Right, it was the commas/dots difference. I should know it.
Thanks, now it works fine. I had a good time drawing some spirals :)

Re: re: MTs, WM2D, and WM Basic Language Script Code

A while back Gregory posted some code to create an arc: https://besslerwheel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=166604#166604 At the time I thought it wasn't too useful, but I finally realized Gregory's arc tool could be used as both an inside or an outside ramp, so I modified my ramp code to create an arc ...

Sorry guys, I didn't really explained how it works.
You can make it to draw CCW too, just switch the stp variable to negative in that case, like stp=-1, and set a d1 value smaller than d2, that's all.

re: WM2D Downloads Section

Hey guys,
Here is also a sub() I created a while back. You can draw any circular arc segment you like, just setup the starting parameters to your choice. It can also add positive/negative chamfers at the end of the arc, might be useful for some special parts.

..this is hard to make - manually setting out 360 points (so one per degree) of outer perimeter, then another 360 for the inner, and then meticulously threading them all together, joining the dots for the best part of an hour without making any mistakes (it's a one-shot deal if you don't wanna be m...

Hi MrV, Welcome back in wonderland! :) Same result as before, 60 J gain in GPE, with 30 J of initial RKE, so presumably the linear actuator performs 30 J of work braking away the 30 J of RKE... So the problem is that it's 'doing work' to undo previously-done work.. Yes, initial RKE is: RKE = 0.5 &am...

I hated to be the topic killer... Most of the time Mr V has a really original way of looking at things. I hoped he'll simply correct the excel, and come back with some genius solution of his. Perhaps, he was just carried himself too far away down the rabbit hole? Also happens to me lots of times... ...

Yes, his clips are usually longer. I also got this feeling a few times, but otherwise it was quite enjoyable. Well, I haven't watched all of his videos, only what I was intrested in.

For example, this one about rotational stuff is really a good upload:

Looks very complicated, above my level of understanding...

You want to construct a Lagrangian to include everything in one single formula, a kind of field equation which describes/governs the behaviour of the system?

Is there a benefit with this?

I think some physicists would be very quick to jump and debunk the concept in a minute. Also lots of physicist would think that if I take an overbalanced wheel design to them for analysis, then I must be a nutjob for sure. I agree that most physics guys can sound very arrogant and harsh at times, an...

Re: re: Familiarity breeds contempt...

A physicist, looking at a PMM CONCEPT, no matter how well presented, will always start by doing all he can to prove that the concept won't work, using all formulas he can use in his calculation to disprove the concept. Raj And if he can't prove it wrong, then the concept will be validated. Why is t...

re: Plying CF as pseudo-inertia to scam N3

Hey MrV, I have created an excel table (attached), so others may understand better what are you arguing about. You can check it, and correct the equations as you like. Is this scenario what you have in mind? I used to design several different momentum manipulator type of wheels between 2011-2015, on...
