Constraint Stabilization for Rigid Bodies: an Extension of Baumgarte’s Method

  • Conference paper
Dynamics of Multibody Systems

Abstract

A method of Baumgarte for the stabilization of mechanical constraints is extended to rotating bodies whose state is described by angular velocity variables and angle variables or Euler parameters. Computational results for several constraint situations are reported.
