Kinematic Analysis of the Draglink Mechanism Using the Newton Rhapson Iteration Method

Abstract

Position, speed, and acceleration analysis are all included in kinematic analysis. Vectors of location, velocity, and acceleration can be expressed analytically in the form of complex numbers using the Newton Rhapson Iteration Method. The location vector of the point to be investigated must be found first, and then the acceleration and velocity vectors must be found by differentiating against time. This study analyzes the relationship between the ?1 value and the ?2, ?3, ?4, ?5, and x2 values in a drag-link mechanism. The Newton-Raphson iteration method is employed for kinematic analysis to solve nonlinear equations. In this research, the analysis results indicate a correlation between the ?1 value and the ?2, ?3, ?4, ?5, and x2 values. As ?1 increases, the ?2, ?3, ?4, and ?5 values also proportionally increase. The x2 value is also influenced by changes in ?1. This study combines the Newton-Raphson iteration method with graphical analysis using CAD software. The conclusion of this research highlights a significant relationship between the ?1 value and the ?2, ?3, ?4, ?5, and x2 values in the drag-link mechanism. The analysis provides valuable insights for modeling, designing, or controlling systems involving these variables.
