The main purpose of this paper is to discuss a method for a dynamic modeling and analysis of multibody systems with translational clearance joints. The method is based on the nonsmooth dynamics approach, in which the interaction of the elements that constitute a translational clearance joint is modeled with multiple frictional unilateral constraints. In the following, the most fundamental issue...

in this paper, the notions of $(t,s)$-composition matrix and$(t,s)$-interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix areintroduced where $(t,s)$ is a dual pair of triangular module. theyare the generalization of composition matrix and interval-valuedintuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix. furthermore, theirproperties and characterizations are presented. then a new methodbased on $tilde{...
