For the analysis of dynamic behavior of dynamic behavior of multibody systems by cartesian coordinate method, maximal sets of generalized coordinates and maximum numbers of differential equation and constraints must be considered. Therefore the inefficiency of the increase of CPU time is occurred. This paper is to analyze the dynamic system by using the relative coordinate method without violating the geometric condition of systems. The graph theory and system topology were used for this study. The dynamic systems could be analyzed by the automatic generation of the informations like equation of motion, constraints, and external forces etc. And the results were compared and verified with dynamic commercial package DADS.

The look-ahead preview control with the use of limited bandwidth active suspensions is presented. Both a linearized racked vehicle model and a complex nonlinear model based on a commercial multibody dynamic program are used to verify the performance of preview control. The performance of the preview control system is evaluated on the ride quality which is estimated from the acceleration of the driver position. Due to the practical advantages associated with the use of limited bandwidth active control in comparison with full bandwidth systems, the results are considered important to the future development of active tracked vehicle suspensions.

It is difficult for most of passenger cars to attach various types of suspensions. The modular experimental vehicle, which is designed to exchange suspension systems, has been developed to evaluate the effect of design changes of a suspension upon ride and handling characteristics of a vehicle. In order to enable the assemblage between modules, the experimental vehicle design is based on a space frame construction through finite element analysis. Moreover, module frames and brackets are designed using three-dimensional solid modeler to check the interference between each part of a vehicle. Steady-state and transient road tests were performed. Multibody dynamic model and simplified linear vehicle model are made to compare with the tests. The results of simulations and tests show the performance and validity of this experimental vehicle.

This paper presents a systematic method for the dynamic analysis of flexible mechanical systems containing closed kinematic loops. Kinematics between pairs of contiguous flexible bodies is described with the joint coordinates and the deformation modal coordinates. The cut-joint constraint equations associated with the closed kinematic loops are derived, simply using the geometric conditions. The equations of motions are initially written in terms of the joint and modal coordinates using the velocity transformation technique. Lagrange multipliers associated with the cut-joint constraints for closed-loop systems are then eliminated systematically using the generalized coordinate partitioning method, resulting to a minimal set of equations of motion.

A computational method for the dynamic analysis of a constrained mechanical system is presented in this paper. The partial velocity matrix, which is the null space of the Jacobian of the constraint equations, is used as the key ingredient for the derivation of reduced equations of motion. The acceleration constraint equations are solved simultaneously with the equations of motion. Thus, the total number of equations to be integrated is equivalent to that of the pseudo generalized coordinates, which denote all the variables employed to describe the configuration of the system of concern. Two well-known conventional methods are briefly introduced and compared with the present method. Three numerical examples are solved to demonstrate the solution accuracy, the computational efficiency, and the numerical stability of the present method.

The purpose of this study is to develop a high-speed combine harvester. The performance was evaluated by composing a dynamic simulation model of a threshing cylinder and analyzing the amount of threshed rice grain during threshing operations. The rotational speed of the threshing cylinder was set at 10 rpm intervals from 500 rpm until 540 rpm, based on the rated rotational speed of 507 rpm. The rice stem model was developed using the EDEM software using measured rice stem properties. Multibody dynamics software was utilized to model the threshing cylinder and tank comprising five sections below the threshing cylinder, and the threshing performance was evaluated by weighing the grain collected in the threshing tank during threshing simulations. The simulation results showed that section 1 and 2 threshed more grains compared to section 3 and 4. It was also found that when the threshing speed was higher, the larger number of grains were threshed. Only simulation was conducted in this study. Therefore, the validation of the simulation model is required. A comparative analysis to validate the simulation model by field experiment will be conducted in the future.

In this paper, dynamic response analysis of a heave compensation system is performed for offshore drilling operations based on multibody dynamics. With this simulation, the efficiency of the heave compensation system can be virtually confirmed before it is applied to drilling operations. The heave compensation system installed on a semi-submersible platform consists of a passive and an active heave compensator. The passive and active heave compensator are composed of several bodies that are connected to each other with various types of joints. Therefore, to carry out the dynamic response analysis, the dynamics kernel was developed based on mutibody dynamics. To construct the equations of motion of the multibody system and to determine the unknown accelerations and constraint forces, the recursive Newton-Euler formulation was adapted. Functions of the developed dynamics kernel were verified by comparing them with other commercial dynamics kernels. The hydrostatic force with nonlinear effects, the linearized hydrodynamic force, and the pneumatic and hydraulic control forces were considered as the external forces that act on the platform of the semi-submersible rig and the heave compensation system. The dynamic simulation of the heave compensation system of the semi-submersible rig, which is available for drilling operations with a 3,600m water depth, was carried out. From the results of the simulation, the efficiency of the heave compensation system were evaluated before they were applied to the offshore drilling operations. Moreover, the calculated constraint forces could serve as reference data for the design of the mechanical system.

To analyze a multibody system, this paper proposes an implicit numerical integration method for joint coordinates subsystem synthesis method. To verify the proposed method, a multibody model for an unmanned robot vehicle, which consists of six identical independent suspension systems, is developed. The symbolic method is applied to compute the system Jacobian matrix for the implicit integration method. The proposed method is also verified by performing rough terrain run-over simulation in comparison with the conventional implicit integration method. In addition, to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed method, the CPU time obtained by using this method is compared with that obtained by using the conventional implicit method.

To meet the challenge of testing increasingly complex automotive control systems, the real-time hardware-in-the-loop(HIL) simulation technology has been developed. In this paper, a strategy for evaluation of semiactive suspension systems using real-time HIL simulation is presented. A multibody vehicle model is adopted to simulate vehicle dynamic motions accurately. Accuracy of the vehicle simulation results is compared to that of the real vehicle field test and proven to be very accurate. The controller and stepping motor to adjust semi-active damper stage are equipped as external hardwares and connected to the real-time computer which has vehicle dynamic model. Open and closed loop test methods are used to evaluate a controlled suspension system and the system's operations are verified it is found that the proposed evaluation methods can be used well for the verification of semi-active suspension systems.

In this paper, the column space and null space of the Jacobian matrix were obtained by using the pseudo-inverse method and projection matrix. The equations of motion of the system were replaced by independent acceleration components using the null space matrix. The proposed method has the following advantages. (1) It is simple to derive the null space. (2) The efficiency is improved by getting rid of constrained force terms. (3) Neither null space updating nor coordinate partitioning method is required. The suggested algorithm is applied to a three-dimensional vehicle model to show the efficiency.
