Dynamic Contact between a Wire Rope and a Pulley Using Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Wire rope and pulley devices are used in various machines. To use these machines more safely, it is necessary to analyze the behavior of the contact between them. In this study, we represent a wire rope by a numerical model of a flexible body. This flexible body is expressed in the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF), and the model includes the normal contact force and the frictional force between the wire rope and the pulley. The normal contact force is expressed by spring-damper elements, and the frictional force is expressed by the Quinn method. The advantage of the Quinn method is that it reduces the numerical problems associated with the discontinuities in Coulomb friction at zero velocity. By using the numerical model, simulations are performed, and the validity of this model is shown by comparing its results with those of an experiment. Through numerical simulations, we confirm the proposed model for the contact between the wire rope and the pulley. We confirmed that the behavior of the wire rope changes when both the bending elastic modulus of the wire rope and the mass added to each end of the wire rope are changed.

Integration of the Equations of Motion of Multibody Systems Using Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation
Recently, a finite element formulation, called the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF), was proposed for the large rotation and deformation analysis of flexible bodies. In this formulation, absolute position and slope coordinates are used to define the finite element configuration. Infinitesimal or finite rotations are not used as nodal coordinates. The ANCF finite elements have many u...

Deformable components in multibody systems are subject to kinematic constraints that represent mechanical joints and specified motion trajectories. These constraints can, in general, be described using a set of nonlinear algebraic equations that depend on the system generalized coordinates and time. When the kinematic constraints are augmented to the differential equations of motion of the syst...
