Abstract
The paper presents a modeling method of flexible multibody dynamics in the context of implicit Lagrangian systems. The main idea is based on a Diakoptical method originally developed by Kron, which reticulates required kinematical and dynamical relations into separate ones and then incorporate them into an interconnection of implicit Lagrangian systems. By using the idea, we first show how a flexible beam attached to a rigid base undergoing a large overall motion can be modeled as an interconnected implicit Lagrangian system, in which geometrically nonlinear couplings between flexible deformations and large overall motions are incorporated into a nonlinear finite element model. Lastly, some numerical results are shown in comparison with the model developed by Simo and Vu-Quoc.
