A generic multi-flex-body dynamics, controls simulation tool for space station [PDF]

open access: yes
An order (n) multiflex body Space Station simulation tool is introduced. The flex multibody modeling is generic enough to model all phases of Space Station from build up through to Assembly Complete configuration and beyond.

NASTRAN interfacing modules within the Integrated Analysis Capability (IAC) Program [PDF]

open access: yes
The IAC program provides the framework required for the development of an extensive multidisciplinary analysis capability. Several NASTRAN related capabilities were developed which can all be expanded in a routine manner to meet in-house unique needs ...

Recursive multibody dynamics and discrete-time optimal control [PDF]

open access: yes
A recursive algorithm is developed for the solution of the simulation dynamics problem for a chain of rigid bodies. Arbitrary joint constraints are permitted, that is, joints may allow translational and/or rotational degrees of freedom.

Hydro-elasticity in flexible multibody dynamics

open access: yes, 2016
A method is presented that incorporates hydrodynamic radiation forces in the floating frame of reference method used in flexible multibody dynamics. These hydrodynamic forces are approximated such that the fully hydro-elastically coupled problem can be solved at once using standard techniques.

Dynamic modeling of multibody flexible structures

open access: yes, 2018
This dissertation presents research work on the dynamic modeling of a three-dimensional, multibody, flexible, structural system with mutually coupled multicoordinates of unknown large overall rigid body motion. The study includes theory development and mathematical modeling, time integration numerical technique investigation, computer simulation and ...
