| Dynamic Simulation Software | ||||||||||
| freeCAD | A fully functional free Dynamic Simulation Software.
Mechanisms are represented by connected or assembled
joints of 3D solids with defined constraints, actuators,
springs, dampers or forces. In addition to pure geometric
and connection information, mass, moment of inertia,
gravity, force and
torque information are also modeled and used to predict
the motion according to Newton's Laws. Animation using
the simulated data produces realistic dynamic behaviour
of the system under study. @1MB Created by: Aik-Siong Koh. Screenshot | |||||||||
| Watt | A refreshing approach to Mechanism Design courtesy Heron
Technologies, which rather than analyzing an existing
mechanism, can be used to create mechanisms based on
required co-ordinate movement, constraints on pivot
locations, transmission coefficients, accelerations,
dimensions etc. An excellent program that offers
solutions to user specifications rather as against the
old painful approach of trying to find out the right
mechanism that works. Very easy to use friendly Windows
interface, however the "Save" is crippled. @1.3MB Created by Heron Technologies Screen Shot | |||||||||

| OMDForSimulink | Dynamics engine for modeling multibody mechanical systems. It is set up to be used with Simulink which is not free. Can be used without Simulink if you're prepared to make the effort using some free visualization tool. Created by John Kollman | |||||||||
| Universal Mechanism | Simulation of kinematics and dynamics of planar and spatial mechanical systems.
Mechanical systems are described by means of representing them as systems of rigid bodies connected by various
kinematical pairs and force elements (multibody systems). Online animation of motion and plots of dynamical
performances are available during simulation. There are lots of measurable dynamical performances of
mechanical systems: linear and angular coordinates, velocities and accelerations, active forces and moments, reaction forces etc. Created by: Universal Mechanism Screen Shot | |||||||||
