Trampoline Multibody Simulation


Introduction


→ Trampoline is a very interesting sport/game equipment. The main components of a trampoline are the frame which is usually made of metal such as iron or steel and the fabric which is made up of a polymer such as a rubber/plastic, reinforced elastic fibers.
→ Let us understand how the physics of trampoline works. The most basic theory which encapsulates this phenomenon is Hooke’s Law. The Hooke’s law can be stated as
→ For Springs, “the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance is proportional to that distance. ”

$$ F = -kx $$
