Abstract
A new version of the transfer matrix method for multibody system, where the translational and angular accelerations as well as the internal forces and torques are taken as new state variables, is used to study the dynamics of plate with large motion and small deformation. Modal synthesis method is used to describe the deformation of the plate. The transfer matrix of plate with large motion and small deformation is derived. A continuously accelerating rotating plate subjected to constant torque and a rigid-flexible coupling pendulum containing a plate with large motion and small deformation are studied respectively, their overall transfer equations are established. Dynamic simulation of two examples is carried out and the result is compared with other methods.
