A new method is presented by which equations of motion of complex dynamical systems are reduced when subjected to some constraints. The method developed is used when the governing equations are derived using Kane’s equations with undetermined multipliers. The solution vectors of the constraint equations are determined utilizing the recursive Householder transformation to obtain a Pseudo-Uptriangular matrix. The most general solution in terms of new independent coordinates is then formulated. Methods previously used for handling such systems are discussed and the new method advantages are illustrated. The procedures developed are suitable for computer automation and especially in developing generic programs to study a large class of systems dynamics such as robotics, biosystems, and complex mechanisms.

A new automated procedure for obtaining and solving the governing equations of motion of constrained multibody systems is presented. The procedure is applicable when the constraints are either (a) geometrical (for example, “closed-loops”) or (b) kinematical (for example, specified motion). The procedure is based on a “zero eigenvalues theorem,” which provides an “orthogonal complement” array which in turn is used to contract the dynamical equations. This contraction, together with the constraint equations, forms a consistent set of governing equations. An advantage of this formulation is that constraining forces are automatically eliminated from the analysis. The method is applied with Kane’s equations—an especially convenient set of dynamical equations for multibody systems. Examples of a constrained hanging chain and a chain whose end has a prescribed motion are presented. Applications in robotics, cable dynamics, and biomechanics are suggested.

We develop a method to find solutions of the equations of motion in Hamiltonian Dynamical Systems. We apply this method to the system [Formula: see text] We study the case a → 0 and we find that in this case the system has an infinite number of period dubling bifurcations.

In this paper, vibration behavior of engine on nonlinear hydraulic engine mount including inertia track and decoupler is studied. In this regard, after introducing the nonlinear factors of this mount (i.e. inertia and decoupler resistances in turbulent region), the vibration governing equations of engine on one hydraulic engine mount are solved and the effect of nonlinearity is investigated. In order to have a comparison between rubber and hydraulic engine mounts, a 6 degree of freedom four cylinders V-shaped engine under inertia and balancing masses forces and torques is considered. By solving the time domain nonlinear equations of motion of engine on three inclined mounts, translational and rotational motions of engines body are obtained for different engine speeds. Transmitted base forces are also determined for both types of engine mount. Comparison of rubber and hydraulic mounts indicates the efficiency of hydraulic one in low frequency region.
