AnimateLinkage2D

AnimateLinkage2D[linkage, drvls]
generates a sequence of animation frames of linkage , while the linkage is interpolates through the driving variable vectors drvls. The function projects the frames of AnimateLinkage3D onto the X-Y plane.

MORE INFORMATION

AnimateLinakage2D function maps the Graphics3D objects generated by AnimateLinakage3D function to Graphics objects. These list of Graphics objects are animated with the ListAnimate function.

drvls is a list of base vectors of the driving variables. Every vector represent a point in the joint spcae spanned by the list of driving variables. Based on the Resolution option internal point are calculated using linear interpolation of the base vectors.The list of consecutive base/internal points of the driving variable vectors defines the frames of the animation.

Internal point generation for Resolution →10

AnimateLinakage2D function can accept options of AnimateLinkage3D and Graphics function.

Selected list of options:

Axes	True	Axes is an option for graphics functions that specifies whether axes should be drawn.
Frame	True	Frame is an option for Graphics, Grid and other constructs that specifies whether to include a frame.
GridLines	Automatic	GridLines is an option for two-dimensional graphics functions that specifies grid lines
GridLinesStyle	{}	GridLinesStyle is an option for 2D graphics functions that specifies how grid lines should be rendered.
ImageSize	Full	ImageSize is an option which specifies the overall size of an image to display for an object.
JointLimitCheck	False	JointLimitCheck is an option for SetDrivingVariables function, that switches on or off the limit check in case of the driving variables.
FilterDuplicateFrames	False	Removes identical frames from the animation sequence before display it.
JointMarkers	None	JointMarkers is an option for Linkage3D and AnimateLinkage3D function, that specifies the joint markers tob shown.
LinkGeometry	All	LinkGeometry is an option for Linkage3D and AnimateLinkage3D function, that defines the name of the links, of that the geometry should be displayed.
LinkMarkers	None	LinkMarkers is an option for Linkage3D and AnimateLinkage3D function, that defines the name of the links, of that the LLRF should be displayed.
MarkerAxesStyle	Automatic	MarkerAxesStyle is an option for Marker3D function, that defines the sytle of the axes. The style can contain a list of Arrow3D options.
MarkerLabels	{x, y, z}	MarkerLabels is an option for Marker3D function, that specifies the labels of the axes.
MarkerLabelStyle	{}	MarkerLabelStyle is an option for Marker3D function, that specifies the style of the marker labels.
MarkerSize	1	MarkerSize is an option for Marker3D function, that define the length of the axes of the marker.
MaxIterations	100	MaxIterations is an option that specifies the maximum number of iterations that should be tried in various built-in functions and algorithms.
Resolution	10	Resolution is an option for GetLinkageRules function,that specifies the number of interpolation points between two base point.
TracePoints	None	TracePoints is an option for AnimateLinkage3D function, that specifies the points of the linkage, of that trace should be displayed.
TraceStyle	Automatic	TraceStyle is an option for AnimateLinkage3D function, that defines the specifies style of the trace graphics.
TraceReferenceFrame	Automatic	specifies the link, whose LLRF is considered as the reference coordinate of the trace curves.
