This paper presents an optimal estimation method for nonlinear mechanical systems. The a priori knowledge of the system in the form of a nonlinear model structure is taken as a starting point. The method determines estimates of the parameters and estimates of the positions, velocities, accelerations, and inputs of the system. The optimal estimation method is applied to an experimental mechanical system. The unknown parameters in this system relate to inertia, friction and elastic deformation. It is shown that the optimal estimation method on the basis of a relatively simple model structure can lead to a useful description of the system.

To identify the dynamics of mechanical systems, the usual practice is to assume a certain model structure and try to estimate the unknown parameters of this model on the basis of input output observations. For mechanical systems operating under noisy industrial conditions, the number of unknowns of the problem exceeds the number of equations available. It is then inevitable that certain assumptions must be made on the unknown disturbances. This paper assumes that the only reliable feature of the disturbance is its independence of input. This yields a set of assumptions in excess of the minimal requirements and an endeavor has been made to exploit this excess to minimize the parameter estimation errors. Th resulting algorithm is similar to that of the Two Stage Least Squares method [1].

In this paper the procedure and program for simulation of stochastic processes are represented. The program is applied to nonlinear mechanical systems subjected to stochastic stationary excitation. The results obtained are compared with the ones from other methods which are used for estimating the exactitude of simulation technique.
