A dynamic motion analysis of deformable rodlike objects as presented. In manufacturing processes, there are many manipulative operations which deal with deformable objects. Evaluation of the shapes of these objects is important for their manipulative operations because their deformation can cause both success of such operations if It is utilized effectively and their failure if the deformation is unexpected. Furthermore, if deformable objects are operated quickly, the dynamical effect, of them cannot be neglected when we evaluate their shapes. Thus, both static and dynamic analysis of objects deformation is required so that the shape of the objects can be evaluated on a computer in advance. In this paper we will analyse the dynamic deformation of deformable rodlike objects. First, a geometric representation to describe the shape. of a rodlike object with dynamic deformation is introduced. The potential and the kinetic energy of the object and the geometric constraints imposed on it are then formulated. The shape of the dynamically deforming object can be derived by minimizing the difference between the kinetic energy and the potential energy under the geometric constraints. Next, a procedure to compute the deformed shape is developed by use of Euler's approach. Finally, some numerical examples are shown in order to demonstrate how the proposed approach computes the shapes of deformed rodlike objects. |
