Abstract The present paper approaches in an original manner the dynamic analysis of a wheel which climbs on an inclined plane under the action of a horizontal force. The wheel rolls and slides in the same time. The two movements, rolling and sliding are considered to be independent of each other. Therefore we are dealing with a solid rigid body with two degrees of freedom. The difficulty of approaching the problem lies in the fact that in the differential equations describing the motion of the solid rigid body are also present the constraint forces and these are unknown. For this reason they must be eliminated from the differential equations of motion. The paper presents as well an original method of the constraint forces elimination.

Abstract The paper presents a numerical method of dynamic analysis of a wheel that moves along an inclined plane under the action of a motor torque. The wheel is regarded as a rigid solid body in plane motion that rolls and in the same time slides along a surface which is inclined relative to the horizontal with a certain angle of known value. Therefore, the wheel may be considered as a solid rigid body having two degrees of freedom. The movement of the wheel takes place under the action of a motor torque, active forces and link forces that are unknown. For this reason, link forces must be removed from the differential equations describing the movement of the wheel. The paper also presents a method of removing the link forces from the differential equations of motion.

Abstract When the dynamic study of a solid rigid body subjected to links is wanted to be performed, the main difficulty is that the differential equations of motion contain in their structure the constraint forces which are unknown. Therefore it is necessary to remove them from the differential equations that describe the motion of the rigid body. The case of a wheel climbing on an inclined plane has been presented in this paper. It is considered that the wheel is rolling without sliding on an inclined plane.

Abstract The paper presents a new hybrid parallelizable low order algorithm for modeling the dynamic behavior of multi-rigid-body chain systems. The method is based on cutting certain system interbody joints so that largely independent multibody subchain systems are formed. These subchains interact with one another through associated unknown constraint forces f¯c at the cut joints. The increased parallelism is obtainable through cutting the joints and the explicit determination of associated constraint loads combined with a sequential O(n) procedure. In other words, sequential O(n) procedures are performed to form and solve equations of motion within subchains and parallel strategies are used to form and solve constraint equations between subchains in parallel. The algorithm can easily accommodate the available number of processors while maintaining high efficiency. An O[(n+m)Np+m(1+γ)Np+mγlog2Np](0<γ<1) performance will be achieved with Np processors for a chain system with n degrees of freedom and m constraints due to cutting of interbody joints.

Abstract The wheel is a very important machine part. It is very often found in the construction of the vehicles. Therefore its dynamics must be studied properly. In the paper is presented the dynamical survey of a wheel which climbs on an inclined plane under the action of an active moment produced by an engine. The case of rolling without sliding was taken under consideration in the paper. The approach of the problem is a numerical one. The differential equations describing the movement of the motor wheel were written in matrix form. The paper also presents a method of removing of the constraint forces from the differential equations of motion.

AbstractThis paper presents a two-step formulation for the dynamic analysis of generalised planar linkages. First, a rigid body is replaced by a dynamically equivalent constrained system of particles and Newton's second law is used to study the motion of the particles without introducing any rotational coordinates. The translational motion of the constrained particles represents the general motion of the rigid body both translationally and rotationally. The simplicity and the absence of any rotational coordinates from the final form of the equations of motion are considered the main advantages of this formulation. A velocity transformation is then used to transform the equations of motion to a reduced set in terms of selected relative joint variables. For an open-chain, this process automatically eliminates all of the non-working constraint forces and leads to efficient integration of the equations of motion. For a closed-chain, suitable joints should be cut and some cut-joint constraint equations should be included. An example of a closed-chain is used to demonstrate the generality and efficiency of the proposed method.

In this paper, multibody dynamic modeling and flutter analysis of a flexible slender vehicle are investigated. The method is a comprehensive procedure based on the hybrid equations of motion in terms of quasi-coordinates. The equations consist of ordinary differential equations for the rigid body motions of the vehicle and partial differential equations for the elastic deformations of the flexible components of the vehicle. These equations are naturally nonlinear, but to avoid high nonlinearity of equations the elastic displacements are assumed to be small so that the equations of motion can be linearized. For the aeroelastic analysis a perturbation approach is used, by which the problem is divided into a nonlinear flight dynamics problem for quasi-rigid flight vehicle and a linear extended aeroelasticity problem for the elastic deformations and perturbations in the rigid body motions. In this manner, the trim values that are obtained from the first problem are used as an input to the second problem. The body of the vehicle is modeled with a uniform free–free beam and the aeroelastic forces are derived from the strip theory. The effect of some crucial geometric and physical parameters and the acting forces on the flutter speed and frequency of the vehicle are investigated.

Abstract Constraints in multibody systems are usually treated by a Lagrange I - method resulting in equations of motion together with the constraint forces. Going from non-minimal coordinates to minimal ones opens the possibility to project the original equations directly to the minimal ones, thus eliminating the constraint forces. The necessary procedure is described, a general example of combined machine-process dynamics discussed and a specific example given. For a n-link robot tracking a path the equations of motion are projected onto this path resulting in quadratic form linear differential equations. They define the space of allowed motion, which is generated by a polygon-system.

Abstract Equations of motion are developed for a rotating beam which is constrained to deform in the transverse (flapping) and axial directions. This process results in two coupled nonlinear partial differential equations which govern the attendant dynamics. These equations may be discretized through utilization of the classical normal modes of the nonrotating system in both the transverse and extensional directions. The resultant system may then be diagonalized to linear order and truncated to N nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Several methods are used to determine the model size necessary to ensure accuracy. Once the model size (N degrees of freedom) has been determined, nonlinear normal mode (NNM) theory is applied to reduce the system to a single equation, or a small set of equations, which accurately represent the dynamics of a mode, or set of modes, of interest. Results are presented which detail the convergence of the discretized model and compare its dynamics with those of the NNM-reduced model, as well as other reduced models. The results indicate a considerable improvement over other common reduction techniques, enabling the capture of many salient response features with the simulation of very few degrees of freedom.

Abstract In this paper, the dynamic modelling of a planar three degree-of-freedom platform-type manipulator is presented. A kinematic analysis is carried out initially to evaluate the initial coordinates and velocities. The dynamic model of the manipulator is formulated using a two-step transformation. Initially, the dynamic formulation is written in terms of the Cartesian coordinates of a dynamically equivalent system of particles. Since there is no rotational motion associated with a particle, then the differential equations of motion are derived by applying Newton’s second law to study the translational motion of the particles. The constraint forces between the particles are expressed in terms of Lagrange multipliers. Then, the differential equations of motion are written in terms of the relative joint variables. This leads to an efficient solution and integration of the equations of motion. A numerical example is presented and a computer program is developed.

In this paper, we will focus on the dynamical behavior of a rigid body suspended on an elastic spring as a pendulum model with three degrees of freedom. It is assumed that the body moves in a rotating vertical plane uniformly with an arbitrary angular velocity. The relative periodic motions of this model are considered. The governing equations of motion are obtained using Lagrange’s equations and represent a nonlinear system of second-order differential equations that can be solved in terms of generalized coordinates. The numerical solutions are investigated using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta algorithms through Matlab packages. These solutions are represented graphically in order to describe and discuss the behavior of the body at any instant for different values of the physical parameters of the body. The obtained results have been discussed and compared with some previous published works. Some concluding remarks have been presented at the end of this work. The importance of this work is due to its numerous applications in life such as the vibrations that occur in buildings and structures.
