A comprehensive survey of the literature of the most relevant analytical, numerical, and
experimental approaches for the kinematic and dynamic analyses of multibody mechanical …

Proper modelling of contact/impact phenomenon is critical to ensure reliable description of
the overall dynamic behaviors of mechanical systems. The past few decades witnessed …

The main objective of this work is to present a computational and experimental study on the
contact forces developed in revolute clearance joints. For this purpose, a well-known slider …

Compliant mechanism has got at least one flexible member between conventional rigid
links. It is a good choice for decreasing the number of movable joints and also their …

The nonlinear dynamics of a flexible multibody system with interval clearance size in a
revolute joint is investigated in this work. The system is modeled by using a unified mesh of …

In this study, effects of spherical clearance joint and flexible joint connection on the
mechanism vibration are presented. A spatial mechanism model is selected for the …

A comprehensive study of the effect of joint stiffness on the vibration behavior of a typical
slider-crank mechanism with a flexible component and joint clearances is presented in this …

This study investigates the dynamics of a partly compliant mechanism with joint clearance. A
spatial slider–crank mechanism is used as a numerical example. The kinematic and …

Accuracy is one of the key features that improves the quality of robotic manipulators for many
industrial and medical applications. Even with an accurate design and manufacturing …

The main purpose of this work is to present a comprehensive methodology to study the
dynamic responses of multibody dynamics with revolute clearance joint, which is based on …
