Planar kinematic modelling is a type of mathematical tool used to describe and analyze the motion of objects in a two-dimensional space. It involves using mathematical equations and diagrams to represent the position, velocity, and acceleration of objects as they move.
Planar kinematic modelling is specifically focused on motion in a two-dimensional space, whereas other types of kinematic modelling may involve motion in three-dimensional space or may include other factors such as forces and dynamics.
Planar kinematic modelling is commonly used in engineering and physics to analyze the motion of mechanical systems, such as robots and vehicles. It is also used in computer graphics and animation to create realistic movement for virtual objects.
Planar kinematic modelling involves using a variety of equations, including equations for position, velocity, and acceleration, as well as equations for circular motion and projectile motion. These equations are typically derived from principles of geometry, trigonometry, and calculus.
One limitation of planar kinematic modelling is that it only considers motion in a two-dimensional space, so it may not accurately represent the motion of objects in real-world situations that involve three-dimensional movement. Additionally, it does not take into account external forces or factors that may affect the motion of objects, such as friction or air resistance.
