Preface
This book includes state-of-the-art contributions in the field of multibody dynamics, an area of computational mechanics aimed at studying the dynamic behaviour of mechanical systems composed of several rigid or flexible bodies that are connected to each other by joints and actuated by forces. Applications of multibody dynamics are related to many fields of contemporary engineering, such as vehicle and railway systems, aeronautical and space vehicles, robotic manipulators, mechatronic and autonomous systems, smart structures, biomechanical systems, and nanotechnologies. Each book chapter contains a revised and extended version of a paper that was presented at the ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on Multibody Dynamics 2015 held in the Barcelona School of Industrial Engineering, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, on 29 June–2 July 2015. The selected works reflect the state of the art in the application of multibody dynamics methodologies to different topics, namely, formulation
