Tóm tắt

The dynamic analysis of complex engineering systems likeautomobiles is often relieved by a modular approach to make it treatableby a team of engineers. The modular decomposition is based onengineering intuition of corresponding engineering disciplines. In thispaper, a modular formulation of multibody systems is proposed which isbased on the block representation of a multibody system withcorresponding input and output quantities. Advantages of this modularapproach range from independent and parallel modeling of subsystems overthe easy exchange of the resulting modules to the use of differentsoftware for each module. However, the modular simulation of the globalsystem by coupling of simulators may result in an unstable integrationif an algebraic loop exists between the subsystems. This numericalphenomenon is analyzed and a method of simulator coupling whichguarantees stability for general systems including algebraic loops isintroduced. Numerical results of the modular simulation of aslider-crank mechanism are presented.
