Two-dimensional golf swing model for simplified biomechanical analysis

2D Golf Model Repository

Two-dimensional golf swing model for simplified analysis and visualization of golf swing dynamics. Provides a streamlined approach to understanding fundamental biomechanical principles with reduced computational complexity.

Overview

This repository contains a simplified 2D model of the golf swing, focusing on planar motion analysis. The reduced dimensionality makes it ideal for understanding core biomechanical principles, control-affine dynamics, and drift-input decomposition without the complexity of full 3D simulations.

Features

Simplified Dynamics: Planar motion analysis for easier understanding
Fast Computation: Reduced computational requirements compared to 3D models
Educational Value: Ideal for learning fundamental biomechanical principles
Control Analysis: Tools for analyzing control-affine system properties
Visualization: 2D visualization tools for swing analysis

Use Cases

The 2D model is particularly useful for educational purposes, rapid prototyping of control strategies, understanding fundamental dynamics before moving to 3D models, and scenarios where planar motion is sufficient for analysis.
