Abstract
A novel time-discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method is introduced for the time integration of the differential-algebraic equations governing the dynamic response of flexible multibody systems. In contrast to traditional Galerkin methods, the rigid-body motion field is interpolated using the dual spherical linear scheme. Furthermore, the jumps inherent to time-DG methods are expressed in terms of a parameterization of the relative motion from one time-step to the next. The proposed scheme is third-order accurate for initial value problems of both rigid and flexible multibody dynamics.
