Wheel climbing a ramp

Wheel climbing a ramp

Hello to all Mathcad professionnals

I need your help again.

 

I need to calculate a drive torque for a wheel climbing a ramp.

i can calculate this,  but my worksheet is not elegant and is heavy 😥 (probably, i'a m using matchad programmation not correctly)

Here is now i do

The ramp is cylindrical profil

in first time

now, i dicotomize a ramp ( arc lenght)

In second time. At this step, this is a mechanical problem

I assume the ramp angle is simply a/2 .

In fact, the ramp (red line, on the picture) is the tangent equation at the circle. the first point where we calculate a tangent is calculate with polar coordinates from dicotomized values.

I think my result its Ok

but i want more 😁

 

I want calculate all Traction forces and all associated torques for all dicotomized value.

in one program ?

and i want to draw all result

at this moment i am lost, can you help me

thank

Thanks!

it's good !

 C is Torque (Couple, in my language, because is Forces x lenght is a couple of values)

the red curve must be negative , because the wheel 1 ( blue curve) climb the ramp

and the wheel 2 ( red curve)  go down the ramp

the force has left the wheel 1 at 22.5deg , even if it continues to climb, the torque decrease.

 

fabulous , i learn Mathcad slowly ... Thanks Werner 👍

The maximum is not exactly at 22.5°:

Good thing that we have functions 🙂
