Ebook: Analysis of feeding device with two degrees of freedom

International Journal of Mechanics. Issue 4, Volume 5, 2011. 361-370 рр.The paper deals with kinematic and dynamic analysis of the feeding device mounted on the Czech 152 mm Self-propelled Howitzer mod. 77 (152 mm SPH M77). Kinematic analysis of the feeding device has been worked out using MATLAB software. The dynamic problem has been solved using Lagrange multiplier method applied for closed chain multi-body system. After that both kinematic and dynamic tasks has been simulated using of Rigid Dynamic component of software ANSYS with Finite Element Method (FEM).
