    Unilateral Problems of Dynamics

    Contact processes may be represented by local discretization, by a rigid approach or by a mixed method using both ideas. For the dynamics of mechanical systems a rigid body approach is described achieving good...

    Modeling of a New Telerobot

    This paper deals with the modeling of a robot with a new kinematicdesign. All joint movements in this robot are transmitted via concentrictubes and bevel gears. D'Alembert's principle is used to derivethe equa...

    Formulations and Solution Methods of The Dynamical Spatial Contact Problem

    Mechanical systems in which impacts and stick-slip phenomena take place, are modeled as multibody system with time-varying topology. Therefore the description of the system dynamics is structure-varying. Each ...

    Experimental Investigation of Impacts with Friction

    Impacts in Multi-Body-Systems (MBS) occur if the bodies come into contact among each other or among the environment. Many parameters influence how this contact process must be modelled to give a realistic pred...

    Chimney Dampers

    Towerlike structures may be excited by wind and by Karman-vortices. Dam** can be achieved by a package of plates being moved by a pendulum fixed at the upper end of the tower. This paper presents a theory to...

    Multiple impacts with friction in rigid multibody systems

    An impact model for two-dimensional contact situations is developed which contains the main physical effects of a compliance element in the normal direction and a series of a compliance and Coulomb friction el...

    Hammering in diesel-engine driveline systems

    The gears of driveline systems in diesel engines must be designed with large backlashes within the gear meshes due to the large temperature operating range of such systems. This leads to hammering processes wi...

    Theoretical and experimental investigations of gear-rattling

    Rattling vibrations in gear boxes are a noise problem of modern cars following the requirement to be as quiet as possible. The paper presents an uniform approach to model such vibrations based on classical imp...

    Description of chaotic motion by an invariant probability density

    An observation of single trajectories exhibiting chaotic motion turns out to be disadvantageous because even smallest variations of the initial conditions grow exponentially in time and result in an unpredicta...

    Rattling models from deterministic to stochastic processes

    Rattling in gears is a consequence of backlashes. It can be generated in those gear-wheels of a car transmission system, which are not under load. Models of rattling are established in three stages. from a str...
