As a new method developed in recent years, the discrete time transfer matrix method of multibody system is highly efficient for multibody system dynamics.

This method does not need the global dynamic equations of system and has the low order of system matrix, high computational efficiency. The proposed method has advantages for dynamic design of complex weapon systems, and can be carried over straightforwardly to other complex mechanical systems.展开更多
