...These are simulated motor drives that can be used in an application that simulates a devices that has motors that need to be controlled. A vdrive has the following basic properties: - position - velocity - status: stopped or moving - destination and the following extra properties: - a brake that is active or released - an activation flag - a maximum movement time - a name A vdrive can receive a *command*. These commands are currently known: - STOP : stop the vdrive - START: start moving to destination - SETBRAKE

3D vehicle simulator in which vechicle's configuration as a whole (articulated body) , is represented by a 'vector' of generalised coordinates. so concepts like usual position and orientation of main body and wheels is all defined by the generalised coordinates.Using Lagrangian dynamics, theese coordinates are evolving in time in a realistic manner according to F=ma but as if there were also all constraint forces concretasing the presence of joints: hinge, prismatic, rigid connection, etc. all derivatives are done with finite differences, so it's all simple. in 3 videos I explain all the mechanics and its simulation up to this simple but pow method.Pure Lagrangian mechanics until now has not been used much or at all,in simulation videogames,but i decided to try it because it was promising, very simple compared to the fnal results, and there was not much docu on its use in simulation games: this lack was completed now. ...

Desktop gadget (Windows only). The simulation of a real horizontal sundial, dependent on a geographic position (latitude). Size can be chosen between big and small. It can use current (computer) time, or user-specified date&time.
