A review of continuous contact-force models in multibody dynamics

International Journal of Mechanical Sciences, 2018
This is a review of well established and recently introduced contact-force models that are used in the dynamical analysis of multibody systems. In particular, two contact groups have been investigated: the general (point contact) and the cylindrical ...

Approximate Bayesian multibody tracking

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2006
Visual tracking of multiple targets is a challenging problem, especially when efficiency is an issue. Occlusions, if not properly handled, are a major source of failure. Solutions supporting principled occlusion reasoning have been proposed but are yet unpractical for online applications. This paper presents a new solution which effectively manages the

Definition of Multibody System

2015
This chapter presents a general view of multibody system concept and definition by describing the main features associated with spatial systems. The mechanical components, which can be modeled as rigid or flexible, are constrained by kinematic pair of different types.

A novel alternate multibody model for the longitudinal and ride dynamics of a tracked vehicle

, 2021
This paper presents a novel alternate multibody model for a tracked vehicle by replacing the tracks with a set of imaginary wheels. A planar multibody model with imaginary wheels replacing tracks is developed with a nonlinear contact force model for the ...

On the use of component mode synthesis methods for the model reduction of flexible multibody systems within the floating frame of reference formulation

, 2020
This paper is focused on the application of the fundamental model reduction techniques used in structural dynamics to flexible multibody systems. In particular, an effective computational approach is developed and tested in this work for adapting the ...

A Multibody Motion Stability Analysis

Multibody System Dynamics, 1999
The authors use AUTOLEV, a symbol manipulation computer program, to study the stability of a class of multibody systems. The advantages of AUTOLEV for this purpose is discussed. The paper could be useful to analysts working with large systems, both specifically and in general.

Representation of Joints in Multibody Systems

ZAMM - Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics / Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, 1988
AbstractA description of the interconnections between the bodies of a multibody system is given in terms of mode vectors representing constrained relative motion and generalized applied and constraint interaction across joints. The representation can be applied to develop joint libraries for general purpose multibody programs thus releasing the user ...

Stability Investigation of Multibody Spacecraft

ZAMM, 1999
Summary: Combining two different approaches -- minimization of equivalent potential energy, and linearization of the governing equations of motion, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for stability of relative equilibria for motions of multi-degree-of-freedom systems, in an orbital frame.
