The most-recently added worksheet demonstrates the solution of a three degree of freedom multibody system.

Thought of the Day

I find the interaction between a user and maths & simulation software fascinating. Once a user is sufficiently skilled, their thinking and thought processes are shaped by the package they are most familar in. I for example think in terms of Mathcad, while a friend thinks in terms of Matlab.
