The program simulates the excavator bucket mechanism - a mesh model is linked to a simple link mechanism. The mechanism is a set of linked rotational groups and defined in my_mech.mch file. This program was created during my first year as a PhD student when I still was searching for the research area. In six months I changed my direction for the visualization.
