Constrained Dynamics Computations

Download or read book Constrained Dynamics Computations written by Bud Fox and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical approach to the modelling and computation of real-world systems. Multibody dynamics, planar and spatial modelling, and numerical methods are all pursued to obtain information about the behaviour of various dynamical systems. Each study presents the method of modelling and the ensuing differential equations governing the system behaviour. Integration of the equations yields results which are carefully discussed and which indicate how useful information may be obtained from the study. The studies include planar mechanisms, heavy equipment, automobile crash simulation and a spatial planetary system example.
