Abstract
In this paper we are interested in the dynamic behavior of a slider-crank mechanism with single and two revolute clearance joints. Due to the clearance existence in the revolute joints, it is important to choose an appropriate contact force model in analyzing the dynamic response of a slider-crank mechanism with clearances. The dynamic equations are established by combining the Newton–Euler equations with modified contact force model and improved Coulomb friction force model, and the Baumgarte stabilization approach is used to improve the numerical stability. According to numerical and experimental results, the method of continuous contact can be verified to be reasonable. Comparing dynamic the response between one clearance joint and two clearance joints in a crank-slider mechanism, it is easy to find a significant mutual coupling region due to the presence of two clearance joints by simply contact figures. The dynamic response in a mechanism with two clearance joints is not a simple superposition of that in mechanism with one clearance joint. Therefore, all the joints in a multibody system should be modeled as clearance joints.
