GSOC-Initial Contact
To sir, About Me- I am Parthesh Divesh Savla, a 3rd Year Engineering student from MIT, Manipal. I am pursuing Mechatronics Engineering and planning to participate in GSOC. System Modeling and Control Theory is not only my domain of interest but also my strength. Looking at the organizers of GSOC, I found mbdyn and absolutely loved it. My previous stints with dynamic systems includes but is not limited to coding(from scratch) localization problem for 2-wheel differential drive, forward and inverse kinematics of robotic arms, dynamics of a hexacopter and modelling simple systems with LQR controller(double pendulum, spring mass system, inverted cart pendulum) on MATLAB. The idea of a free dynamics analysis software amazes me and I would like to contribute by participating in GSOC 2020. About GSOC- At present I have downloaded MBDyn software, compiled it and installed it successfully. I ran a test case on a simple Pendulum and generated the output files. I now plan to explore the software a little bit and simulate the results obtained. I would like to work on the idea of Modeling Capabilities for my project. However I need some guidance from a mentor as this is the first time I am participating in GSOC and I really think I could contribute something substantial to MBdyn. I will be waiting for your reply and hope for your guidance.
Regards, Parthesh
