Abstract

An important application of multibody dynamics is mechanism theory. Rigid and flexible bodies are widely applied for modeling of planar and spatial machines, for their dynamical analysis with respect to motion and strength, vibration and control, and for their optimization. Interacting machine parts result in a variety of contact problems. Some fundamentals and typical mechanism and machine problems will be presented.
