Abstract: The equation of motion of a system representing the same input-output motion of a physical model can be solved using classical ordinary differential equation solutions. We participated in the SCUDEM VIII 2023 challenge and modeled the motion behavior of Fritz trying to catch the object being thrown at him. We derived the equations using Newton's Laws of Motion in two dimensions and simulated the equations including air drag and dimensions of a golden retriever in MATLAB Simulink and MATLAB live editor. Additionally, we visualized the motion by integrating both the CAD model of the dog and equations in MATLAB Simscape.
