Abstract The mixed method of Transfer Matrix Method for Multibody System (MSTMM) and Finite Element Method (FEM) is introduced in this paper. The transfer matrix and transfer equation of multi-rigid-body subsystem are deduced by MSTMM. The mass matrix and stiffness matrix of flexible subsystem are calculated by FEM and then its dynamics equation is established. The connection point relations among subsystems are deduced and the overall transfer matrix and transfer equation of multi-rigid-flexible system are established. The vibration characteristics of the system are obtained by solving the system frequency equation. The computational results of two numerical examples show that the proposed method have good agreements with MSTMM and FEM. Multi-rigid-flexible-body system with multi-end beam can be solved by proposed method, which extends the application field of MSTMM and provides a theoretical basis for calculating complex systems with multi input end flexible bodies of arbitrary shape.

The transfer matrix method for multibody systems has been developed for 20 years and improved constantly. The new version of transfer matrix method for multibody system and the automatic deduction method of overall transfer equation presented in recent years make it more convenient of the method for engineering application. In this article, by first defining branch subsystem, any complex multibody system may be regarded as the assembling of branch subsystems and simple chain subsystems. If there are closed loops in the system, the loops should be “cut off,” thus a pair of “new boundaries” are generated at each “cutting-off” point. The relationship between the state vectors of the pair of “new boundaries” may be described by a supplement equation. Based on above work, the automatic deduction method of overall transfer equation for tree systems as well as closed-loop-and-branch-mixed systems is formed. The results of numerical examples obtained by the automatic deduction method and ADAMS software for tree system dynamics as well as mixed system dynamics have good agreements, which validate the features of proposed method such as high computational speed, more effective for complex systems, no need of the system global dynamics equation, highly programmable, as well as convenient popularization and application in engineering.
