The present investigation shows a kinematic analysis of Baumgartner’s stratospheric jump, based on a scientific report by Red Bull. The modeling was carried out using the different forces that intervened in the event (velocity, acceleration, etc.), making it possible to generate a mathematical model capable of extrapolating data and allowing us a better appreciation of such scientific achievement. All the mathematical exploration has been carried out with ten decimal places; however, they will be rounded to four in writing. The action plan was based on obtaining the velocities by placing points on a velocity model belonging to an approximate graph of a Red Bull scientific report, which was put into the GeoGebra Classic 5 program to find the velocities. After this, we proceeded to find the accelerations and the formula of the function that models them. Finally, this formula was integrated to acquire the mathematical model of the velocities.

In this paper, the kinematics of 5-UPS parallel machine tool is analyzed, and a kinematic analysis method combining kinematic analysis and computer kinematics software is proposed. Under the premise that the parallel machine tool sector parameters is known, firstly we use the vector method to establish a mathematical model of inverse kinematics, and in accordance with a U-shaped processing trajectory the inverse solution is calculated; Secondly, three-dimensional model of the parallel machine tool is modeled in Adams, and kinematic constraints are set correctly; Finally, the inverse kinematics solution of the mathematical model is used as the Adams drive input, then the positive solutions is carried out. Compared through the Adams simulation results with U-machining path, it is verified that the inverse solution of the mathematical model and parallel machine tool bodies both are correct, it has certain significance for Parallel machine tools and other parallel robot kinematics analysis.

Urgency of the research. The use of computers in technical practice leads to the extension of the possibility of solving mathematical models. This makes it possible to gradually automate complex calculations of equations of mathematical models. It is necessary to input the relevant inputs of the mathematical model, to build a simulation computer model and to monitor and evaluate the output results using a computer's output device. Target setting. The possibilities of modeling a four-bar linkage mechanism by classical analytical methods and methodsusing computer modeling are presented in this paper.The problem is to describe the creation of a computer model and to show the mathematical model and its solution in the classical ways. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. The inspiration for the creation of the article was the study of the mechanisms in the work [1-3] and the study of other resources available in library and journal materials, as well as prepared study materials for students of Technical university Kosice. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. The question of building a real mechanism model. The possibilities to building a real model, based on the result of simulation. The research objective. The aim of this paper is to develop a functional model of the mechanism in ADAMS/View and Matlab and its complete kinematic analysis.The statement of basic materials.The task was to create a computer model in MSC Adams and Matlab and to perform a four-bar linkage mechanism kinematic analysis. At the same time the classical procedure of analytical methods of kinematic analysis was described. Kinematic сharacteristics of driven members and their selected points were determined. The movement of the parts of the mechanism in its significant points was analyzed. The results of the solution were shown in both programs in graphical form. Kinematic analysis was performed by both vector and graphical methods. Finally, the results with a graphical representation of parameters such as angular displacement, angular velocity and angular acceleration of mechanism members are presented in this work. The results of these solutions are created in the form of graphs. To ensure that the results do not differ from the model real, a good computer model gradually was created by its verification and modification, which is one of the advantages of MSC Adams. The practical applicability of the mathematical model was limited by the existence of an analytical solution. Conclusions. The development of computer technology has expanded the limit of solvability of mathematical models and made it possible to gradually automate the calculation of equations of mathematical models. In a computer model the auto-mated calculation can be treated as a real object sample. In various variations of calculation, we can monitor and measure the behavior of an object under different conditions, under the influence of different inputs. Graphical and vector methods were used for classical analytical methods. MSC Adams and Matlab were used for the automated calculations.

This paper investigates the stiffness characteristics of an origami-type carton, which can be modeled into an equivalent mechanism by considering creases as revolute joints and panels as links. Stiffness characteristics of a single crease is investigated regarding its relationships with folding angular velocity and crease length. Based on the kinematic analysis of carton folding, the aggregated stiffness is obtained by integrating the individual crease stiffness into the equivalent mechanism. Finally experiment results of carton folding manipulation are obtained, and comparisons between the mathematical model and experimental data show that the model predicts the carton’s behaviour well.

An input-output equation of degree 24 is derived for a spatial 7R mechanism with consecutive pair axes intersecting. This mechanism is essentially the mathematical model for the kinematic analysis of a lobster’s arm which is an open 6R chain with mutually perpendicular consecutive pair axes, the geometry of which was first described by Willis [4] in 1841. The analysis of this special 7R mechanism constitutes a major step towards the solution of the general 7R mechanism with seven axes arbitrarily oriented in space.

In any economy there is a need for the bulky goods transportation which cannot be divided into smaller parts. Such cargoes include building structures, elements of industrial equipment, tracked or wheeled construction and agricultural machinery, heavy armored military vehicles. In any case, tractor-semitrailer should provide fast delivery of goods with minimal fuel consumption. In order to guarantee the goods delivery, tractor-semitrailers must be able to overcome the existing roads broken grade and be capable to tow a semi-trailer in off-road conditions. These properties are especially important for military equipment transportation. The important factor that determines a tractor-semitrailer mobility is its gradeability. The purpose of this work is to improve a tractor-semitrailer mobility with tractor units manufactured at PJSC “AutoKrAZ” by increasing the tractor-semitrailer gradeability. The customer requirements for a new tractor are determined by the maximizing the grade to 18°. The analysis of the characteristics of modern tractor-semitrailers for heavy haulage has shown that the highest rate of this grade is 16.7°. The factors determining the limiting gradeability value were analyzed, based on the tractor-semitrailer with a KrAZ-6510TE tractor and a semi-trailer with a full weight of 80 t. It has been developed a mathematical model to investigate the tractor and semi-trailer axles vertical reactions distribution on the tractor-semitrailer friction performances. The mathematical model has allowed to calculate the gradeability value that the tractor-semitrailer can overcome in case of wheels and road surface friction value and the tractive force magnitude from the engine. The mathematical model adequacy was confirmed by comparing the calculations results with the data of factory tests. The analysis showed that on a dry road the KrAZ-6510TE tractor with a 80 t gross weight semitrailer is capable to climb a gradient of 14,35 ° with its coupling mass full use condition. The engine's maximum torque allows the tractor-semitrailer to overcome a gradient of 10.45° It has been determined the ways to improve the design of the KrAZ-6510TE tractor to increase its gradeability. Keywords: tractor, tractor-semitrailer vehicle mobility, tractor-semitrailer vehicle gradeability.
