These sorts of things happen all the time.

Mmm.. static goodness.
Life's pretty good when you're not moving; but, what happens when you do? The dynamic case!

Of course always being dynamic can be difficult:

\mathbf{M(q)} \ddot{\mathbf{q}} - \mathbf{Q}_v + \mathbf{C_q}^T \mathbf{\lambda} = \mathbf{F},

I'd rather keep my equations derivative free if possible. So what's a person to do?

Derive Quasi-static Loading!

As far as I can tell it hasn't been done yet , not even sure of its value. Makes a nice slide show of derivations though.

Cheers.

Eibach Springs Being made

I was looking on YouTube for some good lectures on mechanics of materials and I stumbled upon this gem. This video gave me a significantly higher respect for the spring industry in less than ten minutes. Order their own alloys to spec. Check. Cold/hot form springs up to 55 mm. Check In house heat treatment and strain hardening. Check In house testing and quality. Check In house paint and coating. Check. Awesome ties to F1 and Rally racing. Check!
