Consulting: Forces, Motion, Energy, Software

Each Motion Genesis Senior Consultant has more than 20 years and 20,000 hours of core competency providing effective and efficient solutions for industries engaged in CAE (computer-aided engineering), control-system integration, bioengineering, energy, agriculture, transportation, defense, space exploration, machines, appliances, biomedicine, exercise, education, litigation, and entertainment.

We help our clients with strategic initiatives and help them succeed with their cases and projects, within their organization, and with their customers. In consultation with our client, we analyze systems and build software tools.

MotionGenesis Senior Consultants
For example, we use dynamics, controls, CAE, and software tools to:
  • Provide input for design, control, analysis, and litigation
  • Develop mathematical models of mechanical systems
  • Create computationally efficient computer simulation programs
  • Create software tailored to client-specified requirements
  • Simulate motion, determine forces, and integrate with control systems
  • Generate equations of motion in symbolic and embedable form
  • Do parametric studies and performance predictions
  • Present results in various forms (tabulated data, plots, animation, etc.)

Systems may have a wide range of joint types and interaction force/torques (e.g., friction, motors, muscles, etc.) specified motion, open and closed chains, nonholonomic constraints, and control laws. Representative examples include robots, manipulators, spacecraft, road vehicles, mechanisms, machinery, and human subjects.
