Multibody Dynamics of Very Flexible Damped Systems

Multibody System Dynamics, 1999
The authors consider flexible multibody systems where the bodies may undergo large deformations. Both open and closed loop systems are considered with a variety of connecting joints. Kane's equations are used to obtain the governing dynamical equations. The formulation is then written in algorithmic form and implemented in a numerical procedure (FLXDYN)

Dynamics of general flexible multibody systems

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 1990
AbstractA general treatment is presented for modelling the dynamics of a flexible multibody system, using a lumped mass finite element approach. The system topology considered here is defined as an arbitrary combination of both rigid and flexible bodies, connected together by joints that permit translation and compliance, in a general tree ...

DYNAMICS OF FLEXIBLE MULTIBODY MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

Transactions of the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering, 1991
In this paper the formulation and simulation of the dynamical equations of multibody mechanical systems comprising of both rigid and flexible-links are accomplished in two steps: in the first step, each link is considered as an unconstrained body and hence, its Euler-Lagrange (EL) equations are derived disregarding the kinematic couplings; in the ...

Dynamic Simulation of General Flexible Multibody Systems∗

Mechanics of Structures and Machines, 1999
Abstract A formulation and associated solution method are presented for dynamic simulation of multibody systems consisting of rigid bodies, flexible bodies that undergo large gross motion accompanied by small elastic vibration, and flexible bodies that undergo large gross motion and geometric and material nonlinear deformation.

A Variational Approach to Dynamics of Flexible Multibody Systems

Mechanics of Structures and Machines, 1989
This paper presents a variational formulation of constrained dynamics of flexible multibody systems, using a vector-variational calculus approach. Body reference frames are used to define global position and orientation of individual bodies in the system, located and oriented by position of its origin and Euler parameters, respectively.

Non-linear dynamics of flexible multibody systems

Computers & Structures, 2003
Abstract In this work we set to examine several important issues pertinent to currently very active research area of the finite element modeling of flexible multibody system dynamics. To that end, we first briefly introduce three different model problems in non-linear dynamics of flexible 3D solid, a rigid body and 3D geometrically exact beam, which ...

Timoshenko beams and flexible multibody system dynamics

Journal of Sound and Vibration, 1987
A method for the dynamic analysis of flexible multibody systems that accounts for rotary inertia and shear deformation effects is presented. Flexible components in the system are discretized by using the finite element method. Because of the large rotations of the system components, a set of reference co-ordinates are employed to describe the motion of
