A GUI-based (PyQt5) tool used to design 2D linkage mechanism.

  • Planar Linkages Simulation
  • Mechanical Synthesis
    • Number Synthesis: Combine the attributes of mechanism.
    • Structural Synthesis: Cython algorithm used to find out structural possibilities of the mechanism.
    • Dimensional Synthesis: Kernel from the three Cython algorithms (rewrite).
  • Websites
  • Others
    • Cross three platforms.
    • CAD-like user interface.
    • Auto layout of generalized chain.
    • The code is following with Python Enhancement Proposals (PEP):

If you have any question, please post on GitHub issue or contact [email protected].

Getting Started

Executables

Download portable executable file of your platform.

PyPI

pip install pyslvs-ui

Source

Branch master is in development, use stable branch to install stable dependencies directly.

git checkout stable
pip install -e .

There are more detailed instructions in the documentation.

Libraries

Pyslvs has a solver backend that can works without the GUI:

from pyslvs import example_list, parse_vpoints, t_config, expr_solving

# Get example with name
expr, inputs = example_list("Jansen's linkage (Single)")
# Parse the mechanism expression into a list of joint data
vpoints = parse_vpoints(expr)
# Config joint data and control data for the solver
exprs = t_config(vpoints, inputs)
# Solve the position
result = expr_solving(exprs, vpoints, {pair: 0. for pair in inputs})
# Get the result from joint 7
x, y = result[7]
print(x, y)  # -43.170055 -91.753226

Please see the documentation for more information.

    Maybe you want to reach out to the IRC channel #AppImage on Freenode. There you'll find AppImage developers who are willing to help fix any problems you may have with packaging and testing your AppImage.

  • [ENH] Extract calculation functions from GUI

    [ENH] Extract calculation functions from GUI

    Hi! First of all I would like to say that this system is amazing, it works great!

    I would like to use this in my thesis with Reinforcement learning in which I am creating mechanism (1-DOF, derived from a fourbar linkage) from python and I need to get the trajectories of those mechanism as fast as possible (3trajectories /second). Is there any way of defining the mechanism in a script and get the trajectories there without using the GUI interface ?

    This is how I define the linkages in python currently image

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    @KmolYuan, thank you for the DEB's produced for KUbuntu 16.04, but it look little incomplete (no dependency information included)

    What about producing AppImages, that could run on near all Linux-based distributives?

    [DOC] The docs don't seem to display well in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome (haven't tried more yet)

    When I open the documentation (https://pyslvs-ui.readthedocs.io/en/stable/python-solvespace-api/) I mostly see some huge search and code icons, it does show a menu but returns 404 errors as I navigate through it. I would love to dig in to this documentation though as I'm eager/curious to use the library for a course I am teaching on Algorithmic Folding (lecture = linkage folding)

    so far I tested with Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, happy to test more if that helps

    I love this project, thanks so much for putting this together!

  • "bata" (typo mistake in versioning)

    Version 0.9 bata 1

    This typo mistake should be fixed to "Version 0.9 beta 1". But I also recommend write it as "Pyslvs-PyQt5 0.9-beta.1", and as tag use v0.9-beta.1

    Also recommend you read the guide "Semantic Versioning"

    • http://semver.org

    "Semantic Versioning" now is most popular versioning sheme for user software.

  • [ENH] Plotting time histories of positions, velocities and accelerations

    [ENH] Plotting time histories of positions, velocities and accelerations

    Hi,

    this software is really great, thank you for sharing it. I just want to suggest an improvement to make it even better. Would it be possible to add an option to plot time histories of positions, velocities and accelerations for selected points ? It seems that currently these variables can be plotted only with respect to position. Such a feature would be very useful in my opinion.

  • [BUG] Slider-crank mechanism doesn't work with aligned points

    [BUG] Slider-crank mechanism doesn't work with aligned points

    Hi,

    I think that I've encountered a bug. I followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cB5wYyc0J0c

    and modeled a simple slider-crank mechanism:

    slider crank

    The problem is that it doesn't work properly - you can see that the curves showing paths of points belonging to the mechanism are very short and motion of this linkage can't be simulated. However, it happens only when point 0 and point 2 have the same Y coordinate. When I move one of them slightly above or below the other, it starts working:

    slider crank 2

    I also attached the .pyslvs file packed to zip below. Would it be possible to fix this bug ?
