Scientific Computing in Electronic Industry ECMI Special Interest Group on Multibody Dynamics Objectives Multibody dynamics comprises industrial design of road and railway vehicles, robots, air- and spacecrafts.
Further applications are biomechanics and dynamics of machinery.
In these fields, numerical simulation has become a key technology. Various challenging mathematical problems arise from the multibody system approach, and an improved collaboration between industry, research labs, and universities is expected to bring invaluable benefits. Each individual member is obliged to provide a brief profile stating his particular interests and the main focus of his work.
