MMM (Milliken Moment Model) Lecture by Blake Christierson

Harshit:

  • What is a DOF (degree of freedom) is a set of independent properties but the set doesn’t have to be all unique

  • Parameters are things that you are designing for

  • States are denoted as “u“ and the u E U means that the state u in a set of U’s where there are about 3 to 20 set of U’s that you are defining?

    • A state is basically the way that the car is like Heave, Pitch, Roll, Warp

  • What are things that are hard to change (mass) and what are things that you can change easily?

  • Control is things that you can control when the car is out like throttle or steering

  • Quantities of Interest like scores

  • := means defines

    • can be done in Python called walrus operator

  • Ps defines a set of the x,y,z positions along with the yaw, pitch, and roll parameters

  • Inertia Tensor how resistant to rotation a rigid body might be

    • A 3x3 matrix which is only 6 numbers because the other numbers are rotated across

  • A vector is a 1 tensor, a matrix is a 2 tensor, and so on and so forth about what 3 tensor or higher order tensor means

  •
