The Art of Modeling Mechanical Systems

The papers in this volume present rules for mechanical models in a general systematic way, always in combination with small and large examples, many from industry, illustrating the most important features of modeling. The best way to reach a good solution is discussed. The papers address researchers and engineers from academia and from industry, doctoral students and postdocs, working in the fields of mechanical, civil and electrical engineering as well as in fields like applied physics or applied mathematics.

List of contents

Modeling objectives and realization. - Fascination of making models. - Flexible multibody system dynamics. - The art of modeling in contact mechanics. - Modeling for nonlinear behavior in dynamic systems. - The art of modeling in computational mechanics.
