    Symbolic multibody methods for real-time simulation of railway vehicles
    (Springer, 2018) Ros Ganuza, Javier; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier; Pintor Borobia, Jesús María; Ingeniería Mecánica, Energética y de Materiales; Mekanika, Energetika eta Materialen Ingeniaritza
    In this work, recently developed state-of-the-art symbolic multibody methods are tested to accurately model a complex railway vehicle. The model is generated using a symbolic implementation of the principle of virtual power. Creep forces are modeled using a direct symbolic implementation of the standard linear Kalker model. No simplifications, such as base parameter reduction, partial-linearization or lookup tables for contact kinematics, are used. An Implicit–Explicit integration scheme is proposed to efficiently deal with the stiff creep dynamics. Real-time performance is achieved: the CPU time required for a very robust 1 ms integration time step is 203 µs.

    Determination of the symbolic base inertial parameters of planar mechanisms
    (Elsevier, 2017) Iriarte Goñi, Xabier; Ros Ganuza, Javier; Mata, Vicente; Aginaga García, Jokin; Ingeniería Mecánica, Energética y de Materiales; Mekanika, Energetika eta Materialen Ingeniaritza
    The inertial information of a planar mechanical system is characterised using 4 inertial parameters per solid. Due to the kinematic constraints, this parametrisation turns out be redundant. In order to reduce the computational cost of the model and make it possible to estimate its inertial parameters, the model is usually written in terms of a minimum set of inertial parameters called base inertial parameters. These parameters completely determine the dynamics of motion (kinetics) of a mechanism and, since their contributions are independent to each other, their actual values can be estimated experimentally. The base inertial parameters expressions can be written as a linear combination of the inertial parameters and determining their symbolic expressions provides a deeper insight into their physical meaning. This paper presents a new algorithm to determine the symbolic expressions of the base inertial parameters of planar mechanisms. The approach is based on a very well known numerical method to obtain the base inertial parameters and on the fact that these parameters belong to a class of functions that lets us search for symbolic expressions matching with them. Since the symbolic expressions are a function of the geometric constants of the system, the presented algorithm constitutes a very valuable tool in design optimisation and it is also very interesting in dynamic parameter estimation, model reduction and other fields.

    Inertia transfer concept based general method for the determination of the base inertial parameters
    (Springer, 2015) Ros Ganuza, Javier; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier; Aginaga García, Jokin; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC
    This paper presents a new algorithm to obtain the symbolic expressions of any of the possible base inertial parameter sets of a multibody system. Based on the ¿inertia transfer concept¿, a procedure is proposed to write a system of equations from which the base parameters are obtained. This leads to an automatizable and general method to obtain these parameters symbolically. The method can also be used to determine base inertial parameters numerically, and it can be even more straightforward to implement and use than the standard numerical methods. An example is presented to illustrate in detail the application of the algorithm, and to compare its results with those of a standard numerical procedure. The symbolic base inertial parameters can be of interest in symbolic simplification of the dynamic equations for real-time applications, design optimization, dynamic parameter identification, model reduction, and in other fields.
