Numerical simulation of nonholonomic rigid-body systems

The paper proposes computer algebra system (CAS) algorithms for computer-assisted derivation of the equations of motion for systems of rigid bodies with holonomic and nonholonomic constraints that are linear with respect to the generalized velocities. The main advantages of using the D’Alembert-Lagrange principle for the CSA-based derivation of the equations of motion for nonholonomic systems of rigid bodies are demonstrated. Among them are universality, algorithmizability, computational efficiency, and simplicity of deriving equations for holonomic and nonholonomic systems in terms of generalized coordinates or pseudo-velocities __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 42, No. 9, pp. 106–115, September 2006.     

Nonholonomic systems with non-linear constraint equations

The development of a form of Lagrange's equations applicable with nonholonomic systems with non-linear constraint equations is presented and discussed. The analysis is based upon, and is an extension of. a method developed by the authors for nonholonomic systems with linear constraint equations in the generalized coordinate derivatives. The method is illustrated with the problem of the “balancing pole”.     

Algebraic structure and Poisson method for a weakly nonholonomic system

The algebraic structure and the Poisson method for a weakly nonholonomic system are studied. The differential equations of motion of the system can be written in a contravariant algebra form and its algebraic structure is discussed. The Poisson theory for the systems which possess Lie algebra structure is generalized to the weakly nonholonomic system. An example is given to illustrate the application of the result.     

On the stability of equilibria of nonholonomic systems with nonlinear constraints

Lyapunov＇s first method, extended by V. V. Kozlov to nonlinear mechani- cal systems, is applied to the study of the instability of the position of equilibrium of a mechanical system moving in the field of conservative and dissipative forces. The mo- tion of the system is limited by ideal nonlinear nonholonomic constraints. Five cases determined by the relationship between the degree of the first nontrivial polynomials in Maclaurin＇s series for the potential energy and the functions that can be generated from the equations of nonlinear nonholonomic constraints are analyzed. In the three eases, the theorem on the instability of the position of equilibrium of nonholonomic systems with linear homogeneous constraints （V. V. Kozlov （1986）） is generalized to the case of nonlin- ear nonhomogeneous constraints. In the other two cases, new theorems are set extending the result from V. V. Kozlov （1994） to nonholonomic systems with nonlinear constraints.     

Mei’s symmetry theorem for time scales nonshifted mechanical systems

We focus on Mei symmetry for time scales nonshifted mechanical systems within Lagrangian framework and its resulting new conserved quantities. Firstly, the dynamic equations of time scales nonshifted holonomic systems and time scales nonshifted nonholonomic systems are derived from the generalized Hamilton’s principle. Secondly, the definitions of Mei symmetry on time scales are given and its criterions are deduced. Finally, Mei’s symmetry theorems for time scales nonshifted holonomic conservative systems, time scales nonshifted holonomic nonconservative systems and time scales nonshifted nonholonomic systems are established and proved, and new conserved quantities of above systems are obtained. Results are illustrated with two examples.

Forward and inverse dynamics of nonholonomic mechanical systems

This paper deals with the forward and the inverse dynamic problems of mechanical systems subjected to nonholonomic constraints. The intrinsically dual nature of these two problems is identified and utilised to develop a systematic approach to formulate and solve them according to an unified framework. The proposed methodology is based on the fundamental equations of constrained motion which derive from Gauss’s principle of least constraint. The main advantage arising from using the fundamental equations of constrained motion is that they represent an effective method capable to derive the generalised acceleration of a mechanical system, constrained in general by a set of nonholonomic constraints, together with the generalized constraint forces (forward dynamics). When the constraint equations are used to represent the desired behaviour of the mechanical system under study, the generalised constraint forces deriving from the fundamental equations of constrained motion provide the control actions which reproduce the specified motion for the system (inverse dynamics). This approach is systematically extended to underactuated mechanical systems introducing a new method named underactuation equivalence principle. The underactuation equivalence principle is founded on the key idea that the underactuation property of a mechanical system can be mathematically represented using a particular set of nonholonomic constraint equations. Two simple case-studies are reported to exemplify the proposed methodology. In the first case-study the computation of the generalised constraint forces relative to the revolute joint constraints of a physical pendulum is illustrated. In the second case-study the calculation of the control action which solves the swing-up problem for an inverted pendulum is described.     

Conservation laws of nonholonomic nonconservative dynamical systems

In this paper conservation laws of nonholonomic nonconservative dynamical systems are studied by using the differential variational principles of Jourdain and the generalized Noether's identities of nonconservative systems subject to first order nonlinear nonholonomic constraints are provided.

Direct sensitivity analysis of multibody systems with holonomic and nonholonomic constraints via an index-3 augmented Lagrangian formulation with projections

Optimizing the dynamic response of mechanical systems is often a necessary step during the early stages of product development cycle. This is a complex problem that requires to carry out the sensitivity analysis of the system dynamics equations if gradient-based optimization tools are used. These dynamics equations are often expressed as a highly nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations or differential-algebraic equations, if a dependent set of generalized coordinates with its corresponding kinematic constraints is used to describe the motion. Two main techniques are currently available to perform the sensitivity analysis of a multibody system, namely the direct differentiation and the adjoint variable methods. In this paper, we derive the equations that correspond to the direct sensitivity analysis of the index-3 augmented Lagrangian formulation with velocity and acceleration projections. Mechanical systems with both holonomic and nonholonomic constraints are considered. The evaluation of the system sensitivities requires the solution of a tangent linear model that corresponds to the Newton–Raphson iterative solution of the dynamics at configuration level, plus two additional nonlinear systems of equations for the velocity and acceleration projections. The method was validated in the sensitivity analysis of a set of examples, including a five-bar linkage with spring elements, which had been used in the literature as benchmark problem for similar multibody dynamics formulations, a point-mass system subjected to nonholonomic constraints, and a full-scale vehicle model.
