Models of working trebuchets are reasonably simple to build but the analysis of their dynamics can be very complex. In this short paper, we look at how to optimise the position of the fulcrum in order to achieve maximum speed for the ballistic, when the launch angle is at 45°.
Keywords:
position trebuchet;
optimum fulcrum;
analysis;
