In the article, a model for predicting the energy losses caused by the flexural vibrations of
rubber tracks, rubber belts, and rubber-bushed metal link-tracks for off-road vehicles is …

This paper deals with the dynamic simulation of rigid multibody systems described with the
use of two-dimensional natural absolute coordinates. The computational methodology …

Railway vehicle dynamics involves modelling, simulating, and analysing the motion and
interaction of rail vehicles under external force, exhibiting numerous nonlinear behaviours …

This paper presents a novel technique that allows for both computationally fast and
sufficiently plausible simulation of vehicles with non-deformable tracks. The method is based …

Track tension has a significant impact on the dynamic performance of a track. Maintaining
the stability of track tension is conducive to improving the service life of track, meanwhile …

In spite of an increasing number of rubber-tracked vehicles, there are no engineering
models for predicting and optimizing the energy consumption of vehicles of this type. To …

In this paper, a mathematical model of the spatial mechanism with a serial closed-loop
structure composed of spherical, revolute and prismatic joints taking into account links' …

A new high-voltage electricity wire model is proposed to simulate the dynamic behavior of
the wire after tension failure and the nonlinear sliding joints between the wire and the iron …
