This book presents a general methodology for dynamic analysis of planar rigid multibody systems. After a brief characterization of the embryogenesis of multibody systems, the concept of multibody system is presented and accompanied with some examples of application. The main types of coordinates used to model multibody systems are also presented and discussed. A description of global and local coordinates is also offered. Then, a complete formulation of the elementary kinematic constraints is presented, as well as the main issues related to the kinematic analysis of multibody systems. Then,...

The goal of this book is to present general methodologies for dynamic analysis of mechanical systems with imperfect, that is, considering joint clearances and their tribological characteristics and surface compliance properties. Two and three- dimensional comprehensive methodologies for imperfect kinematic joints with and without lubrication are proposed. In the sequel of this process, different contact-impact force models are revisited in face of their suitability to represent collision between the bodies connected by imperfect joints. The incorporation of friction forces, based ...

This book will be particularly useful to those interested in multibody simulation (MBS) and the formulation for the dynamics of spatial multibody systems. The main types of coordinates that can be used in the formulation of the equations of motion of constrained multibody systems are described. The multibody system, made of interconnected bodies that undergo large displacements and rotations, is fully defined. Readers will discover how Cartesian coordinates and Euler parameters are utilized and are the supporting structure for all methodologies and dynamic analysis, developed within the...

This book analyzes several compliant contact force models within the context of multibody dynamics, while also revisiting the main issues associated with fundamental contact mechanics. In particular, it presents various contact force models, from linear to nonlinear, from purely elastic to dissipative, and describes their parameters. Addressing the different numerical methods and algorithms for contact problems in multibody systems, the book describes the gross motion of multibody systems by using a two-dimensional formulation based on the absolute coordinates and employs different...
