AIM: To write a program in Matlab to simulate the forward kinematics of a 2R Robotic Arm OBJECTIVES: To generate plot for various positions of the links in the Robotic arm. To create a movie of the positions of the links. Description:  A robotic arm is a type of mechanical arm, usually programmable, with…

AIM: To Determine Thermal Efficiency of Otto cycle. P-V plot in MATLAB. DESCRIPTION: An Otto cycle is an idealized themodynamic cycle that describes the functioning of a typical spark igntion piston engine. The Otto cycle consists of isentropic compression, heat addition at constant volume, isentropic expansion,…

AIM: To write a program that solves the ordinary differential equation that represents the motion of the simple pendulum with damping INPUTS: The ODE that needs to be solved: `(d^2theta)/dt^2+b/m*(d theta)/dt+g/l*sin theta=0` PROGRAM: % Simulate the transient behaviour of a simple pendulum and to create an animation of…

AIM: To write a code to fit the linear and cubic polynomial for specific heat data. COMMANDS USED: 1. Load: It was used to load the data of the file into the matlab 2. p = polyfit(x,y,n) returns the coefficients for a polynomial p(x) of degree n that is a best fit (in a least-squares sense) for…

AIM: To write a code in MATLAB to optimise the stalagmite function and finding the global maxima  THEORY: Genetic Algorithm GA: It is the method for solving optimisation problem by the use of random sampling.It generates the population of points at each iteration. The best point in the population approches an optimal…

AIM: To write a code that extracts the NASA thermodynamic data from the file and also calculating the molecular weight of the species present in the file.  OBJECTIVES: Displaying the molecular weight of the species Creating plot for specific heat, enthalpy,entropy againg temperature ranges and saving them in a separate…
