Dynamics of a rigid body and of multibody systems (70E99)

Review text

Articulated systems in the sense of this paper are systems composed of objects and of connections between objects. Three different kinds of articulated systems are presented. In electrical systems the objects are the nodes of a network, and the connections are subsystems composed of impedances, voltage sources and current sources. In the first kind of mechanical systems presented the objects are bodies whereas the connections are joints characterized by kinematical constraints. Also in the second kind of mechanical systems presented the objects are bodies whereas the connections are springs and dampers. It is the purpose to point out that, inspite of the apparent differences in nature of these systems, there is a common characteristic, namely an interconnection topology. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0842.00046].
