Global Impact Dynamic Modeling and Verification of a Flexible Beam with Large Overall Motion

Abstract EN

The theoretical modeling, numerical simulation, and experimental verification for the impact dynamics of a flexible beam with large overall motion are researched.

Based on the rigid-flexible coupling dynamic theory of flexible multibody system, the rigid-flexible coupling dynamic equations of the beam are established.

On the use of the continuous contact force method (CCFM) and the contact constraint method (CCM), the respective global impact dynamic equations of the system are derived to achieve dynamic transformation and solution in different stages including impact and unimpact status.

The experimental study on the impact dynamics of the flexible beam is investigated, and the dynamic response in the impact process is obtained.

The experimental results are compared with the results of the impact dynamic simulation and the finite element method (FEM) simulation.

The system's dynamic behaviors in the impact process are analyzed, and the accuracy of the two impact dynamic theories is verified.
