Chapter 3 – Kinematics Definition: (a) The branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces that cause the motion. (b) The features or properties of motion in an object, regarded in such a way. “Kinematics can be used to find the possible range of motion for a given mechanism, or, working in reverse, can be used to design a mechanism that has a desired range of motion. The movement of a crane and the oscillations of a piston in an engine are both simple kinematic systems. The crane is a type of open kinematic chain, while the piston is part of a closed four‐bar linkage.” Distinguished from dynamics, e.g. F = ma Several considerations: 3.2 – 3.2.2 How do wheels motions affect robot motion (HW 2) 3.2.3 Wheel constraints (rolling and sliding) for Fixed standard wheel Steered standard wheel Castor wheel Swedish wheel Spherical wheel 3.2.4 Combine effects of all the wheels to determine the constraints on the robot. “Given a mobile robot with M wheels…” 3.2.5 Two examples drawn from 3.2.4: Differential drive. Yields same result as in 3.2 (HW 2) Omnidrive (3 Swedish wheels) Conclusion (pp. 76‐77): “We can see from the preceding examples that robot motion can be predicted by combining the rolling constraints of individual wheels.” “The sliding constraints can be used to …evaluate the maneuverability and workspace of the robot rather than just its predicted motion.” 3.3 Mobility and (vs.) Maneuverability Mobility: ability to directly move in the environment. “In addition…a mobile robot [or any machine] is able to further manipulate its position OVER TIME, by steering steerable wheels.” Consider moving your bicycle from a starting position to a pose which is exactly parallel but 1 meter to the left. “the overall maneuverability of a robot is thus a combination of the mobility available based on the kinematic sliding constraints of the standard wheels, plus the additional freedom contributed by steering and spinning the steerable standard wheels.” ICR – instantaneous center of rotation Ackerman steering Degree of steerability. 3.4 Workspace: all possible configurations (poses). Velocity space: independent components of velocity the robot can control. Also called DDOF = differential degrees of freedom. Example: Unicycle‐ velocity space has two axes, one for forward speed, one for rotation. Path & trajectory. See example pp. 88‐89 .

1 the Principle of Wave–Particle Duality: an Overview
3 1 The Principle of Wave–Particle Duality: An Overview 1.1 Introduction In the year 1900, physics entered a period of deep crisis as a number of peculiar phenomena, for which no classical explanation was possible, began to appear one after the other, starting with the famous problem of blackbody radiation. By 1923, when the “dust had settled,” it became apparent that these peculiarities had a common explanation. They revealed a novel fundamental principle of nature that wascompletelyatoddswiththeframeworkofclassicalphysics:thecelebrated principle of wave–particle duality, which can be phrased as follows. The principle of wave–particle duality: All physical entities have a dual character; they are waves and particles at the same time. Everything we used to regard as being exclusively a wave has, at the same time, a corpuscular character, while everything we thought of as strictly a particle behaves also as a wave. The relations between these two classically irreconcilable points of view—particle versus wave—are , h, E = hf p = (1.1) or, equivalently, E h f = ,= . (1.2) h p In expressions (1.1) we start oﬀ with what we traditionally considered to be solely a wave—an electromagnetic (EM) wave, for example—and we associate its wave characteristics f and (frequency and wavelength) with the corpuscular charac- teristics E and p (energy and momentum) of the corresponding particle. Conversely, in expressions (1.2), we begin with what we once regarded as purely a particle—say, an electron—and we associate its corpuscular characteristics E and p with the wave characteristics f and of the corresponding wave.

Kinematics Big Ideas and Equations Position Vs
Kinematics Big Ideas and Equations Position vs. Time graphs Big Ideas: A straight line on a p vs t graph indicates constant speed (and velocity) An object at rest is indicated by a horizontal line The slope of a line on a p vs. t graph = velocity of the object (steeper = faster) The main difference between speed and velocity is that velocity incorporates direction o Speed will always be positive but velocity can be positive or negative o Positive vs. Negative slopes indicates the direction; toward the positive end of an axis (number line) or the negative end. For motion detectors this indicates toward (-) and away (+), but only because there is no negative side to the axis. An object with continuously changing speed will have a curved P vs. t graph; (curving steeper – speeding up, curving flatter – slowing down) (Instantaneous) velocity = average velocity if P vs. t is a (straight) line. Velocity vs Time graphs Big Ideas: The velocity can be found by calculating the slope of a position-time graph Constant velocity on a velocity vs. time graph is indicated with a horizontal line. Changing velocity is indicated by a line that slopes up or down. Speed increases when Velocity graph slopes away from v=0 axis. Speed decreases when velocity graph slopes toward v=0 axis. The velocity is negative if the object is moving toward the negative end of the axis - if the final position is less than the initial position (or for motion detectors if the object moves toward the detector) The slope of a velocity vs.

Newtonian Mechanics Is Most Straightforward in Its Formulation and Is Based on Newton’S Second Law
CLASSICAL MECHANICS D. A. Garanin September 30, 2015 1 Introduction Mechanics is part of physics studying motion of material bodies or conditions of their equilibrium. The latter is the subject of statics that is important in engineering. General properties of motion of bodies regardless of the source of motion (in particular, the role of constraints) belong to kinematics. Finally, motion caused by forces or interactions is the subject of dynamics, the biggest and most important part of mechanics. Concerning systems studied, mechanics can be divided into mechanics of material points, mechanics of rigid bodies, mechanics of elastic bodies, and mechanics of fluids: hydro- and aerodynamics. At the core of each of these areas of mechanics is the equation of motion, Newton's second law. Mechanics of material points is described by ordinary differential equations (ODE). One can distinguish between mechanics of one or few bodies and mechanics of many-body systems. Mechanics of rigid bodies is also described by ordinary differential equations, including positions and velocities of their centers and the angles defining their orientation. Mechanics of elastic bodies and fluids (that is, mechanics of continuum) is more compli- cated and described by partial differential equation. In many cases mechanics of continuum is coupled to thermodynamics, especially in aerodynamics. The subject of this course are systems described by ODE, including particles and rigid bodies. There are two limitations on classical mechanics. First, speeds of the objects should be much smaller than the speed of light, v c, otherwise it becomes relativistic mechanics. Second, the bodies should have a sufficiently large mass and/or kinetic energy.

Motion and Forces Notes Key Speed • to Describe How Fast Something Is Traveling, You Have to Know Two Things About Its Motion
Motion and Forces Notes Key Speed • To describe how fast something is traveling, you have to know two things about its motion. • One is the distance it has traveled, or how far it has gone. • The other is how much time it took to travel that distance. Average Speed • To calculate average speed, divide the distance traveled by the time it takes to travel that distance. • Speed Equation Average speed (in m/s) = distance traveled (in m) divided by time (in s) it took to travel the distance s = d t • Because average speed is calculated by dividing distance by time, its units will always be a distance unit divided by a time unit. • For example, the average speed of a bicycle is usually given in meters per second. • Average speed is useful if you don't care about the details of the motion. • When your motion is speeding up and slowing down, it might be useful to know how fast you are going at a certain time. Instantaneous Speed • The instantaneous speed is the speed of an object at any instant of time. Constant Speed • Sometimes an object is moving such that its instantaneous speed doesn’t change. • When the instantaneous speed doesn't change, an object is moving with constant speed. • The average speed and the instantaneous speed are the same. Calculating Distance • If an object is moving with constant speed, then the distance it travels over any period of time can be calculated using the equation for average speed. • When both sides of this equation are multiplied by the time, you have the equation for distance.

Gravity, Orbital Motion, and Relativity
Gravity, Orbital Motion,& Relativity Early Astronomy Early Times • As far as we know, humans have always been interested in the motions of objects in the sky. • Not only did early humans navigate by means of the sky, but the motions of objects in the sky predicted the changing of the seasons, etc. • There were many early attempts both to describe and explain the motions of stars and planets in the sky. • All were unsatisfactory, for one reason or another. The Earth-Centered Universe • A geocentric (Earth-centered) solar system is often credited to Ptolemy, an Alexandrian Greek, although the idea is very old. • Ptolemy’s solar system could be made to fit the observational data pretty well, but only by becoming very complicated. Copernicus’ Solar System • The Polish cleric Copernicus proposed a heliocentric (Sun centered) solar system in the 1500’s. Objections to Copernicus How could Earth be moving at enormous speeds when we don’t feel it? . (Copernicus didn’t know about inertia.) Why can’t we detect Earth’s motion against the background stars (stellar parallax)? Copernicus’ model did not fit the observational data very well. Galileo • Galileo Galilei - February15,1564 – January 8, 1642 • Galileo became convinced that Copernicus was correct by observations of the Sun, Venus, and the moons of Jupiter using the newly-invented telescope. • Perhaps Galileo was motivated to understand inertia by his desire to understand and defend Copernicus’ ideas. Orbital Motion Tycho and Kepler • In the late 1500’s, a Danish nobleman named Tycho Brahe set out to make the most accurate measurements of planetary motions to date, in order to validate his own ideas of planetary motion.

The Von Neumann/Stapp Approach
4. The von Neumann/Stapp Approach Von Neumann quantum theory is a formulation in which the entire physical universe, including the bodies and brains of the conscious human participant/observers, is represented in the basic quantum state, which is called the state of the universe. The state of a subsystem, such as a brain, is formed by averaging (tracing) this basic state over all variables other than those that describe the state of that subsystem. The dynamics involves three processes. Process 1 is the choice on the part of the experimenter about how he will act. This choice is sometimes called “The Heisenberg Choice,” because Heisenberg emphasized strongly its crucial role in quantum dynamics. At the pragmatic level it is a “free choice,” because it is controlled, at least in practice, by the conscious intentions of the experimenter/participant, and neither the Copenhagen nor von Neumann formulations provide any description of the causal origins of this choice, apart from the mental intentions of the human agent. Each intentional action involves an effort that is intended to result in a conceived experiential feedback, which can be an immediate confirmation of the success of the action, or a delayed monitoring the experiential consequences of the action. Process 2 is the quantum analog of the equations of motion of classical physics. As in classical physics, these equations of motion are local (i.e., all interactions are between immediate neighbors) and deterministic. They are obtained from the classical equations by a certain quantization procedure, and are reduced to the classical equations by taking the classical approximation of setting to zero the value of Planck’s constant everywhere it appears.

Translation : A motion is said to be a translation if any straight line inside the body keeps the same direction during the motion. It can also be observed that in a translation all the particles forming the body move along parallel paths. If these paths are straight lines. The motion is said to be a rectilinear translation (Fig 1); If the paths are curved lines, the motion is a curvilinear translation.
