Multibody Dynamics and Object Oriented Programming are both leading technologies in their fields. This research combines them to produce a general purpose multibody dynamics code which is robust and easy to maintain. The simulator permits creation of mechanical systems from information specifying the properties and locations of parts, joints, springs, dampers, forces, gravity, etc. The mechanical components of the system are mirrored by software objects which interact to automatically assemble and integrate the equations of motion. This paper presents a multibody dynamics formulation suitable for object oriented programming, the principles of OOP and the procedures to create software objects with specific behaviors to represent parts, joints, forces springs, dampers etc. The aim is to demonstrate the use of OOP in serious engineering computing.

The incorporation of object-oriented techniques into the undergraduate curriculum has received significant attention over the past few years. In this article we will discuss the design, implementation, and application of an object-oriented digital logic simulator. The article explores the advantages
Described in this paper is a novel approach for the object-oriented computer modelling of vehicle dynamics. The key feature of the method is to represent the mechanical system as a collection of concatenated transmission elements carrying out component-related tasks autonomously and in a coordinate-
Monitoring manufacturing execution systems is complex and varies in nature. It is not realistic to imagine that a single solution or software package will address all the requirements of all manufacturing floors. Building generic software object class frameworks, customizable through subclassing, pr
## Abstract OOPSE is a new molecular dynamics simulation program that is capable of efficiently integrating equations of motion for atom types with orientational degrees of freedom (e.g. βstickyβ atoms and point dipoles). Transition metals can also be simulated using the embedded atom method (EAM)
