Finite Element Formulations

Abstract In this investigation, the performance of two different large displacement finite element formulations in the analysis of flexible multibody systems is investigated. These are the incremental corotational procedure proposed by Rankin and Brogan [8] and the non-incremental absolute nodal coordinate formulation recently proposed [9]. It is demonstrated in this investigation that the limitation resulting from the use of the nodal rotations in the incremental corotational procedure can lead to simulation problems even when very simple flexible multibody applications are considered.

Abstract A new kind of floating frame whose parameters do not appear in equations of motion as additional unknowns is defined. Numerical analysis of flexible multibody dynamics is much facilitated by using finite-element iteration of the corresponding equations based on this concept.

Collaborative dynamics modeling of flexible multibody and rigid multibody for an electromagnetic direct-drive vehicle robot driver is proposed in the article. First, spatial dynamic equations of the direct-drive vehicle robot driver are obtained based on multibody system dynamics. Then, the shift manipulator dynamics model and the mechanical leg dynamics model are established on the basis of the multibody dynamics equations. After establishing a rigid multibody dynamics model and conducting finite element mesh and finite element discrete processing, a flexible multibody dynamics modeling of the electromagnetic direct-drive vehicle robot driver is established. The comparison of the simulation results between rigid and flexible multibody is performed. Simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of the presented model of the electromagnetic direct-drive vehicle robot driver.
