Falling Arm Trebuchest Simulator. To aid designers and enthusiasts (and anyone who wants to win a trebuchet competition), i created a trebuchet simulator, programmed in microsoft excel which simulates the motion of a trebuchet, and is very useful for trebuchet design. Each of the simulations allows you to vary the important parameters of the trebuchet:

When the bucket of rocks drops, the throwing arm rotates and the sling. I stumbled into a much simpler variant of covariance matrix adaptation evolutionary search while implementing this app, and figure i might as well document it here. Basically, this app follows this paper:

Made for college physics project. An efficient simulation approach is developed for ‘the motion of. The most complex simulations are for the 'floating arm' trebuchet, which has become an instant classic among mechanical engineering students. To aid designers and enthusiasts (and anyone who wants to win a trebuchet competition), i created a trebuchet simulator, programmed in microsoft excel which simulates the motion of a trebuchet, and is very useful for trebuchet design.
