A Simplified Method for Deriving Equations of Motion For Continuous Systems with Flexible Members

A method is proposed for deriving dynamical equations for systems with both rigid and flexible components. During the derivation, each flexible component of the system is represented by a "surrogate element" which captures the response characteristics of that component and is easy to...
