Abstract In this paper, the generalized nonlinear equations of motion for elastic linkage mechanism systems are presented, in which the gross motion and elastic deformation coupling terms and the geometric nonlinearity effects are taken into account. The equations of motion are period and time-varying nonlinear equations. According to the characteristics, solution method for this kind nonlinear equations is investigated, and an efficient closed-form iterative procedure is presented. The effects of geometric nonlinearity on linkage mechanisms are studied. The results of this study are important for dynamic design of linkage mechanism systems.

The dynamics of a slider-crank mechanism is developed using Kane's equations of motion. The motor torque is a function of the derivative of the generalized coordinate. The nonlinear equations of motion are solved using MATLAB numerical techniques. The sample entropy is calculated for different angular velocities of the crank.

In this paper, the dynamic performance of the Ruston and Hornsby VEB diesel engine connecting-rod bearing with circular and out-of-round profiles is analyzed. The effect of cavitation is considered by using a cavitation algorithm, which mimics JFO boundary conditions. The effect of mass inertia is accounted for by solving coupled nonlinear equations of motion. The journal profiles considered are circular, elliptical, semi elliptical and three lobe epicycloid. The predicted journal trajectory and other performance parameters for one complete load cycle are presented for all of the out-of-round profiles and are also compared with the predictions for the circular bearing.
