Abstract: | The objective of this article is to present an efficient extension ofRosenthal's order-n algorithm to multibody systems containing closedloops. The equations of motion are created by using relative coordinatesand partial velocity theory. Closed topological loops are handled by cutjoint technique. The set of constraint equations of cut joints isadjoined to the system's equation of motion by using Lagrangemultipliers. This results in the equation of motion as adifferential-algebraic equation (DAE) rather than an ordinarydifferential equation. This DAE is then solved by applying the extendedRosenthal's order-n algorithm proposed in this article. While solvingDAE, violation of the kinematic constraint equations of cut joints iscorrected by coordinate projection method. Some numerical simulationsare carried out to demonstrate efficiency of the proposed method. |
