About This Book

Planar Multibody Dynamics: Formulation, Programming with MATLABĀ®, and Applications, Second Edition, provides sets of methodologies for analyzing the dynamics of mechanical systems, such as mechanisms and machineries, with coverage of both classical and modern principles. Using clear and concise language, the text introduces fundamental theories, computational methods, and program development for analyzing simple to complex systems. MATLAB is used throughout, with examples beginning with basic commands before introducing students to more advanced programming techniques. The simple programs developed in each chapter come together to form complete programs for different types of analysis.

Features



  • Two new chapters on free-body diagram and vector-loop concepts demonstrate that the modern computational techniques of formulating the equations of motion is merely an organized and systematic interpretation of the classical methods


  • A new chapter on modeling impact between rigid bodies is based on two concepts known as continuous and piecewise methods


  • A thorough discussion on modeling friction and the associated computational issues


  • The short MATLABĀ® programs that are listed in the book can be downloaded from a companion website


  • Several other MATLABĀ® programs and their user manuals can be downloaded from the companion website including: a general purpose program for kinematic, inverse dynamic, and forward dynamic analysis; a semi-general-purpose program that allows student to experiment with his or her own formulation of equations of motion; a special-purpose program for kinematic and inverse dynamic analysis of four-bar mechanisms


  • The preceding three sets of programs contain animation capabilities for easy visualization of the simulated motion


  • A greater range of examples, problems, and projects

Frequently asked questions

How do I cancel my subscription?
Simply head over to the account section in settings and click on ā€œCancel Subscriptionā€ - itā€™s as simple as that. After you cancel, your membership will stay active for the remainder of the time youā€™ve paid for. Learn more here.
Can/how do I download books?

What is the difference between the pricing plans?
Both plans give you full access to the library and all of Perlegoā€™s features. The only differences are the price and subscription period: With the annual plan youā€™ll save around 30% compared to 12 months on the monthly plan.
What is Perlego?
We are an online textbook subscription service, where you can get access to an entire online library for less than the price of a single book per month. With over 1 million books across 1000+ topics, weā€™ve got you covered! Learn more here.
Do you support text-to-speech?
Look out for the read-aloud symbol on your next book to see if you can listen to it. The read-aloud tool reads text aloud for you, highlighting the text as it is being read. You can pause it, speed it up and slow it down. Learn more here.
Is Planar Multibody Dynamics an online PDF/ePUB?
Yes, you can access Planar Multibody Dynamics by Parviz Nikravesh in PDF and/or ePUB format, as well as other popular books in Naturwissenschaften & Mechanik. We have over one million books available in our catalogue for you to explore.
