Abstract: For the modeling of large deformations in multibody dynamics problems, the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF) is advantageous since in general, the ANCF leads to a constant mass matrix. The proposed ANCF beam ...

Abstract: Laminated plates have a wide range of applications in engineering, and their flexibility becomes increasingly significant with the development of lightweighting technology. The absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF) ...

Abstract: A standard technique to reduce the system size of flexible multibody systems is the component mode synthesis. Selected mode shapes are used to approximate the flexible deformation of each single body numerically. Conventionally, ...

Abstract: The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive review of the finite element absolute nodal coordinate formulation, which can be used to obtain efficient solutions to large deformation problems of constrained multibody ...

Abstract: The accuracy of a multibody model to predict the behavior of a real physical system depends heavily on the correct choice of model parameters. Identifying unknown system parameters that cannot be computed or measured ...

Abstract: Motion reconstruction and navigation require accurate orientation estimation. Modern orientation estimation methods utilize filtering algorithms, such as the Kalman filter or Madgwick's algorithm. However, these methods ...

Abstract: In industrial practice, the floating frame of reference formulation (FFRF)—often combined with the component mode synthesis (CMS) in order to reduce the number of flexible degreesoffreedom—is the common approach to ...

Abstract: This work addresses pipes conveying fluid and axially moving beams undergoing large deformations. A novel two-dimensional beam finite element is presented, based on the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF) with an ...
