Performance Analysis of Multiple Wave Energy Converters due to Rotor Spacing
A numerical hydrodynamic performance analysis of the pitch-type multibody wave energy converter (WEC) is carried out based on both linear potential flow theory and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in the unidirectional wave condition.

Complex Eigenvalue Analysis of Multibody Problems via Sparsity-Preserving Krylov–Schur Iterations
In this work, we discuss the numerical challenges involved in the computation of the complex eigenvalues of damped multi-flexible-body problems. Aiming at the highest generality, the candidate method must be able to deal with arbitrary rigid body modes ...

The strain-based beam finite elements in multibody dynamics [PDF]
We present a strain-based finite-element formulation for the dynamic analysis of flexible elastic planar multibody systems, composed of planar beams. We consider finite displacements, rotations and strains.

Comparison and Implementation of a Rigid and a Flexible Multibody Planetary Gearbox Model [PDF]
We propose algorithms for developing (1) a rigid (constrained) and (2) a flexible planetary gearbox model. The two methods are compared against each other and advantages/disadvantages of each method are discussed.

The effect of swingarm stiffness on motorcycle stability: Experimental measurements and numerical simulations [PDF]
This paper focuses on the effect of swingarm deformability on motorcycle stability and in particular on the weave mode. Multibody models for the analysis of stability and handling of single track vehicles require a lumped element representation of the ...
