Caterpillar plays an important role in engineering. While the problems existed affect on its reliability. Because of the testing condition it is difficult to solve some problems in fault mechanics. Nowadays the reliability just relies on the maintenance and repair which deeply affect its efficiency. With the rapid and widely used of collaborative simulation based on interfaces in Caterpillar, in this paper collaborative simulation based on interfaces is researched in Caterpillar which will reduce or replace the experimentation. An example on the planetary frame demonstrate the feasible. Collaborative simulation based on interfaces applied in caterpillar will be an efficiency approach to engineering.

The virtual prototyping model of large erecting system is established by means of ADAMS and AMESim software. Based on the theory of multi-rigid body dynamic, the topology description of erecting system is given. Dynamics analysis model of large erecting system is built in ADAMS software, and mechanics character is given through the analysis of the erecting system. The simulation model of hydraulic system is built using AMESim software. Collaborative simulation based on the interfaces of ADAMS and AMESim is discussed, and the dynamic characteristic of the erecting system is simulated based on the interfaces of ADAMS and AMESim. Some simulation results are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed model. This method provides a new approach for the modeling and simulation of electro-mechanical systems.

The existing stability evaluation methods of damaged vessels fell short of the consideration of the turbulent characteristics. Based on the analysis of the coupled relation of the damaged rectangular vessels’ stability and the water dynamic characteristics under different stages, collaborative simulations were made with the aid of MATLAB and FLUENT. Results show that: (1) the swing significantly hinders the turbulent; when the swinging amplitude is comparatively small, its impact is weakened accordingly. (2) When the swinging amplitude increases, in phase , backflow emerges. (3) When the swing frequency is high, an extremum appeared in phase , whose value is determined by the biggest swing angular acceleration.
