... unexplored. This paper extends the modified inertia representation (MIR) to the constrained rigid multibody systems. By using the orthogonal projection, we show the possibility to derive the MIR for many types of non-minimal coordinates. We present examples of the derivation of the MIR for both planar...

... 18 05 2012 In many industrial applications, complex mechanical systems can often be described by multibody systems (MBS) that interact with electrical, flowing, elastic structures, and other subsystems. Efficient, precise dynamic analysis for such coupled mechanical systems has become...
