ASOMmini Example “Umbrella”
This example video shows how a typical umbrella can be modeled and analyzed kinematically in ASOMmini. The umbrella is opened automatically by a pressure spring, which is installed between the two movable sliders.

ASOM v7 Example “Umbrella”
In this video the example of a typical umbrella is used to demonstrate how to purposefully create variations of a kinematic system in ASOM in order to find better solutions. For this purpose not only single elements but also groups of elements can be moved together, if necessary also restricted to only the X or […]
Rear spoiler design with ASOM v7: six-bar linkage with 3 planes (part 2)
Although our six-bar syntheses strictly speaking only allow the specification of 2 plane conditions (plane = point and angle), it is still possible to design six-bar linkages in ASOM v7 to fulfill 3 (or in principle even more) plane conditions. Instead of using scripts to create only numeric displays in expressions, as shown in our […]

Four-bar system and manual force in ASOMmini
Use the new manual force element in ASOMmini (version 1.1 and higher) to see in real time how the necessary manual force to drive your system with its pre-defined motion profile develops while changes are made.
Complex planar multi-bar linkage in ASOMmini
The example shows an arbitrary multi-bar linkage with various rotary joints and sliding joints.
