Abstract

The dynamic behavior of multi-section constructions with clearance during extending and retracting motion of the sections is analyzed. First, an appropriate physical modeling is introduced before next, the governing boundary value problem is derived by applying Hamilton's principle. Then, a classical discretization procedure is used to generate a coupled system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations as the corresponding truncated mathematical model. Performing appropriate simulations to be verified by results of an alternative software package and partly validated by some preliminary experiments, the vibrational behavior of the suggested type of multi-section telescoping systems can be studied in detail.
