Twin-rotor piston engine (TRPE) is a new differential rotary engine, which is still under developing. In this paper, a rigid-flexible coupling dynamics model was established for the prototype TRPE-350. By combining the multi-body dynamics simulating software RecurDyn and the finite analysis software ANSYS, the TRPE′s performances were studied. Vibration analysis for rigid-flexible coupling model was analyzed. The simulation results can be found that the simulated overall changing trends match with the actual movement of the TRPE very well. So it provides a theoretical tool for further optimization and improvement of this engine.

Anti-backlash gear can improve the static transmission precision of system. Besides, the dynamic characteristics of anti-backlash gear system have a significant effect on the performance of overall mechanism, and the torsion spring preload of anti-backlash gear is an important factor to affect the dynamic characteristic. In order to study dynamic characteristics of the anti-backlash gear, a rigid-flexible coupling model of single-stage anti-backlash system was established based on ADAMS / Flex, and the simulation accuracy was compared with the pure rigid model. The effect of the torsion spring preload on frequency response of the anti-backlash system was studied by virtual sweep experiments.

Based on multi-body dynamics theory and the Lagrange equation, the rigid-flexible coupling dynamical equations of the Coal sampling arm was deduced.The rigid-flexible coupling mode is established by combining with Pro/E, ANSYS and ADAMS, and the model curve is gotten by simulation. The simulation results indicate that rigid-flexible coupling modeling is more actual and it is necessary to consider the flexible deformation of all arms when the sampling arm system is researched. The results in this paper presents the theoretical foundation for the sampling arm dynamical analysis and structure optimization.

In this paper, a theoretical mechanical model for the brake shoe is set up according to the foundation brake unit of railway freight cars, and it indicates that the friction moment is the origin resulting in brake shoe eccentric wear. On this basis, the pressure distribution formula on the brake shoe is derived when the train brakes in forward and backward direction respectively. The analysis results show that if the wheel and the brake shoe are concentric, the ratio of the revolving-in end pressure to the revolving-out end pressure in wheel forward revolving is larger than that in wheel backward revolving. It is consistent with the phenomena that upper eccentric wear often appears on the brake shoe in practice. Further research reveals that the degree of the eccentric wear is determined by the braking force action style, which is the theoretical basis for the design revision. In addition, the RecurDyn Multi-body Dynamics software is used to build the rigid-flexible coupling dynamics model for the foundation brake unit. The simulation experiment verified the analysis result. The research outcome provides the theoretical basis and technical support for further design improvement of the foundation brake unit in railway freight cars.

Based on multi-body Dynamics theory, the 1/4 multi-rigid model of double wishbone suspension of automobile in ADAMS/View is created, and use ANSYS software to analyze torsion beam flexibility. Furthermore, the rigid-flexibility model has been created and the rigid change of suspension line along with the tire dynamics change is simulated. The result shows that the rigid-flexible coupling model is more accuracy than the multi-rigid one and fits the practical situation even better. This paper proposes an efficient method for analyzing the rigid of double-wishbone suspension vertical line.

Finite element model of track in frog zone is built by vehicle-turnout system dynamics. Considering variation of rail section and elastic support, bending deformation of turnout sleeper, spacer block and sharing pad effects, the track integral rigidity distribution in longitudinal direction is calculated in the model. Vehicle-turnout rigid-flexible coupling model is built by finite element method (FEM), multi-body system (MBS) dynamics and Hertz contact theory. With the regularity solution that different stiffness is applied for rubber pad under sharing pad of different turnout sleeper zone, analysis the variation of vertical acceleration of bogie and wheelset, rail vertical displacement and wheel-rail interaction force, this paper proves that setting reasonable rubber pad stiffness is an efficient method to solve rigidity irregularity problem.

It is worthwhile to design a more accurate dynamic model for air springs, to investigate the dynamic behaviour of an air spring suspension, and to analyse and guide the design of vehicles with air spring suspensions. In this study, a dynamic model of air spring was established, considering the heat transfer process of the air springs. Two different types of air spring were tested, and the experimental results verified the effectiveness of the air spring model compared with the traditional model. The key factors affecting the computation accuracy were studied and checked by comparing the results of the experiments and simulations. The new dynamic model of the air spring was integrated into the full-vehicle multi-body dynamics model, in order to investigate the air suspension behaviour and vehicle dynamics characteristics. The co-simulation method using ADAMS and MATLAB/Simulink was applied to integration of the air spring model with the full-vehicle multi-body dynamics model.

Misalignment on sun gear in planetary gear is easily occurred and it usually causes serious problem of work efficiency and lifetime with the change of planet load sharing. For study on the influence of sun gear misalignment on load sharing, multibody dynamics simulation is employed in this paper. First of all, 3D geometry model of planetary gear is built by Solidworks. Based on 3D model, multi-body dynamics model of planetary gear is built by MSC.ADAMS and calculate meshing forces between sun gear and planet gears with each type of sun gear misalignment which are angular, radial and axial type. Based on this meshing force result, load sharing factor is calculated and the results of influence of each misalignment type to load sharing factor is obtained. Finally, gear lifetime is estimated by AGMA gear fatigue strength estimation method with load sharing factor. According to the results, radial misalignment is the most influence to load sharing factor and gear lifetime.

This paper introduces a complex multi-body dynamics model which is established to simulate the dynamic behaviors of a multi-stage hybrid planetary gearing based on the finite element method and the software ADAMS. The finite element method is used to introduce deformable ring-gears and sun-gears by using 3D brick units. A whole multi-body dynamics model is established in the software ADAMS. Mesh stiffness variation excitation and gear tooth contact loss are intrinsically considered. A rich spectrum of dynamic phenomena is shown in the multi-stage hybrid planetary gearing. The results show that the static strength of main parts of the gearing is strong enough and the main vibration and noises are excited by the dynamic mesh forces acting on the tooth of planet-gears and ring-gears.
