Tutorial - Simulation of ball basic motion in SolidWorks Part -5?

Here is the tutorial on basic motion. This is the main part of this tutorial.
-
Step 1:
Click Motion study 1.
-
Step 2:
Now the motion manager shows up.
-
Step 3:
Change the motion type from animation to basic motion.
-
Step 4:
Collapse the motion manager.
-
Step 5:
Click gravity icon.
-
Step 6:
Change the direction to Y and downwards. Click OK.
-
Step 7:
Click Contact icon.
-
Step 8:
Select all bodies & click OK. Basically there will be contact occuring between these parts. Since in this motion we have the contact between all bodies so I selected all parts.
-
Step 9:
Now our model is prepared for basic motion.
-
Step 10:
Expand the motion manager.
-
Step 11:
Drag the key to 12 seconds. This will be enough time for the whole motion since we have large gravity value.
-
Step 12:
Click Calculate icon.
-
Step 13:
The motion occurs and the balls goto the bottom. As we can see that ther is contact between the parts.
-
Step 14:
Click Gravity icon. We are now going to reduce the gravity so that we can have better representation.
-
Step 15:
Input the value of 200mm/s^2.
-
Step 16:
Click Calculate icon again and we can see that this time balls moves more swiftly. This is because the gravity has been lowered for the whole system.
-
Step 17:
Click Save animation to save the animation to video.
-
Step 18:
Change custom aspect ratio to 4:3.
-
Step 19:
Change Frame per second to 15. This will increase the smoothness. Higher the value higher will be the file size and smoother the animation but requiring more time and memory.
-
Step 20:
Change Image size to 800 600. Keep them even because XviD is not going to work on odd image size.
-
Step 21:
Select XviD MPEG-4 Codec. This is available in K-Lite Codec pack.
-
Step 22:
Click configure.
-
Step 23:
Adjust the video settings here and click OK.
-
Step 24:
Click OK and the SolidWorks will start saving video to directory.
-
Step 25:
The saving process will go throught the whole animation again. Now we have succesfully created the basic motion of balls under a box.
