Multibody Systems with Flexible Elements [PDF]
The formalism of multibody systems offers a means of computer-assisted algorithmic analysis and a means of simulating and optimizing an arbitrary movement of a possible high number of elastic bodies in the connection [...]

Internal dynamics of multibody systems [PDF]
We consider nonlinear multibody systems and present a suitable set of coordinates for the internal dynamics which allow to decouple the internal dynamics without the need to compute the Byrnes-Isidori form. Furthermore, we derive sufficient conditions for the system parameters such that the internal dynamics of a class of systems with constant mass ...

Analyzing and Optimizing Multibody Systems [PDF]
Optimization of holonomic as well as non-holonomic multibody systems is presented as a nonlinear programming problem that can be solved with general-purpose optimization codes. The adjoint variable approach is used for calculating design derivatives of a rather general integral type performance measure with respect to design parameters.

A Direct Eigenanalysis of Multibody System in Equilibrium [PDF]
This paper presents a direct eigenanalysis procedure for multibody system in equilibrium. The first kind Lagrange’s equation of the dynamics of multibody system is a set of differential algebraic equations, and the equations can be used to solve the equilibrium of the system.

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

TwinX shows how a single interbody wire connecting two robots can support both integrated morphological reconfiguration and distributed wire‐mediated cooperation. When the robots dock, they reconfigure into different forms for locomotion and manipulation.

Controllability and Observability Conditions for Impulsive DAEs on Time Scales
ABSTRACT This paper establishes criteria for controllability and observability in a class of linear time‐invariant impulsive differential‐algebraic equations (DAEs) defined on a time scale. Controllability is defined as the ability to transfer the system state from any initial condition to any desired state within a finite time interval using an ...

Linear Mechatronic Modeling of Rectangular Tank Sloshing Dynamics
ABSTRACT Sloshing dynamics in partially filled tanks can strongly influence system‐level behavior when fluid motion couples with rigid‐body dynamics. This paper presents a linear and acausal two‐dimensional sloshing model for rectangular tanks, based on the reformulation of established sloshing theory within a modular, multi‐domain modeling framework ...

ABSTRACT Vibration isolation has long been a critical area of research, with the design of isolators based on the mechanical properties of Euler buckling beams representing one of the primary approaches. Traditionally, the focus has been on utilizing the negative stiffness characteristics of a post‐buckled Euler beam in parallel with positive stiffness

Symbolic Computations in Multibody Systems [PDF]
Symbolic formula manipulation has proven to be an efficient tool in the dynamical analysis of multibody systems. A multibody system data base is introduced and its implementation using a CAD-3D-software is shown. Starting from the data base the equations of motion are generated by a coordinate partitioning approach combined with the projection ...
