MBDyn features the integrated multidisciplinary analysis of multibody,
multiphysics systems, including nonlinear mechanics of rigid and flexible
constrained bodies, smart materials,
electric networks, active control, hydraulic networks,
essential fixed-wing and rotorcraft aerodynamics.
What is a multibody system? Find out here (but come back!)
MBDyn allows to simulate the behavior of heterogeneous mechanical,
aeroservoelastic systems based on first principles equations.
MBDyn can be easily coupled to external solvers for co-simulation
of multiphysics problems, e.g. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD),
using a C, C++ or Python peer-side API.
MBDyn is being actively developed and used in the aerospace,
wind energy, automotive and mechatronic fields for the analysis
and simulation of the dynamics of complex systems.
The extension of available analysis domains to new models
and of new analysis domains is planned, and problem-driven:
if you need to solve a specific problem,
let us know.
Dynamic linking of user-defined modules
is heavily exploited to let users extend the feature library
(elements, drives, constitutive laws, and more).
On GNU/Linux, real-time execution is supported under
RTAI,
the Real-Time Application Interface, and POSIX tight scheduling.
