Chrono MBS module tutorials

Tutorials that teach how to use the Chrono CORE modulearrow-up-right for multibody system analysis.

The following are some examples to get started with Chrono. These demos require the IRRLICHT run-time visualization module, with some of them optionally using the VSG run-time visualization module.

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_crank The simplest MBS example: the skeleton of a slider-crank mechanism.

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_fourbar Create a four bar linkage and display it with simple lines

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_collision Learn how to setup collisions in Chrono with this introductory example

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_bricks Simulate collisions between a wrecking ball and a wall (Irrlicht or VSG run-time visualization)

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_pendulum Simulate articulated pendulums that interact with a force field

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_motors Different ways of using motors in Chrono

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_gears Create a transmission made of pulleys, spur gears, bevel gears.

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_mecanum Create a robot with omnidirectional wheels; learn coordinate transformations

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_friction Learn how to enable rolling and spinning friction (Irrlicht or VSG run-time visualization)

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_suspension Create a very simplified vehicle model with suspensions

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_tracks Simulate a vehicle with tracks interacting with obstacles, and that can be driven by the user

  • @subpage tutorial_demo_conveyor Demonstration of the conveyor belt primitive.
