Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• A novel simulation software method for complex multibody systems is proposed. • The common structure of FEM, MBD and DEM inspired a proposal for a combined implementation. • Multibody systems with beams, shells, and rigid/flexible solid bodies are solved. • Contact between bodies is addressed including an automatic contact search engine. • The software code is expandable and encapsulated for further improvements.
