Modeling 3D Mechanical Effects of 1D Powertrains

It is described how to extend one-dimensionally modelled rotational mechanical systems such that they can be mounted on three-dimensional multi-body system models without neglecting any dynamic effects. This is performed by adding support torques to existing drive train elements and by introducing new components that take care of the gyroscopic torques and the transformation of one-dimensional into threedimensional support torques. It is demonstrated that this approach is convenient for the user and leads to efficient simulation code.
