Abstract Welded structures, such as hydraulically driven booms, are disposed to fatigue damage. Design against fatigue requires information on the fatigue resistance of a structure’s critical details and the fatigue loads that act on each detail. The present paper introduces a method based on dynamic simulation for determining the fatigue loads in a hydraulically driven log crane. The detailed simulation model was built up in the MBS-software environment in which the flexible mechanism model and the equations describing the hydraulic system were combined. The complete simulation model was verified by comparing measurements to numerical results. This comparison shows that there is a clear correspondence between the simulated and measured results. It was thus shown that it is possible to create a simulation model which can be used realistically for determining stresses in fatigue analysis. The model was employed in the study of the fatigue loads, which are formed when the crane is being loaded.

The present paper introduces a method based on dynamic simulation for determining the fatigue parameters in a hydraulically driven log crane. The parameters that describe the nature of fatigue loads can be applied in order to facilitate designer work in fatigue life prediction. The detailed simulation model was built up in the ADAMS mechanical analysis software environment in which the flexible mechanism model and the equations describing the hydraulic system were combined. The complete simulation model was verified by comparing measurements to numerical results. This comparison shows that there is a clear correspondence between the simulated and measured results. The model was employed in the study of the fatigue parameters, which are formed when the crane is being loaded.

The parameterized dynamic simulation model for a multi-link high precision press has been established in the ADAMS software environment based on the displacement equations. The press being developed is taken as an example to study the slider’s displacement curves, velocity curves and acceleration curves under different crank radius in practice as well as the working angle curves and torque curves. With the crank radius increasing, the started punching angle comes early and the slider’s velocity and acceleration at bottom dead center (B.D.C) decreases significantly which help to improve the accuracy of B.D.C and to lower the torque consumption during stamping. Meanwhile, the increasing of working angle helps to reduce the lateral force acting on the slider, such as the torque required to overcome the inertial forces increases rapidly, the torque needed to overcome the nominal force decreases and the peak of nominal force shifts to the lower left gradually. Results of the research mentioned above are helpful to develop the multi-link high-speed press.

The use of the traditional fabric simulation model evidently shows that it cannot accurately reflect the material properties of the real fabric. This is against the background that the simulation result is artificial or an imitation, which leads to a low simulation equation. In order to solve such problems from occurring, there is need for a novel model that is designed to enhance the essential properties required for a flexible fabric, the simulation effect of the fabric, and the efficiency of simulation equation solving. Therefore, the improvement study results will offer a meaningful and practical understanding within the field of garment automation design, three-dimensional animation, virtual fitting to mention but a few.

SUMMARY In this paper, mathematical models of kinematics, statics and inverse dynamics are derived firstly according to the mechanical structure of leg hydraulic drive system (LHDS). Then, all the above models are integrated with MATLAB/Simulink to build the LHDS simulation model, the model not only considers influence of leg dynamic characteristics on hydraulic system but also takes into account nonlinearity, variable load characteristics and other common problems brought by hydraulic system, and solves compatibility and operation time which brought by using multiple software simultaneously. The experimental results show the simulation model built in this paper can accurately express characteristics of the system.
