Basic Motion Simulation Guide

Basic Motion can be used to simulate the effects of motors, springs, collisions and gravity on assemblies by taking mass into account for relatively fast calculations. To create a Basic Motion simulation, select Basic Motion from the MotionManager type of study list, add simulation elements using toolbar tools, calculate the simulation, and play it from the start. Contact between components is ignored unless 3D solid body contact is specified.

Basic Motion Overview


You can use Basic Motion for approximating the effects of motors, springs,
collisions, and gravity on assemblies. Basic Motion takes mass into account in
calculating motion. Basic Motion computation is relatively fast, so you can use this
for creating presentation-worthy animations using physics-based simulations. PARENT TOPIC

4. Click Play from Start (MotionManager toolbar) to play the simulation


from the start.

z Contact between components is ignored unless you specify three-


dimensional solid body contact. If you do not specify contact, components in
contact pass through each other in the animation.
z When you record a simulation, components with in-context references may
move if you do not fully define their position.
