Hey! Welcome to the world of
Bond Graph Modeling
Bond Graph is a powerful modeling tool for multi-body system analysis and control development. The purpose of this website is to document some of my interesting engineering projects using such a technique and share them with other Bond Graph enthusiasts.
Something more about Bond Graph
The Bond Graph is first invented by Henry Paynter at MIT and later organized into a textbook, "System Dynamics: Modeling, Simulation, and Control of Mechatronic Systems", by his students, Dr. Karnopp, Dr. Margolis, and Dr. Rosenberg.
Bond Graphs is capable of mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and even thermal systems modeling. The figure above shows the model of a quarter car with active suspension. Eventually, Bond Graphs act like LEGO, which integrated subsystems together for further Multi-Body Simulation.
