Introduction
This guide describes the Multibody Dynamics Module, an optional add-on package for the COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation software designed to perform static or dynamic analysis for systems of flexible and rigid components connected through a set of joints, springs, dampers, gears, chains, and cams.
This chapter introduces you to the capabilities of this module. A summary of the physics interfaces and where you can find documentation and model examples is also included. The last section is a brief overview with links to the chapters in this guide.
