چکیده
A recently developed extrapolation method for integrating the equations of motion of mechanical multibody systems is investigated. The inherent parallelism of the extrapolation scheme is used for an implementation on a transputer network. The eeciency of the parallel algorithm is demonstrated at a multibody system which is part of a mechanical printing device.

A real-time recursive dynamic model for vehicle driving simulators
This paper presents the Real-Time Recursive Dynamics (RTRD) model that is developed for driving simulators. The model could be implemented in the Driving Simulator. The RTRD can also be used for off-line high-speed dynamics analysis, compared with commercial multibody dynamics codes, to speed up mechanical design process. An overview of RTRD is presented in the paper. Basic models for specific ...
متن کاملAn approach to multibody simulation of pneumo-mechanical systems
This work describes a method for the simulation of multiple pneumatic actuators in a context of multi body mechanical systems. The model of the single actuator is based on elliptical approximation of non-linear pneumatic devices; friction and sticking phenomena are considered as well. Pneumatic devices introduce forces and new state variables into the complete multibody system: we developed a s...

متن کاملParallel computation approaches for flexible multibody dynamics simulations
Finite element based formulations for flexible multibody systems are becoming increasingly popular and as the complexity of the configurations to be treated increases, so does the computational cost. It seems natural to investigate the applicability of parallel processing to this type of problems; domain decomposition techniques have been used extensively for this purpose. In this approach, the...
