# Questions tagged [dynamics]

Dynamics is a branch of applied mathematics (specifically classical mechanics) concerned with the study of forces and torques and their effect on motion, as opposed to kinematics, which studies the motion of objects without reference to its causes.

### How to solve this basic dynamics/inverse kinematics problem

Suppose I have a 6-DOF robot arm with revolute joints whose tooltip is at some position $\bf{r_0}$ and I want to move it through some trajectory ${\bf r}(t)$. For simplicity, assume there are just 2 ...

### Defining the specifications required by a 6DOF robot to impose a harmonic sinusoidal motion

Perhaps a bit of a simple question, but since I don't have a background in robotics/engineering, then I imagine this would be the perfect place to ask such a question. I am buying a 6-DOF Stewart ...
