Abstract
As the modern software tools produce large amount of
engineering data the demand for efficient data management
may be met by integrating database Technology with engineering
applications. This approach is taken in MECHAMOS,
which is a previously reported system for symbolic and
numeric multibody system (MBS) analysis. This work focuses
on the high level analysis performed with the available query
language in MECHAMOS. The data management is considerably
improved in this system compared to a traditional
MBS analysis tool. For instance MECHAMOS can easily
combine and compare MBS data not only within the same
MBS model but also over several MBS models each
governing different equations of motion. To avoid redundant
computations in such analyses a simplified materialisation
mechanism is implemented. Examples are given on combining
and comparing both symbolic and numeric MBS data
