Part I of this paper deals with relationships between integrals of a set of nonlinear differential equations and integrals of equations obtained from such a set by a process of linearization. The terms “total linearization,” “reduction,” and “partial linearization” are introduced, a theorem is stated and proved in connection with each of these, and the use of each theorem is illustrated by means of an example. In Part II, the theorems are applied to differential equations of motion of mechanical systems.

Numerous unexplained failures of rotating machinery by nonsynchronous shaft whirling point to a possible driving mechanism or source of energy not identified by previously existing theory. A majority of these failures have been in machines characterized by overhung disks (or disks located close to one end of a bearing span) and/or high power and load torque. This paper gives exact solutions to the nonlinear differential equations of motion for a rotor having both of these characteristics and shows that high ratios of driving torque to damping can produce nonsynchronous whirling with destructively large amplitudes. Solutions are given for two cases: (1) viscous load torque and damping, and (2) load torque and damping proportional to the second power of velocity (aerodynamic case). Criteria are given for avoiding the torquewhirl condition.

Analysis of a flexible manipulator as an initial value problem, due to its large deformations, involves nonlinear ordinary differential equations of motion. In the present work, these equations are solved through the general Frechet derivatives and the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method directly. The results so obtained are compared with those of the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method. It is seen that both the results match each other well. Further considering the same manipulator as a boundary value problem, its governing equation is a highly nonlinear partial differential equation. Again applying the general Frechet derivatives and the GDQ method, it is seen that the results are in good match with the linear theory. In both cases, the general Frechet derivatives are introduced and successfully used for linearization. The results of the present study indicate that the GDQ method combined with the general Frechet derivatives can be successfully used for the solution of nonlinear differential equations.

A nonlinear purely rotational dynamic model of a multistage closed-form planetary gear set formed by two simple planetary stages is proposed in this study. The model includes time-varying mesh stiffness, excitation fluctuation and gear backlash nonlinearities. The nonlinear differential equations of motion are solved numerically using variable step-size Runge-Kutta. In order to obtain function expression of optimization objective, the nonlinear differential equations of motion are solved analytically using harmonic balance method (HBM). Based on the analytical solution of dynamic equations, the optimization mathematical model which aims at minimizing the vibration displacement of the low-speed carrier and the total mass of the gear transmission system is established. The optimization toolbox in MATLAB program is adopted to obtain the optimal solution. A case is studied to demonstrate the effectiveness of the dynamic model and the optimization method. The results show that the dynamic properties of the closed-form planetary gear transmission system have been improved and the total mass of the gear set has been decreased significantly.

A spatial pendulum with the vertical immobile axis and horizontal mobile axis is studied and the differential equations of motion are obtained applying the method of Lagrange equations. The equations of motion were obtained for the general case; the only simplifying hypothesis consists in neglecting the principal moments of inertia about the axes normal to the oscillation axes. The system of nonlinear differential equations was numerically integrated. The correctness of the obtained solutions was corroborated to the dynamical simulation of the motion via dynamical analysis software. The perfect concordance between the two solutions proves the rightness of the equations obtained.

This paper presents a numerical method, derived directly from the basic differential equations of motion and expressed in the form of recurrence-matrix of finite differences, that can be generally applied to all multi-degree-of-freedom structures subjected to dynamic forces or forced displacements on any masses at any instants of time. The movements of the system may be described by any form of generalised co-ordinates.

Using the main author's researches on the energies of acceleration and higher order equations of motion, this paper is devoted to new formulations in analytical dynamics of mechanical multibody systems (MBS). Integral parts of these systems are the mechanical robot structures, serial, parallel or mobile on which an application will be presented in order to highlight the importance of the differential motion equations in dynamics behavior. When the components of multibody mechanical systems or in its entirety presents rapid movements or is in transitory motion, are developed higher order variations in respect to time of linear and angular accelerations. According to research of the main author, they are integrated into higher order energies and these in differential equations of motion in higher order, which will lead to variations in time of generalized forces which dominate these types of mechanical systems. The establishing of these differential equations of motion, it is based on a generalization of a principle of analytical differential mechanics, known as the D`Alembert – Lagrange Principle.
