Very stiff floor system in a residential-commercial building causes some problems in the numerical analysis procedure due to significant difference in stiffness with adjacent elements. Static analysis of structure with a stiff transfer-floor can be performed approximately in two steps for upper and lower parts for the structure. However, it is impossible to perform dynamic analysis in two steps with separate models. An efficient method for dynamic analysis of a structure with a right floor system is proposd in this study. The matrix condensation technique is employed to reduce the degree of freedom for upper and lower parts of the structure and a beam elements with rigid bodies at both ends are introduce to model the rigid floor system. Efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are verified through analysis of several example structures.

CAD systems offer a variety of techniques for designing and rendering models of static 3D objects and even of mechanisms, but relatively few tools exist for interactively specifying arbitrary movements of rigid bodies through space. Such tools are essential, not only for artistic animation, but also, for planning and demonstrating assembly and disassembly procedure of manufactured products. A rigid body motion is a continuous mapping from the time domain to a set of positions. To relieve the designers from the burden of specifying this mapping in abstract mathematical terms, combinations of simple rigid motion primitives, such as linear translations or constant axis rotations, are often used. These simple motions are planar and thus ill-suited for approximating arbitrary motions in 3D-space. Instead, we propose the screw motion primitive, a special combination of linear translations and constant axis rotations, which has a simple geometric representation that can be automatically and unambiguously computed from the starting and ending positions of the moving body. Although, any two positions may be interpolated by an infinity of motions, we chose the screw motion for its relative generality and its computational advantages. The paper covers original algorithms for computing the screw motions from interpolated positions and envelopes of swept regions to predict collisions.

This paper presents a novel ARAP (as-rigid-as-possible) approach to real-time simulation of physics-based deformation. To cope with one, two and three dimensional deformable bodies in an efficient, robust and uniform manner, we introduce a deformation graph of oriented particles and formulate the corresponding ARAP deformation energy. For stable time integration of the oriented particles, we develop an implicit integration scheme formulated in a variational form. Our method seeks the optimal positions and rotations of the oriented particles by iteratively applying an alternating local/global optimization scheme. The proposed method is easy to implement and computationally efficient to simulate complex deformable models in real time.

An unrestrained plane rigid body resting on a horizontal surface which shakes horizontally and vertically may assume one of the five modes of response: rest, slide, slide-rock, rock, and free flight. The first four are nontrivial modes of motion. It is important to study which one of these responses is started from rest as in most studies it is often assumed that the initial mode is the particular mode of response. Criteria governing the initiation of modes are first briefly discussed. It is shown that the commencement of response modes depends on the aspect ratio of the body, coefficients of static and kinetic friction at the body-base interface, and the magnitude of maximum base accelerations. Considering the last two factors as random variables, the initiation of response modes is next studied from a probabilistic point of view. Type 1 extreme value and lognormal distributions are employed for maximum base excitations and coefficient of friction respectively. Analytical expressions for computing the probability values of each mode of response are derived. The effects of slenderness ratio, vertical acceleration, and statistical distributions of maximum acceleration and coefficient of friction are shown through numerical results and plots.

Roll forming process is simulated with a commercial FEM code LS-DYNA. The rolls are treated as rigid bodies rotating with a constant angular velocity. The strip and the rolls are modeled with 4-node plate elements. It is assumed that the nodes along the front end of the strip move along paths given by sine functions. It is found that the analysis can be applied to the optimal design of forming rolls. With these analyses, it is expected that forming defects can be avoided and process development efforts can be reduced.

Fracture of tracheostomy tube with subsequent migration into the tracheobronchial tree is rare, but tracheobronchial foreign body in child carries the potentially fatal risk of respiratory obstruction, We report a case of a 5-year-old girl who had aspirated a fractured tracheostomy tube which was removed under rigid bronchoscope.

In this paper, we study the instantaneous geometric properties of motion of rigid bodies in the Lorentzian plane. For this purpose we define Lorentzian form of Bottemas instantaneous invariants. In these regards, we obtain the necessary and sufficient condition of a Lorentzian plane to be at Cardan position with respect to these invariants.

For that the attitude control performance test of the satellite, dynamic analysis of satellite structure performed in reference with KOREASAT, and the equation of motion of rigid bodies was derivated. For attitude stability, Lyapunov's stability theorem and state space expression were applied to dynamic equation of satellite. To prove efficiency of our method, simulations are performed and result are shown.

In this paper, crashworthiness of the KHST carbodies is evaluated by numerical simulation under the SNCF accident scenario (collision against a movable rigid mass of 15 ton at 110 kph) and the scenario of train-to-train collision at 30 kph. The numerical results of the several simulations, such as the accident collided against a deformable dump truck of 15 tons at 110 kph, the driver's dummy analysis using the integrated analysis method, and the accident of train-to-train collision for the first three units at 30 kph, show good performances in the viewpoint of energy absorption and survival space.

Fishes usually form a group in water to minimize drag coefficient and this fish schooling is one of representative problems in computational fluid dynamics. In this research, we simulated two fishes as a rectangle. We arranged rectangle horizontal and vertical, then we changed distance between two rectangles and simulated pressure of fluid and drag coefficient. We could find the best distance and position of two fishes that makes minimum drag coefficient.
