of the chassis relative to the ground, and therefore also that of the centre of the wheel of radius 2r. Since the spring has one endpoint attached to a thread wounded on the roller, the displacement of this endpoint relative to the ground can be obtained through the integration of its speed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Given the velocities of the two spring endpoints, it is evident that its length is decreasing. The approaching speed between the endpoints is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{approaching}}(=-\dot{\rho})=\frac{3}{2}\dot{\xs}-\dot{\xs}=\frac{1}{2}\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the spring length decrease from the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; configuration is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{1}{2}\xs(=-\Delta \rho)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The spring attraction force (since  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is an attraction force because the spring is stretched for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{at}}^{\mathrm{spring}} + \mathrm{k}\Delta \rho = \mathrm{F}_0 - \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{k}\xs &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The damper attraction force can be obtained from the approaching velocity calculated previously:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{approaching}}(=-\dot{\rho})=\frac{1}{2}\dot{\xs} \Rightarrow \mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{at}}^{\mathrm{damper}}=\mathrm{c} \dot{\rho}=-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{c} \dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Torsion springs and dampers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Torsion springs&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsion dampers&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; introduce moments (not forces) between the two rigid bodies they connect. As with linear elements, the connection to each rigid body must guarantee that no other moments but that of the spring or camper are transmitted. As with linear elements, there are several ways to achieve this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When torsion springs and torsion dampers have a linear behaviour, the moment increment they introduce between the rigid bodies, when the relative orientation between them increases by an angle &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, is proportional to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, respectively (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.4 Direct constraint interactions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Direct constraint interactions between two rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; occur when they are in contact, and they come from small local deformations of the rigid bodies in the contact zone. From a macroscopic point of view, this results in impenetrability and roughness of the rigid bodies. As mentioned in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.7 Constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D2.7&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, as this course deals with the dynamics of rigid objects, those deformations are not formulated, and therefore the associated forces are unknowns of the dynamic problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the constraints involve rigid bodies (not particles), it is necessary to specify whether they are smooth or rough. A smooth surface cannot prevent an element from sliding on it while in contact. However, a rough surface can prevent this. This has a direct consequence on the constraint characterization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As an introduction to the characterization of constraints between rigid bodies, it is useful to consider the simplest case of a single-point contact.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider two rigid bodies S1 and S2 with a single-point contact. The contact points are &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, respectively. The characterization of the constraint exerted by S2 on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (or exerted by S1 on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is obtained as that of the[[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.7 Constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;particle-surface constraint&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]] (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.9&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-9-eng.png|thumb|center|700px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.9&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Characterization of the single-point contact between S1 and S2.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the constraint between S1 and S2 is associated with a multiple-point contact, the orthogonality condition between the constraint force and the allowed velocity can be applied to each point where contact occurs (which implies accepting that the múltiple-point constraint can be obtained as a superposition of independent single-point contacts). Sometimes, this leads to a high number of constraint force components (even infinite, if contact occurs along a continuous linear section or a continuous surface section), and the force system must be reduced to a constraint torsor. In some cases, this reduction can be obtained very easily from the point-to-point constraint description.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although it is possible to calculate the torsor of a system of forces at any point (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D3.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;), when dealing with constraint torsors it is convenient that that point belongs to the rigid body undergoing that system of forces, because an important property is derived from it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.3: constraint torsor in a two-point contact====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-3-1-eng.png|thumb|left|175px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The block has a two-point contact with a smooth floor, and has a planar motion.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-3-2-neut.png|thumb|right|175px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
:The description of the constraint as a superposition of two single-point contacts leads to two normal forces: if there were only contact at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the constraint would introduce only a force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; orthogonal to the ground (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;); if the contact were only at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, it would introduce a force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; orthogonal to the block (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; values are independent (knowing &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; does not imply knowing &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). The two-point contact, therefore, introduces two constraint unknowns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since there are only two forces, the reduction to a torsor is not necessary. On the other hand, this description is useful for studying the two limit conditions: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates loss of contact at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (therefore, clockwise tipping), while &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates loss of contact at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (therefore, counterclockwise tipping).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this case, the torsor associated with that system of forces does not reduce the number of unknowns, which is two. The resulting force has two independent components:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\overline{\mathrm{F}}_{\mathrm{T} \rightarrow \text { block }}\right\}=\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{F}_1 \\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{F}_2 \\&lt;br /&gt;
 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \text {, amb }\left\{\begin{array}{l}&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{F}_1=-\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{Q}} \sin \theta \\&lt;br /&gt;
\mathrm{F}_2=\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}}+\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{Q}} \cos \theta&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right. \text {. }&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The resulting moment depends on the point of the block where the torsor is characterized, and when it is not zero, it can be written in terms of the force components.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-3-3-eng.png|thumb|center|600px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moving from the point-to-point description to the torsor has no advantage in this case: it does not reduce the number of constraint unknowns, and it makes the study of boundary conditions more difficult.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The roller has a sliding contact with a horizontal ground S. The description of the multiple-point constraint as a superposition of single-point contacts leads to a set of infinite forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; at the contact points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the direction orthogonal to the ground (direction 3). The resultant constraint force on the roller is therefore also in direction 3, and must be strictly positive since it is a unilateral constraint:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_{\mathrm{J} \in \text { roller }} \mathrm{N}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}=\mathrm{N}&amp;gt;0 .&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The resultant constraint moment depends on the point on the roller at which it is calculated. At points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the sign of resultant moment is given:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\{\overline{\mathbf{M}}(\mathbf{P})\}=\left\{\int_{\text {J} \in \mathrm{roller }} \overline{\mathbf{P J}} \times \overline{\mathbf{N}}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}\right\}=\left\{\begin{array}{c}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:ExD3-4-2-eng.png|center|700px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The description of the constraint through the torsor is very advantageous: it drastically reduces the number of constraint unknowns (we now have only two). If the torsor is characterized at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the study of the limit condition for overturning is easy: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_2=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If it is characterized at any other point on the contact line, we must go to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to investigate the overturning.&lt;br /&gt;

===Analytical characterization of the constraint torsor between two rigid bodies S1 and S2===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization of the constraint torsor between two rigid bodies can be done without going through the point-to-point description of the constraint: if the characterization point belongs to one of the two rigid bodies, it is enough to combine the orthogonality condition between force and velocity at each contact point with the rigid solid kinematics, and add all the equations that result from it (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.10&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-10-eng.png|thumb|center|210px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.10&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Analytical characterization of a multiple-point contact between two rigid bodies.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vectors &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \text{ and }\overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be factored out. Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \Biggl(\sum_\mathrm{J} \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}} \Biggl) \cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) + \Biggr[ \sum_\mathrm{J} (\overline{\mathbf{PJ}} \times \mathbf{F}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}) \Biggr] \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} = 0  \Rightarrow  \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}\cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) + \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1}=0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the equation of the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;analytical characterization&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the constraint torsor. It establishes the orthogonality between the constraint torsor &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{ \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}} \quad \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps)\bigl\}^\top&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the kinematic torsor &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \quad \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} \bigl\}^\top&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of S1 relative to S2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\begin{array}{c}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) &lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \cdot \left\{\begin{array}{c}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} &lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} =0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This orthogonality does not imply orthogonality between force and velocity on the one hand, and between moment and angular velocity on the other. In principle, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}\cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \neq 0 \text{, } \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} \neq 0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When using the analytical characterization equation, it is initially necessary to consider that both the resulting force and moment have three non-zero components. As for the kinematic torsor, its non-zero components must be written as a function of the DoF of S1 relative to S2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, since the force and velocity of the point are multiplied scalarly on the one hand, and the moment and angular velocity on the other, different vector bases can be used for each of these scalar products, since the result does not depend on the basis:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}} \bigl\}_\mathrm{B} \cdot \bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \bigl\}_\mathrm{B} + \bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) \bigl\}_\mathrm{B&amp;#039;} \cdot \bigl\{\overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} \bigl\}_\mathrm{B&amp;#039;}  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}}\cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S}(\Ps) + \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}}(\Ps) \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S}^\mathrm{roller}=0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} =0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All the components (but &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) of the constraint torsor can have any value, since they are multiplied by zero. However, since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not zero in principle, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has to be zero for the orthogonality equation to be satisfied. Thus, the resulting constraint torsor is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{ \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}} \quad \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}}(\Ps)\bigl\}^\top = \bigl\{\mathrm{F}_1 \quad \mathrm{F}_2 \quad \mathrm{F}_3 \qquad 0 \quad \mathrm{M}_2 \quad \mathrm{M}_3 \bigl\}^\top . &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

A negative value would indicate overturning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The five non-zero components are independent, and it is true that the sum of the number of independent components of the torsor and that of DoF of the roller with respect to S is 6.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The torsor of the same constraint at a different point can be obtained either by applying again the analytical characterization equation, or from the torsor at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

Since there is no sliding at the contact point, the velocity components  and  are proportional to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, respectively: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1=-\rs \Omega_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3=\rs \Omega_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (the negative sign of the first equality indicates that a positive &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; generates a negative &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). Substituting in the characterization equation and developing the scalar product (without including the component &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, because it is multiplied by zero):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(-\rs \mathrm{F}_1 + \mathrm{M}_3) \Omega_3 + (\rs \mathrm{F}_3 + \mathrm{M}_1) \Omega_1 + \mathrm{M}_2\Omega_2=0. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the three rotations are independent, the coefficients that multiply them have to be zero for the equation to hold for any value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\rs \mathrm{F}_1 + \mathrm{M}_3=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ,&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rs \mathrm{F}_3 + \mathrm{M}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_2=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{ \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{cav}\rightarrow \mathrm{ball}} \quad \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{cav}\rightarrow \mathrm{ball}}(\mathbf{G})\bigl\}^\top = \bigl\{\mathrm{F}_1 \quad \mathrm{F}_2 \quad \mathrm{F}_3 \qquad \mathrm{M}_1 \quad 0 \quad \mathrm{M}_3 \bigl\}^\top&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, amb &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_3=\rs \mathrm{F}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; i &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_1=-\rs \mathrm{F}_3.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The torsor has five non-zero components, but only three are independent, and the sum of the number of independent components of the torsor and the DoF of the ball with respect to the cavity is 6.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This torsor can also be obtained from the characterization at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
-----------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As seen in the previous examples, the analytical characterization equation ensures that the sum of the number of independent components of the constraint torsor between two rigid bpdies and the number of relative DoF between them is always 6:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{indep. torsor comps. + relative DoF = 6}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Straightforward characterization of the constraint torsor===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When we choose a characterization point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; whose velocity, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{v}}_{\mathrm{S1}}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, is independent from  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{\Omega}}_{\mathrm{S1}}^{\mathrm{S2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and a vector basis such that the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{v}}_{\mathrm{S1}}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; components of are independent of each other and those of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{\Omega}}_{\mathrm{S1}}^{\mathrm{S2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are also independent, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;the characterization is straightforward&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: each zero component of the kinematic torsor corresponds to a non-zero component of the dynamic torsor, and each non-zero component of the kinematic torsor corresponds to a zero component of the dynamic torsor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The conical millstone does not slide on the conical ground (E). The characterization of the direct constraint torque of the ground on the millstone at any of the contact points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; can be straightforward, because &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_\mathrm{E}(\mathbf{J})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; independently of the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{millstone}{E}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the straightforward characterization to be possible, we must choose a vector basis for the constraint moment such that the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{millstone}{E}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; components of are independent. Since the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{millstone}{E}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; direction is univocally determined (the wheel has 1 DoF relative to the ground), any vector basis having an axis parallel to the millstone &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C4.

---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-8-1-eng.png|thumb|left|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization of the direct constraint torsor of the male of the helical joint on the female cannot be straightforward.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a helical joint, there is no point on the female whose speed relative to the male is independent of the rotation between the two pieces. Therefore, straightforward characterization is not possible.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we choose any point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; on axis 3, the analytical characterization leads to:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\fvec{male}{female}\cdot \vvec_\mathrm{male}(\mathbf{O})+ \mvec{male}{female}(\mathbf{O}) \cdot \velang{female}{male}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{F}_2}{\mathrm{F}_3}\vector{0}{0}{\mathrm{v}_3}+\vector{\mathrm{M}_1}{\mathrm{M}_2}{\mathrm{M}_3}\vector{0}{0}{\Omega_3}=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \braq{\fvec{male}{female}}{}=\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{F}_2}{...}\quad \text{,} \quad \braq{\mvec{male}{female}(\mathbf{O})}{}=\vector{\mathrm{M}_1}{\mathrm{M}_2}{...}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The speed of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; along the axis is directly proportional to the rotation through the thread pitch e. Since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is measured in rad/s, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in m/s, and e is given in mm/turn, a conversion of units must be made:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3\left[\frac{\ms}{\ss}\right] = \Omega_3\left[\frac{\mathrm{rad}}{\ss}\right]\es\left[\frac{\mathrm{mm}}{\mathrm{ volta}}\right]\frac{1 \ms}{10^3 \mathrm{ mm}}\frac{1 \mathrm{turn}}{2 \pi \mathrm{ rad}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}_3= \Omega_3 \frac{\es}{2 \pi \cdot 10^3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\fvec{male}{female}}{}=\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{F}_2}{\mathrm{F}_3}\quad \text{,} \quad \braq{\mvec{male}{female}(\mathbf{O})}{}=\vector{\mathrm{M}_1}{\mathrm{M}_2}{\mathrm{M}_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, amb &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_3= -\frac{\es}{2 \pi \cdot 10^3} \mathrm{F}_3 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In multibody systems formed only by rigid bodies with non-negligible mass connected by these usual joints, the dynamic description of the constraint is made by &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;considering separately each pair of connected rigid bodies as if all the other elements of the system did not exist&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)==&lt;br /&gt;
In multibody systems, it is common for some rigid bodies to have negligible mass compared to the others, and to be undergoing exclusively constraint interactions with other rigid bodies. These elements are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and they can be treated in a particular way when characterizing constraints.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
En els sistemes multisòlid, és freqüent que alguns sòlids tinguin massa negligible comparats amb els altres i que no reben altres interaccions que les d’enllaç amb altres sòlids. Aquests sòlids s’anomenen &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Sòlids Auxiliars d’Enllaç&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;SAE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), i se’ls pot donar un tractament particular quan es tracta de caracteritzar enllaços.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; shows a rigid body S1 in contact with a rigid body S of negligible mass, undergoing only constraint interactions, in two different situations: S just in contact with S1 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) and S in contact with two rigid bodie S1 and S2 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-12-eng.png|thumb|center|500px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Interaction between rigid bodies S1 and S2 through a constraint auxiliary element (CAE).	&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without S2, S (in contact with S1) is dynamically irrelevant: S is not an obstacle to moving S1. Consequently, S is not able to introduce any constraint force on S1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But when S connects S1 and S2, it becomes a transmitter: S2 can be an obstacle when it comes to triggering certain movements of S1, and this translates into constraint forces on S1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a simple case to illustrate this, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.13&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; shows two examples (which we will consider 2D examples) where two rigid bodies S1 and S2 on a smooth plane are connected through a bar of negligible mass (compared to that of S1 and S2) hinged at both ends. We will assume that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(a) the joints are perfect joints (without friction)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(b) one of the joints is associated with a torsion spring&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-13-eng.png|thumb|center|500px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.13&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Indirect constraint between two rigid bodies S1 and S2 through a massless bar S with hinges.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In case (a), the bar is a CAE (undergoing only constraint interactions). Moving point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of S1 in the direction of the bar implies moving S and S2. On the other hand, moving &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the direction orthogonal to the bar provokes motion of S but not of S2, while rotating S1 around &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; provokes motion of neither of them (neither of S nor of S2). Therefore, it only makes sense to associate a constraint force on S1 in the direction of the bar. The element responsible for that force is not S but S2: when it comes to characterising the constraint on S1, the kinematics of S1 must be assessed from S2. We say then that there is an &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;indirect constraint through the CAE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; between S1 and S2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In case (b), the bar is not a CAE because it undergoes a non-constraint interaction (that of the spring). As in case (a), moving &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the direction of the bar forces S2 to move. But now, moving &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in a direction perpendicular to the bar forces the spring to deform, which acts on S2 and provokes its motion. Rotational motion of S1 about &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is still possible without having to move S2 or deform the spring. In characterizing the constraint on S1, the kinematics of S1 must be assessed such that &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has no velocity: it must be assessed from S.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.10: characterization of an indirect constraint====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-10-1-eng.png|thumb|left|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The chariot has 2 free DoF relative to the ground (longitudinal translation and vertical rotation). If the mass of the three elements (wheels and chassis) is comparable, the simplified representation of the system and the number of constraint unknowns it contains is as follows:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-10-2-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The total number of constraint unknowns is 17.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This number can be reduced if the mass of the wheels is negligible (compared to that of the chassis): the chassis has three constraints with the ground, one direct and two indirect through the wheels, which are CAE. The number of unknowns introduced by one of these indirect constraints is not always obvious &amp;#039;&amp;#039;a priori&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and it is advisable to characterise it analytically. But it must be remembered that the kinematical description must correspond to that of the chassis with respect to the ground as if only the constraint under consideration acted on it. In this case, therefore, in the characterisation of the indirect constraint between the ground and the chassis through the wheels, the kinematics must be evaluated as if direct contact with the ground (at the front of the chassis) did not exist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Characterization of the indirect constraint torsor between ground and chassis through one wheel, at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;C&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and vector basis (1,2,3):&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; speed is only possible if there is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; rotation: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1=\rs\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Introducing that relationship and proceeding to the scalar product: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\mathrm{v}_2,\Omega_1,\Omega_2,\Omega_3)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are independent, the coefficient of each of the velocities components must be zero. Therefore, the indirect constraint introduces only 2 unknowns:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; speed comes from the rotation of the bar, but not from that of the plate: since there is a revolute joint at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the plate may have a circular translational motion when the bar rotates. Therefore, it is a straightforward characterization:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The ball has 4 free DoF relative to the ground (translational motions along the r-r’ axis and axis 2, rotations about the r-r’ axis and axis 2). If there are no elements of negligible mass, the total number of constraint unknowns is 8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the T-element has a negligible mass and is treated as CAE, the characterization of the indirect constraint torsor between the ground and the ball through this element at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; speed is only possible if the T-element (and therefore the ball) rotate with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3=-\xs\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If this relationship is introduced in the equation and the scalar product is developed:&lt;br /&gt;

Si s’introdueix aquesta relació i es desenvolupa el producte escalar:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although the torsor at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has three nonzero components, there are only two independent ones.&lt;br /&gt;

A paradigmatic case where the dimension is drastically reduced is that of the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ball bearing&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.14&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). If the problem is treated as a planar one and the N balls are not considered as CAE, the number of constraint unknowns in the system is 4N (each ball has a nonsliding single-point contact with the two rígid bodies S1 and S2, and in the planar case, a single-point contact introduces two constraint unknowns). If they are treated as CAE, the indirect constraint between S1 and S2 through the balls is reduced to two constraint unknowns.&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.6 Interactions through linear and rotatory actuators==&lt;br /&gt;
Actuators are elements designed to control a degree of freedom (translation or rotation) between two rígid bodies and eliminate any other motion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From the outside, an actuator has two elements (P1 and P2) with only the DoF to be controlled between them (in the case of rotary actuators, those elements are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;stator&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;rotor&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). When inserted between two solids S1 and S2, the type of connection with the solids determines the GL eliminated between them. In this course, the mass of the actuators is always considered negligible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The interaction between S1 and S2 is therefore described by means of a force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; or a torque &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (or moment), depending on whether it is a linear or rotational actuator, and a constraint torsor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are two ways to describe the system consisting of S1, S2, P1 and P2:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Option 1: P1 and P2 are treated as two rigid bodies of the system. Between them, the direct constraint torsor is characterized as if the actuator were deactivated (allowing the DoF that it controls between the two elements when activated). Whether the actuator is linear or rotatory, the constraint torsor contains 5 independent components. In addition, between P1 and P2 there is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; force or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; torque. The interaction between S1 and P1, and between S2 and P2 is described by the corresponding constraint.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Option 2: The actuator is considered deactivated, and P1 and P2 are treated as &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;CAE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. The interaction between S1 and S2 is then explained by the torque of the indirect constraint associated with this CAE chain, and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; force or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; torque .&lt;br /&gt;

We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;describe the interaction between the ground and the pendulum&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 1&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the P1 element of the actuator is attached to the ground, they can be considered as a single element. Part 2, on the other hand, is not attached but hinged to the pendulum.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-15-2-eng.png|thumb|center|550px|link=]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of both constraints is straightforward:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

* Prismatic constraint:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}}{}=\vector{0}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{\Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Revolute joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}}{}=\vector{\Fs_1}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 2&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The indirect constraint torsor between ground and pendulum through the actuator at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; can be characterized analytically:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
|The linear actuator acts between the support and the propeller, and controls the speed of point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in direction 2 (which causes the propeller to rotate as long as it does not go through singular configurations – for example, when the direction of the actuator is vertical and goes through &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;describe the interaction between the support and the propeller&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Opció 1&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
None of the elements of the actuator are fixed to the support or the propeller. Therefore:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization of the three constraints is straightforward:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Revolute joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{support}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}1}}{}=\vector{\Fs_1}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{support}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}1}(\Os&amp;#039;)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Prismatic joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}}{}=\vector{0}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{\Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Revolute joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}}{}=\vector{\Fs_1}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 2&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The torsor of the indirect constraint between support and propeller through the actuator is zero: as there are spherical joints at both ends of the actuator, point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; may move in all directions with respect to the support.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The interaction between support and propeller through the actuator is reduced to a force (which is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; force of the actuator does when it is activated):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

|The motor, of negligible mass, acts between the ground and the ring, and controls the angular velocity between the two. We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;describe the interaction between the ground and the ring&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 1&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this case, the stator (P1) is fixed to the ground, and the rotor (P2) is fixed to the ring. Therefore, only option 1 makes sense.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The constraint torsor between the ground (+P1) and the ring (+P2) corresponds to a revolute joint, and its characterization is straightforward:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Interaction forces between particles|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, interactions between pairs of particles &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are described by a single force with direction &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\Ps \Qs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. When the interaction is between pairs of rigid bodies (which can be considered as two sets of infinite particles), the particle-by-particle description would lead to a system of infinite forces. In this case, we must move on to a compact description of this system of forces that nevertheless retains the information necessary to study the dynamics of rigid bodies: the system of forces is replaced by a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;resultant torsor&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This unit introduces the concept of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor associated with a system of forces&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and then applies it to the various interactions between solids (at a distance, in contact, and through intermediate elements).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-----------&lt;br /&gt;
-----------&lt;br /&gt;
==D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces==&lt;br /&gt;
The reduction of a system of forces on a rigid body to a torsor is mandatory when the number of forces is very high (infinite). When it is a system of just a few forces, it is usually optional.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An effective mathematical operation to reduce the number of forces on a rigid body S is addition: however high the number of forces, the sum leads to a single &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;resultant force&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. However, this drastic reduction implies a loss of essential information in many cases. As long as there is no interest in studying the deformation of objects (i.e., when only the dynamics of rigid bodies is studied), this is solved by adding a second vector to the compact description of the system: the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;resultant moment&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torque&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;about a point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The set of these two vectors (resultant force and resultant moment) is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsor of the system of forces at point Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-1-eng.png|thumb|center|370px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Torsor associated with a system of forces on a rigid body.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By way of an example, consider the case of a rigid bar initially at rest undergoing a system of forces with zero resultant force. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; shows three different situations corresponding to this situation: (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) free from forces, (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) forces parallel to the bar, (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) forces perpendicular to the bar. In the first two cases (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a, b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), the system of forces does not modify the state of rest. In the third case (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), the forces provoke a clockwise rotation of the bar. The resultant torsor at any point allows us to distinguish between (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) and (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a, b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The resultant force never depends on the point where the torsor is calculated. However, the resultant moment generally does depend on that point (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.2 Gravitational attraction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The calculation of the resultant gravitational torsor on a rigid body &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; due to a rígid body &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not simple. The resultant gravitational force on a mass differential dm(&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{Q}} \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is derived from the forces (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Qs \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ) that each mass differential exerts on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). The resultant torsor on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is obtained from all these forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Qs \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; on all mass differentials of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
When it comes to the Earth gravitational attraction (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{Q} = \mathrm{Earth}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) on a rigid body of small dimensions compared to those of the Earth and close to the Earth&amp;#039;s surface, we usually apply the uniform field approximation: the forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{Q}} \rightarrow \Ps}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are practically parallel to each other and their value is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{F}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{Q}} \rightarrow \Ps} = \mathrm{gdm}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, with g constant and equal to the gravitational field at the Earth&amp;#039;s surface: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{g}=\mathrm{G}_0 \frac{\mathrm{M}_\Ts}{\Rs_\Ts^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{G}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D2.

In this case, it can be shown that there exists a point in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; where the gravitational torsor is a resultant force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{T}} \rightarrow \mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{P}}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with value mg (where m is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; mass) pointing towards the centre of the Earth, and a zero gravitational resultant moment. That point is the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;gravity centre&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the rigid body, and will be represented by letter &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.6&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.3 Interaction through linear and torsion springs and dampers==&lt;br /&gt;
===Linear springs and dampers===&lt;br /&gt;
When a linear spring or a linear damper connects two points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of two different rigid bodies, we have to guarantee that the connection is made in such a way that the force transmitted between the points has the direction of the element, and that no moment (or torque) is transmitted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In some cases, this can be achieved by inserting the element between two lengths of inextensible thread (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.7a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). Then, the force between points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; can only be an attraction (due to the unilateral nature of the thread action).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In other cases, it is necessary to use &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C2. Movement of a mechanical system#C2.8 Usual constraints in mechanical systems|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;revolute joints&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; (if it is a planar problem, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.7b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) or &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[C2.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.1: repulsion force of a linear spring and a linear damper with linear behaviour====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-1-1-neut.png|thumb|left|175px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
:The spring, which has linear behaviour, acts between the support fixed to the ground and a vertical axis that is in contact with the bar. For &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the system is in equilibrium, and the force exerted by the spring between its endpoints is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Without the spring, the bar, which is hinged to the support at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, would fall (clockwise rotation). If there is equilibrium for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the spring must exert a repulsive force between its endpoints in that configuration. Therefore, the logical thing to do is to formulate the spring force for a general configuration as a repulsive force:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{rep}}^{\mathrm{spring}}= \mathrm{F}_0 - \mathrm{k}\Delta\rho=\mathrm{F}_0-\mathrm{k}[\rho(\theta) - \rho(\theta=0)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The length increase &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta \rho &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of the spring from equilibrium configuration is proportional to the tangent of the angle: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{tan}\theta=\Delta\rho/\mathrm{L}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Therefore: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{rep}}^{\mathrm{rping}}=\mathrm{F}_0-\mathrm{kL}\mathrm{tan}\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The damper repulsion force can be obtained from the length increase through a time derivative:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho=\mathrm{Ltan}\theta \Rightarrow \dot{\rho} = \frac{\mathrm{L}\dot{\theta}}{\mathrm{cos}^2\theta} \Rightarrow \mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{rep}}^{\mathrm{damper}}=\mathrm{c}\dot{\rho}=-\mathrm{c} \frac{\mathrm{L}\dot{\theta}}{\mathrm{cos}^2\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.2: attraction force of a linear spring and a linear damper with linear behaviour====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-2-1-eng.png|thumb|left|180px|link=]] &lt;br /&gt;
:The spring, with linear behaviour, has one endpoint fixed to the chassis of the vehicle, and the other one to an inextensible thread that wounds on a roller of radius r. That roller is fixed to the wheel of radius 2r, which does not slide on the ground. For &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the spring is stretched and exerts a force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; between its endpoints.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-2-2-eng.png|thumb|right|220px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
:The x coordinate describes the position of the chassis relative to the ground, and therefore also that of the centre of the wheel of radius 2r. Since the spring has one endpoint attached to a thread wounded on the roller, the displacement of this endpoint relative to the ground can be obtained through the integration of its speed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Given the velocities of the two spring endpoints, it is evident that its length is decreasing. The approaching speed between the endpoints is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{approaching}}(=-\dot{\rho})=\frac{3}{2}\dot{\xs}-\dot{\xs}=\frac{1}{2}\dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Therefore, the spring length decrease from the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; configuration is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{1}{2}\xs(=-\Delta \rho)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The spring attraction force (since  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is an attraction force because the spring is stretched for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\xs = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{at}}^{\mathrm{spring}} + \mathrm{k}\Delta \rho = \mathrm{F}_0 - \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{k}\xs &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The damper attraction force can be obtained from the approaching velocity calculated previously:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{approaching}}(=-\dot{\rho})=\frac{1}{2}\dot{\xs} \Rightarrow \mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{at}}^{\mathrm{damper}}=\mathrm{c} \dot{\rho}=-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{c} \dot{\xs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Torsion springs and dampers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Torsion springs&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;torsion dampers&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; introduce moments (not forces) between the two rigid bodies they connect. As with linear elements, the connection to each rigid body must guarantee that no other moments but that of the spring or camper are transmitted. As with linear elements, there are several ways to achieve this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When torsion springs and torsion dampers have a linear behaviour, the moment increment they introduce between the rigid bodies, when the relative orientation between them increases by an angle &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, is proportional to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta \theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, respectively (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.4 Direct constraint interactions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Direct constraint interactions between two rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; occur when they are in contact, and they come from small local deformations of the rigid bodies in the contact zone. From a macroscopic point of view, this results in impenetrability and roughness of the rigid bodies. As mentioned in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.7 Constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D2.7&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, as this course deals with the dynamics of rigid objects, those deformations are not formulated, and therefore the associated forces are unknowns of the dynamic problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the constraints involve rigid bodies (not particles), it is necessary to specify whether they are smooth or rough. A smooth surface cannot prevent an element from sliding on it while in contact. However, a rough surface can prevent this. This has a direct consequence on the constraint characterization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As an introduction to the characterization of constraints between rigid bodies, it is useful to consider the simplest case of a single-point contact.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider two rigid bodies S1 and S2 with a single-point contact. The contact points are &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, respectively. The characterization of the constraint exerted by S2 on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (or exerted by S1 on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ps_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is obtained as that of the[[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.7 Constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;particle-surface constraint&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]] (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.9&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-9-eng.png|thumb|center|700px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.9&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Characterization of the single-point contact between S1 and S2.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the constraint between S1 and S2 is associated with a multiple-point contact, the orthogonality condition between the constraint force and the allowed velocity can be applied to each point where contact occurs (which implies accepting that the múltiple-point constraint can be obtained as a superposition of independent single-point contacts). Sometimes, this leads to a high number of constraint force components (even infinite, if contact occurs along a continuous linear section or a continuous surface section), and the force system must be reduced to a constraint torsor. In some cases, this reduction can be obtained very easily from the point-to-point constraint description.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although it is possible to calculate the torsor of a system of forces at any point (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.1 Torsor associated with a system of forces|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;section D3.1&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;), when dealing with constraint torsors it is convenient that that point belongs to the rigid body undergoing that system of forces, because an important property is derived from it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.3: constraint torsor in a two-point contact====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-3-1-eng.png|thumb|left|175px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The block has a two-point contact with a smooth floor, and has a planar motion.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-3-2-neut.png|thumb|right|175px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
:The description of the constraint as a superposition of two single-point contacts leads to two normal forces: if there were only contact at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the constraint would introduce only a force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; orthogonal to the ground (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;); if the contact were only at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, it would introduce a force at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; orthogonal to the block (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; values are independent (knowing &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; does not imply knowing &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). The two-point contact, therefore, introduces two constraint unknowns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since there are only two forces, the reduction to a torsor is not necessary. On the other hand, this description is useful for studying the two limit conditions: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{P}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates loss of contact at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (therefore, clockwise tipping), while &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_\mathrm{Q}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; indicates loss of contact at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (therefore, counterclockwise tipping).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this case, the torsor associated with that system of forces does not reduce the number of unknowns, which is two. The resulting force has two independent components:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The resulting moment depends on the point of the block where the torsor is characterized, and when it is not zero, it can be written in terms of the force components.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Moving from the point-to-point description to the torsor has no advantage in this case: it does not reduce the number of constraint unknowns, and it makes the study of boundary conditions more difficult.&lt;br /&gt;

:The roller has a sliding contact with a horizontal ground S. The description of the multiple-point constraint as a superposition of single-point contacts leads to a set of infinite forces &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Ns_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; at the contact points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the direction orthogonal to the ground (direction 3). The resultant constraint force on the roller is therefore also in direction 3, and must be strictly positive since it is a unilateral constraint:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int_{\mathrm{J} \in \text { roller }} \mathrm{N}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}=\mathrm{N}&amp;gt;0 .&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The resultant constraint moment depends on the point on the roller at which it is calculated. At points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the sign of resultant moment is given:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\{\overline{\mathbf{M}}(\mathbf{P})\}=\left\{\int_{\text {J} \in \mathrm{roller }} \overline{\mathbf{P J}} \times \overline{\mathbf{N}}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}\right\}=\left\{\begin{array}{c}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:ExD3-4-2-eng.png|center|700px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The description of the constraint through the torsor is very advantageous: it drastically reduces the number of constraint unknowns (we now have only two). If the torsor is characterized at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the study of the limit condition for overturning is easy: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_2=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If it is characterized at any other point on the contact line, we must go to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to investigate the overturning.&lt;br /&gt;

===Analytical characterization of the constraint torsor between two rigid bodies S1 and S2===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization of the constraint torsor between two rigid bodies can be done without going through the point-to-point description of the constraint: if the characterization point belongs to one of the two rigid bodies, it is enough to combine the orthogonality condition between force and velocity at each contact point with the rigid solid kinematics, and add all the equations that result from it (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.10&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.10&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Analytical characterization of a multiple-point contact between two rigid bodies.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vectors &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \text{ and }\overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; can be factored out. Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \Biggl(\sum_\mathrm{J} \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}} \Biggl) \cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) + \Biggr[ \sum_\mathrm{J} (\overline{\mathbf{PJ}} \times \mathbf{F}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{J}}) \Biggr] \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} = 0  \Rightarrow  \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}\cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) + \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1}=0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the equation of the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;analytical characterization&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the constraint torsor. It establishes the orthogonality between the constraint torsor &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{ \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}} \quad \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps)\bigl\}^\top&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the kinematic torsor &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \quad \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} \bigl\}^\top&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of S1 relative to S2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left\{\begin{array}{c}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) &lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} \cdot \left\{\begin{array}{c}&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} &lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} =0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This orthogonality does not imply orthogonality between force and velocity on the one hand, and between moment and angular velocity on the other. In principle, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}\cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \neq 0 \text{, } \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} \neq 0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When using the analytical characterization equation, it is initially necessary to consider that both the resulting force and moment have three non-zero components. As for the kinematic torsor, its non-zero components must be written as a function of the DoF of S1 relative to S2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, since the force and velocity of the point are multiplied scalarly on the one hand, and the moment and angular velocity on the other, different vector bases can be used for each of these scalar products, since the result does not depend on the basis:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}} \bigl\}_\mathrm{B} \cdot \bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S2}(\Ps) \bigl\}_\mathrm{B} + \bigl\{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S2}\rightarrow \mathrm{S1}}(\Ps) \bigl\}_\mathrm{B&amp;#039;} \cdot \bigl\{\overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S2}^\mathrm{S1} \bigl\}_\mathrm{B&amp;#039;}  &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}}\cdot \overline{\mathbf{v}}_\mathrm{S}(\Ps) + \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}}(\Ps) \cdot \overline{\boldsymbol{\Omega}}_\mathrm{S}^\mathrm{roller}=0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}\right\} =0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All the components (but &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) of the constraint torsor can have any value, since they are multiplied by zero. However, since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is not zero in principle, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has to be zero for the orthogonality equation to be satisfied. Thus, the resulting constraint torsor is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{ \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}} \quad \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow \mathrm{roller}}(\Ps)\bigl\}^\top = \bigl\{\mathrm{F}_1 \quad \mathrm{F}_2 \quad \mathrm{F}_3 \qquad 0 \quad \mathrm{M}_2 \quad \mathrm{M}_3 \bigl\}^\top . &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

A negative value would indicate overturning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The five non-zero components are independent, and it is true that the sum of the number of independent components of the torsor and that of DoF of the roller with respect to S is 6.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The torsor of the same constraint at a different point can be obtained either by applying again the analytical characterization equation, or from the torsor at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

Since the three rotations are independent, the coefficients that multiply them have to be zero for the equation to hold for any value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;-\rs \mathrm{F}_1 + \mathrm{M}_3=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ,&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rs \mathrm{F}_3 + \mathrm{M}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_2=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Finally:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\bigl\{ \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{cav}\rightarrow \mathrm{ball}} \quad \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{cav}\rightarrow \mathrm{ball}}(\mathbf{G})\bigl\}^\top = \bigl\{\mathrm{F}_1 \quad \mathrm{F}_2 \quad \mathrm{F}_3 \qquad \mathrm{M}_1 \quad 0 \quad \mathrm{M}_3 \bigl\}^\top&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, amb &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_3=\rs \mathrm{F}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; i &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_1=-\rs \mathrm{F}_3.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The torsor has five non-zero components, but only three are independent, and the sum of the number of independent components of the torsor and the DoF of the ball with respect to the cavity is 6.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This torsor can also be obtained from the characterization at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3.

&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
-----------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As seen in the previous examples, the analytical characterization equation ensures that the sum of the number of independent components of the constraint torsor between two rigid bpdies and the number of relative DoF between them is always 6:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\boxed{\text{indep. torsor comps. + relative DoF = 6}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Straightforward characterization of the constraint torsor===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When we choose a characterization point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; whose velocity, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{v}}_{\mathrm{S1}}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, is independent from  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{\Omega}}_{\mathrm{S1}}^{\mathrm{S2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and a vector basis such that the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{v}}_{\mathrm{S1}}(\Ps)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; components of are independent of each other and those of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{\Omega}}_{\mathrm{S1}}^{\mathrm{S2}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are also independent, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;the characterization is straightforward&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: each zero component of the kinematic torsor corresponds to a non-zero component of the dynamic torsor, and each non-zero component of the kinematic torsor corresponds to a zero component of the dynamic torsor.&lt;br /&gt;

The conical millstone does not slide on the conical ground (E). The characterization of the direct constraint torque of the ground on the millstone at any of the contact points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;J&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; can be straightforward, because &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vvec_\mathrm{E}(\mathbf{J})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; independently of the angular velocity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{millstone}{E}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the straightforward characterization to be possible, we must choose a vector basis for the constraint moment such that the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{millstone}{E}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; components of are independent. Since the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\velang{millstone}{E}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; direction is univocally determined (the wheel has 1 DoF relative to the ground), any vector basis having an axis parallel to the millstone &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[C4.

&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-8-1-eng.png|thumb|left|200px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization of the direct constraint torsor of the male of the helical joint on the female cannot be straightforward.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a helical joint, there is no point on the female whose speed relative to the male is independent of the rotation between the two pieces. Therefore, straightforward characterization is not possible.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we choose any point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; on axis 3, the analytical characterization leads to:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\fvec{male}{female}\cdot \vvec_\mathrm{male}(\mathbf{O})+ \mvec{male}{female}(\mathbf{O}) \cdot \velang{female}{male}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{F}_2}{\mathrm{F}_3}\vector{0}{0}{\mathrm{v}_3}+\vector{\mathrm{M}_1}{\mathrm{M}_2}{\mathrm{M}_3}\vector{0}{0}{\Omega_3}=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \braq{\fvec{male}{female}}{}=\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{F}_2}{...}\quad \text{,} \quad \braq{\mvec{male}{female}(\mathbf{O})}{}=\vector{\mathrm{M}_1}{\mathrm{M}_2}{...}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The speed of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; along the axis is directly proportional to the rotation through the thread pitch e. Since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is measured in rad/s, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in m/s, and e is given in mm/turn, a conversion of units must be made:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3\left[\frac{\ms}{\ss}\right] = \Omega_3\left[\frac{\mathrm{rad}}{\ss}\right]\es\left[\frac{\mathrm{mm}}{\mathrm{ volta}}\right]\frac{1 \ms}{10^3 \mathrm{ mm}}\frac{1 \mathrm{turn}}{2 \pi \mathrm{ rad}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}_3= \Omega_3 \frac{\es}{2 \pi \cdot 10^3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\fvec{male}{female}}{}=\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{F}_2}{\mathrm{F}_3}\quad \text{,} \quad \braq{\mvec{male}{female}(\mathbf{O})}{}=\vector{\mathrm{M}_1}{\mathrm{M}_2}{\mathrm{M}_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, amb &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_3= -\frac{\es}{2 \pi \cdot 10^3} \mathrm{F}_3 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In multibody systems formed only by rigid bodies with non-negligible mass connected by these usual joints, the dynamic description of the constraint is made by &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;considering separately each pair of connected rigid bodies as if all the other elements of the system did not exist&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)==&lt;br /&gt;
In multibody systems, it is common for some rigid bodies to have negligible mass compared to the others, and to be undergoing exclusively constraint interactions with other rigid bodies. These elements are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and they can be treated in a particular way when characterizing constraints.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
En els sistemes multisòlid, és freqüent que alguns sòlids tinguin massa negligible comparats amb els altres i que no reben altres interaccions que les d’enllaç amb altres sòlids. Aquests sòlids s’anomenen &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Sòlids Auxiliars d’Enllaç&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;SAE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), i se’ls pot donar un tractament particular quan es tracta de caracteritzar enllaços.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; shows a rigid body S1 in contact with a rigid body S of negligible mass, undergoing only constraint interactions, in two different situations: S just in contact with S1 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) and S in contact with two rigid bodie S1 and S2 (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-12-eng.png|thumb|center|500px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.12&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Interaction between rigid bodies S1 and S2 through a constraint auxiliary element (CAE).	&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without S2, S (in contact with S1) is dynamically irrelevant: S is not an obstacle to moving S1. Consequently, S is not able to introduce any constraint force on S1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But when S connects S1 and S2, it becomes a transmitter: S2 can be an obstacle when it comes to triggering certain movements of S1, and this translates into constraint forces on S1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a simple case to illustrate this, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.13&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; shows two examples (which we will consider 2D examples) where two rigid bodies S1 and S2 on a smooth plane are connected through a bar of negligible mass (compared to that of S1 and S2) hinged at both ends. We will assume that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(a) the joints are perfect joints (without friction)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(b) one of the joints is associated with a torsion spring&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D3-13-eng.png|thumb|center|500px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.13&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Indirect constraint between two rigid bodies S1 and S2 through a massless bar S with hinges.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In case (a), the bar is a CAE (undergoing only constraint interactions). Moving point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of S1 in the direction of the bar implies moving S and S2. On the other hand, moving &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the direction orthogonal to the bar provokes motion of S but not of S2, while rotating S1 around &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; provokes motion of neither of them (neither of S nor of S2). Therefore, it only makes sense to associate a constraint force on S1 in the direction of the bar. The element responsible for that force is not S but S2: when it comes to characterising the constraint on S1, the kinematics of S1 must be assessed from S2. We say then that there is an &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;indirect constraint through the CAE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; between S1 and S2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In case (b), the bar is not a CAE because it undergoes a non-constraint interaction (that of the spring). As in case (a), moving &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the direction of the bar forces S2 to move. But now, moving &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in a direction perpendicular to the bar forces the spring to deform, which acts on S2 and provokes its motion. Rotational motion of S1 about &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is still possible without having to move S2 or deform the spring. In characterizing the constraint on S1, the kinematics of S1 must be assessed such that &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has no velocity: it must be assessed from S.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====✏️ EXAMPLE D3.10: characterization of an indirect constraint====&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-10-1-eng.png|thumb|left|250px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The chariot has 2 free DoF relative to the ground (longitudinal translation and vertical rotation). If the mass of the three elements (wheels and chassis) is comparable, the simplified representation of the system and the number of constraint unknowns it contains is as follows:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-10-2-eng.png|thumb|center|400px|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
The total number of constraint unknowns is 17.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This number can be reduced if the mass of the wheels is negligible (compared to that of the chassis): the chassis has three constraints with the ground, one direct and two indirect through the wheels, which are CAE. The number of unknowns introduced by one of these indirect constraints is not always obvious &amp;#039;&amp;#039;a priori&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and it is advisable to characterise it analytically. But it must be remembered that the kinematical description must correspond to that of the chassis with respect to the ground as if only the constraint under consideration acted on it. In this case, therefore, in the characterisation of the indirect constraint between the ground and the chassis through the wheels, the kinematics must be evaluated as if direct contact with the ground (at the front of the chassis) did not exist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Characterization of the indirect constraint torsor between ground and chassis through one wheel, at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;C&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and vector basis (1,2,3):&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(wheel)} \rightarrow \mathrm{chassis}} \cdot \vvec_\Es (\Cs) + \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(wheel)} \rightarrow \mathrm{chassis}}(\Cs) \cdot \velang{chassis}{E}=0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{F}_2}{\mathrm{F}_3}\vector{\mathrm{v}_1}{\mathrm{v}_2}{0}+ \vector{\mathrm{M}_1}{\mathrm{M}_2}{\mathrm{M}_3} \vector{\Omega_1}{\Omega_2}{\Omega_3}=0 \Rightarrow \braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(wheel)} \rightarrow \mathrm{chassis}}}{}=\vector{...}{...}{\mathrm{F}_3} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; speed is only possible if there is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; rotation: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1=\rs\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Introducing that relationship and proceeding to the scalar product: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\rs\mathrm{F}_1+\mathrm{M}_2)\Omega_2 + \mathrm{F}_2\mathrm{v}_2+ \mathrm{M}_1 \Omega_1 +\mathrm{M}_3 \Omega_3=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\mathrm{v}_2,\Omega_1,\Omega_2,\Omega_3)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are independent, the coefficient of each of the velocities components must be zero. Therefore, the indirect constraint introduces only 2 unknowns:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(wheel)} \rightarrow \mathrm{chassis}}}{}=\vector{\mathrm{F}_1}{0}{\mathrm{F}_3} \quad \text{,} \quad \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(wheel)} \rightarrow \mathrm{chassis}}(\Os)}{}=\vector{0}{\mathrm{M}_2}{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, amb &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_2=-\rs \mathrm{F}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; speed comes from the rotation of the bar, but not from that of the plate: since there is a revolute joint at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the plate may have a circular translational motion when the bar rotates. Therefore, it is a straightforward characterization:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The ball has 4 free DoF relative to the ground (translational motions along the r-r’ axis and axis 2, rotations about the r-r’ axis and axis 2). If there are no elements of negligible mass, the total number of constraint unknowns is 8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the T-element has a negligible mass and is treated as CAE, the characterization of the indirect constraint torsor between the ground and the ball through this element at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(T-elem)} \rightarrow \mathrm{ball}} \cdot \vvec_\Es (\Gs) + \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(T-elem)} \rightarrow \mathrm{ball}}(\Gs) \cdot \velang{ball}{E}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; speed is only possible if the T-element (and therefore the ball) rotate with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3=-\xs\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If this relationship is introduced in the equation and the scalar product is developed:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
La velocitat &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; només és possible si l’element T (i per tant la bola) giren amb &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; : &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_3=-\xs\Omega_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Si s’introdueix aquesta relació i es desenvolupa el producte escalar:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_1\mathrm{v}_1+\mathrm{F}_2\mathrm{v}_2+(-\xs\mathrm{F}_3+\mathrm{M}_2)\Omega_2+\mathrm{M}_1\Omega_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(T-elem)} \rightarrow \mathrm{ball}}}{}=\vector{0}{0}{\mathrm{F}_3} \quad \text{,} \quad \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\Es \rightarrow \mathrm{(T-elem)} \rightarrow \mathrm{ball}}(\Gs)}{}=\vector{0}{\mathrm{M}_2}{\mathrm{M}_3} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, amb &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{M}_2=\xs\mathrm{F}_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although the torsor at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has three nonzero components, there are only two independent ones.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
---------&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A paradigmatic case where the dimension is drastically reduced is that of the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ball bearing&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D3.14&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). If the problem is treated as a planar one and the N balls are not considered as CAE, the number of constraint unknowns in the system is 4N (each ball has a nonsliding single-point contact with the two rígid bodies S1 and S2, and in the planar case, a single-point contact introduces two constraint unknowns). If they are treated as CAE, the indirect constraint between S1 and S2 through the balls is reduced to two constraint unknowns.&lt;br /&gt;

The &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{v}_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; speeds come from the circular translational motion of the plate, and therefore are not independent: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\mathrm{v}_1}{\mathrm{v}_2}=-\mathrm{tan}\theta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==D3.6 Interactions through linear and rotatory actuators==&lt;br /&gt;
Actuators are elements designed to control a degree of freedom (translation or rotation) between two rígid bodies and eliminate any other motion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From the outside, an actuator has two elements (P1 and P2) with only the DoF to be controlled between them (in the case of rotary actuators, those elements are called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;stator&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;rotor&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). When inserted between two solids S1 and S2, the type of connection with the solids determines the GL eliminated between them. In this course, the mass of the actuators is always considered negligible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The interaction between S1 and S2 is therefore described by means of a force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; or a torque &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (or moment), depending on whether it is a linear or rotational actuator, and a constraint torsor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are two ways to describe the system consisting of S1, S2, P1 and P2:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Option 1: P1 and P2 are treated as two rigid bodies of the system. Between them, the direct constraint torsor is characterized as if the actuator were deactivated (allowing the DoF that it controls between the two elements when activated). Whether the actuator is linear or rotatory, the constraint torsor contains 5 independent components. In addition, between P1 and P2 there is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; force or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; torque. The interaction between S1 and P1, and between S2 and P2 is described by the corresponding constraint.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Option 2: The actuator is considered deactivated, and P1 and P2 are treated as &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[D3. Interactions between rigid bodies#D3.5 Indirect constraint interactions: Constraint Auxiliary Elements (CAE)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;CAE&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. The interaction between S1 and S2 is then explained by the torque of the indirect constraint associated with this CAE chain, and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; force or the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Gamma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; torque .&lt;br /&gt;

|}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 1&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the P1 element of the actuator is attached to the ground, they can be considered as a single element. Part 2, on the other hand, is not attached but hinged to the pendulum.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ExD3-15-2-eng.png|thumb|center|550px|link=]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of both constraints is straightforward:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Prismatic constraint:  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}}{}=\vector{0}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{\Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Revolute joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}}{}=\vector{\Fs_1}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 2&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The indirect constraint torsor between ground and pendulum through the actuator at point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; can be characterized analytically:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Opció 1&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
None of the elements of the actuator are fixed to the support or the propeller. Therefore:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The characterization of the three constraints is straightforward:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Revolute joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{support}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}1}}{}=\vector{\Fs_1}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{support}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}1}(\Os&amp;#039;)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Prismatic joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}}{}=\vector{0}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{ground}\rightarrow\mathrm{P}2}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{\Ms_3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Revolute joint: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\braq{\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}}{}=\vector{\Fs_1}{\Fs_2}{\Fs_3}, \braq{\overline{\mathbf{M}}_{\mathrm{P}2\rightarrow\mathrm{pendulum}}(\Os)}{}=\vector{\Ms_1}{\Ms_2}{0}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 2&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The torsor of the indirect constraint between support and propeller through the actuator is zero: as there are spherical joints at both ends of the actuator, point &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; may move in all directions with respect to the support.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The interaction between support and propeller through the actuator is reduced to a force (which is the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Fs_{ac}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; force of the actuator does when it is activated):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

|The motor, of negligible mass, acts between the ground and the ring, and controls the angular velocity between the two. We want to &amp;lt;u&amp;gt;describe the interaction between the ground and the ring&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Option 1&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this case, the stator (P1) is fixed to the ground, and the rotor (P2) is fixed to the ring. Therefore, only option 1 makes sense.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The constraint torsor between the ground (+P1) and the ring (+P2) corresponds to a revolute joint, and its characterization is straightforward:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

This section deals with the interaction forces between particles, whether they can be formulated or not. Formulating an interaction is finding a mathematical expression that allows calculating its value at each time instant given the mechanical state of the particles and the constants associated with the type of interaction phenomenon. When a force cannot be formulated, it is an unknown of the dynamic problem.&lt;br /&gt;

As both reference frames are Galilean, their relative motion is a translational one &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\bar{\Omega}_{\mathrm{RGal1}}^{\mathrm{RGal2}}=\overline{0}\right)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, therefore &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{v}}_{\text {RGal2 }}(\mathbf{P} \in \text { RGal1 })=\overline{\mathbf{v}}_{\text {RGal2 }}(\mathbf{Q} \in \text { RGal1 })&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

==D2.2 Classification of interaction forces==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the universe consisted only of dimensionless particles with no connecting elements between them, the list of possible interactions would be very short: in the mechanics, one could only speak of the force of gravitational attraction, which occurs “at a distance” (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;). Talking about contact interaction between particles (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) is not possible: if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; “come into contact”, since the location of each of them is defined by a single point, the direction of the interaction is not determined. On the other hand, two particles cannot occupy the same point in space. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strictly speaking, it is only possible to talk about contact interactions between a particle &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and a particle &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; that belongs to a rigid body &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, or between particles &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; that belong to rigid bodies &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{S}_\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, respectively. These interactions are dealt with in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D3. Interaccions entre sòlids rígids#|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unitat D3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; interact at a distance (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), we talk of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;direct interaction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. If they are not in contact (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) but them there is an element acting as an intermediate between them, we talk of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;indirect interaction through the element&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. In dynamics, all elements with negligible mass compared to that of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (if they are not part of a rigid body) or to the rigid bodies to which they belong are considered intermediate elements (IE). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Forces transmitted between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; through those elements fulfil the &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D1. Foundational laws of Newtonian dynamics#D1.6 Newton’s third law (action-reaction principle)|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Action-Reaction Principle&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;: they have the same value and are parallel to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{PQ}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, though they have opposite directions (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D2-2-eng.png|500px|thumb|center|link=]] &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Force transmitted through an intermediate element between two particles &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Intermediate elements are treated as a black box: the forces introduced between their endpoints come from deformations and phenomena that are outside the scope of the rigid body model considered in this course (for example, phenomena linked to fluid dynamics, thermodynamics or electromagnetics), and therefore what happens inside them is not studied: only a phenomenological description of their consequences on the particles connected through them is sought.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this course, we consider four intermediate elements between particles:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;springs&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: the forces introduced between two particles come from their deformation; these forces can be attractive or repulsive (in this case, they can be conditioned by the guiding of the element so that they do not bend laterally), and they allow relative movements between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of any sign.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;dampers&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: they introduce forces, often associated with the viscosity of fluids, opposed to the relative motion between &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{P}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{Q}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;; in the absence of initial relative motion (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\rho}_\mathrm{inic}=0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), these elements do not introduce any force.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;linear actuators&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: their operation is based on various phenomena, depending on whether they are hydraulic, pneumatic, electric or magnetic; they exert forces that can be predetermined (that is, known along time: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{acc.lin}(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; they are data in the problem) or forces that are suitable to control a predetermined relative motion &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\rho}(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;,  either an approaching or a separating motion.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inextensible threads&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;:  they prevent the particles from separating (impedeixen &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\rho} &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; )but not from approaching (they allow &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\rho} &amp;lt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).  Since they are intermediate elements that forbid movement, the force they introduce is called &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;restriction or constraint force&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; classifies the interactions between particles considered in this course, according to whether they are direct or indirect, formulable or non-formulable.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==D2.3 Gravitational attraction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The gravitational interaction force (law of universal gravitation) was formulated by Newton. It is an attraction force, and is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between particles (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). It is an empirical formulation: it is based on astronomical observations accumulated over many years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D2-4-eng.png|200px|thumb|center|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.4&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Formulation of the gravitational attraction force.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{G}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the constant of universal gravitation, and its value is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{G}_0=6,67\cdot 10^{-11} \mathrm{m}^3/(\mathrm{Kg}\cdot \mathrm{s}^2)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The distance between particles (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) must be expressed as a function of the coordinates that have been chosen to describe the system configuration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

--------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D2.4 Interaction through springs==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Springs introduce attractive or repulsive forces between their ends depending on their deformation. From their natural length &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho_\mathrm{nat}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (for which no force is produced between the spring ends), an elongation (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho-\rho_\mathrm{nat} &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) causes attractive forces while a shortening (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho-\rho_\mathrm{nat} &amp;lt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) causes repulsive forces.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mathematical formulation of these forces is obtained empirically from tests that measure the force as a function of the length change. Usually, we start from a static configuration in which the spring length &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; does not have to coincide with the natural one. If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho_0 &amp;gt; \rho_\mathrm{nat}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , the force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; between the spring ends for that configuration is attractive. Otherwise, (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rho_0 &amp;lt; \rho_\mathrm{nat}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a repulsive force.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The linear springs considered in this course have a linear behaviour: The variation in force &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta\mathrm{F}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; from the reference value (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{F}-\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) )is proportional to the variation in length &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta\rho=\rho-\rho_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; through a constant k.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A spring that is part of a mechanical system can introduce attractive and repulsive forces throughout its operation. Despite this, these forces are drawn with a single criterion (attractive or repulsive), and are formulated so that their value can have a positive or negative sign. In this way, both attractive and repulsive forces can be reproduced with a single drawing (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.5&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

For &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{x}_1=\mathrm{x}_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; ,  the spring is stretched and the force it exerts between its ends is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{x}_1=\mathrm{x}_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , the spring length is L and the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; force is attractive. For &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{x}_1 \neq \mathrm{x}_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the length increases and so does the attraction force.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The expression of the spring force for a general configuration as an attractive force is:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{at}^\mathrm{molla}=\mathrm{F}_0+k\Delta\rho=\mathrm{F}_0 + k [\rho(\mathrm{x}_1 \neq \mathrm{x}_2)-\rho(\mathrm{x}_1=\mathrm{x}_2)]=\mathrm{F}_0 + k[\sqrt{\mathrm{L}^2+(\mathrm{x}_1-\mathrm{x}_2)^2}-\mathrm{L}]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--------&lt;br /&gt;
--------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==D2.5 Interaction through dampers==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Linear dampers introduce attractive or repulsive forces between their ends depending on their deformation rate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\rho}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. When the ends of the damper separate, the force is attractive; when they approach, it is repulsive. Unlike springs, dampers do not exert any force between their ends in static situations.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force associated with linear dampers with linear behaviour is proportional to that speed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\dot{\rho}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{at}^\mathrm{amort}=c\dot{\rho}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; , &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{rep}^\mathrm{amort}=-c\dot{\rho}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In mechanical systems, dampers often appear in parallel with a spring. In that case, the force is formulated according to the criterion that has been chosen for the spring. When they are not part of a spring-damper group, the criterion is set arbitrarily.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==D2.6 Interaction through actuators==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Linear actuators appear in the vast majority of mechanical systems, and are responsible for controlling their motion. As they are elements based on phenomena that are not strictly mechanical, their formulation in the context of Newtonian dynamics is not possible. The treatment given to them is different from that of other intermediate elements. Two situations are considered:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The force introduced between their ends is data of the problem: this means that its value over time is known: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{lin.ac}=\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{lin.ac}(\ts)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The movement they produce, in that case, is an unknown of the problem (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.6a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The force introduced between their ends is the required on to guarantee a predetermined motion. In that case, that force is an unknown (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.6b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;

(a) the force it introduces is data, and the resulting motion is an unknown; (b) the motion it controls is predetermined, and the force required to produce it is an unknown.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==D2.7 Constraint interactions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Constraint forces restrict relative motions between particles, between particles and surfaces, or between rigid bodies. These forces arise from small deformations of the intermediate elements connecting the particles, from local deformations of the surface or of the rigid body, respectively. This course deals with the dynamics of rigid bodies, therefore these deformations (and the associated interaction forces) cannot be formulated: they are unknowns of the dynamic problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Constraint forces adapt themselves to guarantee the restrictions, but always within permitted ranges. Beyond those ranges, we say that the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;limit condition&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; has been exceeded, the restriction disappears and either the constraint force is replaced by a formulable force or the interaction disappears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When a system includes constraints, it is necessary to characterize them. That means investigating the direction the associated forces can have, and the associated limit conditions. That direction is that of the kinematic restrictions to be guaranteed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section deals with the characterization of indirect constraints between particles through a thread, and of direct constraints between a particle and a rigid body. Constraints between rigid bodies (both direct and indirect) are covered in &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D3. Interactions between rigid solids#|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unit D3&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Indirect constraint through inextensible threads===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextensible threads of negligible mass are intermediate elements that prevent particles from separating but not from approaching each other.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let us consider two particles &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; connected by a thread. If a force is exerted on each particle by hand in the right direction to try to separate them, the thread introduces a force in the opposite direction to prevent it: that is the constraint force transmitted between &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; through the thread, and it is a traction force. If the forces of the hands on the particles are in the opposite direction, the thread slackens and is not able to guarantee the restriction: through the thread, one particle can pull the other but cannot push it. Therefore, the traction force cannot be negative: if after solving a problem the conclusion is that the force required to maintain the restriction through the thread has to be negative &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{thread}&amp;lt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, this indicates that the constraint is not acting any more (the thread has lost tension, and that is equivalent to not having thread, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.7a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). It is a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;unilateral link&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, the thread allows the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) motion on a spherical surface with centre &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;): in the directions tangent to these surfaces, the thread cannot introduce any force (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.7b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;). In other words: the constraint force is orthogonal to the allowed relative motion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{P}} \cdot \overline{\mathbf{V}}_{\mathrm{RTQ }}(\mathbf{P})=0, \overline{\mathbf{F}}_{\rightarrow \mathrm{Q}} \cdot \overline{\mathbf{V}}_{\mathrm{RTP }}(\mathbf{Q})=0 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D2-7-eng.png|500px|thumb|center|link=]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.7&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Characterization and limit condition of an indirect constraint through an inextensible thread.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The limit condition for this type of constraint is set by the breaking limit of the thread: for each type of material, there is a force (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{break}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) at which the thread breaks. If, when solving a dynamics problem involving a thread, we detect that the force to guarantee the constraint is higher than this limit value (&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{thread}}&amp;gt;\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{break}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;), the problem must be solved again without the thread (and that increases the number of DoF of the system under study).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Direct constraint between a particle P and a smooth rigid body S===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A rigid body S in contact with a particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is an obstacle for certain movements of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The constraint force of S on P is the dynamic description of that obstacle. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The kinematic analysis of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to characterize the constraint force is done from S, which is the element responsible for this force. Thus, the directions of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;s movements for which S constitutes an obstacle are emphasized: they are the directions for which the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; velocity is zero.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.8&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; presents the characterization of the contact between &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and S when the rigid body is smooth. It is a unilateral constraint: the constraint force on the particle in the direction normal to the surface at the contact point can only be repulsive, since it is not capable of retaining the particle if some other interaction wants to pull it away from the rigid body. As for indirect constraints between particles through &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.7 Constraint interactions|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;inextensible threads&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]]&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;, there is an orthogonality condition between the constraint force and the allowed velocity of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; relative to S. The existence of sliding implies that the movement of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; relative to S is allowed in any direction of the plane tangent to the S at the contact point: the contact does not introduce any force component in those directions.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Direct constraint between a particle P and a rough rigid body S===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the surface of the rigid body S is rough and the particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; does not slide on it (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.9&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), the constraint force can have nonzero components in both tangential directions. Unlike the normal force, these components can have any sign, but their resultant cannot exceed a maximum value &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sqrt{\Fs_1^2 + \Fs_2^2}\leq\Fs_{\text{t, max}}^{\text{constraing}}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. In the dry friction model, that value depends on the roughness: the rougher the surface, the higher the maximum value ([[D2. Interaction forces between particles#D2.8 Friction|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;D2.8 Friction&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;]].&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==D2.8 Friction==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When particle &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; moves relative to the rough surface of the rigid body S, the tangential force is not a constraint force but a friction force, and always opposes the speed of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; relative to S:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Fs}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow\Ps}^\text{friction} = -|\vec{\Fs}_{\mathrm{S}\rightarrow\Ps}^\text{friction}|\frac{\vel{P}{S}}{|\vel{P}{S}|}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several models for formulating the value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Fs}_{\Ss\rightarrow\Ps}^\text{friction}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, depending on the characteristics of the contact between &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and S.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Coulomb’s dry friction model&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The surface roughness of S is described through friction coefficients. When the roughness is isotropic (equal in all directions) two friction coefficients are defined:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* static friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\es&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: it defines the maximum value (limit condition) of the tangential constraint force: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\vec{\Fs}_\text{t, max}^\text{constraint} = \mu_\es\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. If a force higher than &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\es \Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is needed to guarantee that &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;P&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; does not slide on S, sliding occurs and the friction force appears (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.10a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* kinetic friction coefficient &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mu_\ds&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;: it defines the value of the friction force : &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\vec{\Fs}_{\Ss\rightarrow\Ps}^\text{friction}| = \mu_\ds\Ns&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Figure D2.10b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;text-decoration: underline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Viscous friction model&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a very suitable model when there is some lubrication between P and S. The friction force is formulated as a function of the relative speed between the two. If it is a linear model: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;|\vec{\Fs}_{\Ss\rightarrow\Ps}^\text{friction}| = \cs|\vel{P}{S}|&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
