Model Order Reduction of Large-Scale Finite Element Systems in an MPI Parallelized Environment for Usage in Multibody Simulation

Volzer, Thomas; Eberhard, Peter

2016 Archive of Mechanical Engineering

doi:10.1515/meceng-2016-0027

Abstract The use of elastic bodies within a multibody simulation became more and more important within the last years. To include the elastic bodies, described as a finite element model in multibody simulations, the dimension of the system of ordinary differential equations must be reduced by...
