The analytical mobility method for dynamically loaded journal bearings was presented, with the intent to include it in a general computational program, such as the dynamic analysis program, that has been developed for the dynamic analysis of general mechanical systems. An illustrative example and numerical results were presented, with the efficiency of the method being discussed in the process of their presentation.

Based on the automatic dynamic analysis of mechanical systems software, both rigid and flexible models of the space-swing mechanism for the superpave gyratory compactor are developed. The structural analysis shows that the length and the initial phase of cranks, and the assembling accuracy (coordinates) of some points are very sensitive relative to the waving of compaction angle. Greater rigidity helps stabilize the change of the compaction angles.

Abstract We investigate in this paper the different approaches that can be derived from the use of the Hamiltonian or canonical equations of motion for constrained mechanical systems with the intention of responding to the question of whether the use of these equations leads to more efficient and stable numerical algorithms than those coming from acceleration based formalisms. In this process, we propose a new penalty based canonical description of the equations of motion of constrained mechanical systems. This technique leads to a reduced set of first order ordinary differential equations in terms of the canonical variables with no Lagrange’s multipliers involved in the equations. This method shows a clear advantage over the previously proposed acceleration based formulation, in terms of numerical efficiency. In addition, we examine the use of the canonical equations based on independent coordinates, and conclude that in this second case the use of the acceleration based formulation is more advantageous than the canonical counterpart.

Abstract Vibration normal modes and static correction modes have been previously used to model flexible bodies for dynamic analysis of mechanical systems. The efficiency and accuracy of using these modes to model a system depends on both the flexibility of each body and the applied loads. This paper develops a generalized method for the generation of a set of Ritz vectors to model flexible bodies for dynamic analysis of multi-body mechanical systems. The Ritz vectors are generated using the distribution of dynamic loading on a flexible body. Therefore they form the most efficient vector basis for the spatial distribution of the loadings. The Ritz vectors can be re-generated when the system undergoes significant changes of its configuration and the regeneration procedure is inexpensive. The combinations of vibration normal modes and the proposed Ritz vectors thus form more efficient and accurate vector bases for the modeling of flexible bodies for dynamic analysis.

Abstract This paper presents a new approach to optimal design of large multibody spatial mechanical systems. This approach uses symbolic computing to generate the necessary equations for dynamic analysis and design sensitivity analysis. Identification of system topology is carried out using graph theory. The equations of motion are formulated in terms of relative joint coordinates through the use of velocity transformation matrix. Design sensitivity analysis is carried out using the Direct Differentiation method applied to the relative joint coordinate formulation for spatial systems. Symbolic manipulation programs are used to develop subroutines which provide information for dynamic and design sensitivity analysis. These subroutines are linked to a general purpose computer program which performs dynamic analysis, design sensitivity analysis, and optimization. An example is presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the approach.

An analysis for operating characteristics of piston lubrication system is performed based on the numerical model in this study. Dynamic piston lubrication characteristics such as oil film pressure and thickness distribution can be analyzed through a numerical model with an integration of elastohydrodynamics and multi-flexible-body dynamics (MFBD). In particular, the oil film thickness variation by elastic deformation is considered in the elastohydrodynamic analysis by using the modal reduction method in MFBD system. And this effect is reflected on the fluid governing equations to evaluate the oil film pressure in the lubrication region. A series of process proposed in this study is available for the analysis of realistic elastohydrodynamic lubrication phenomenon. A numerical example for the piston lubrication system is also demonstrated.
