Abstract

This chapter presents the adaptation of the contact model for its real-time application. The procedure of the adaptation, described below, includes the following steps: (1) integration of the contact model, which can be used for real-time simulation, in Simulink; (2) co-simulation of the multibody model of the test rig with the proposed contact model and control system (this step is required to generate input data needed for further verification of the real-time contact model); (3) real-time simulation with the dSpace hardware system.
