Abstract

Chains are important machine components being applied in cars, in gears and in armoured vehicles. The dynamics of chains typically is characterized by free motion and by contact processes, which may include impacts and friction. Therefore modeling by multibody theory augmented by methods of contact mechanics represents an appropriate way to evaluate the dynamical chain behavior. Paper gives some examples.
