Abstract
This paper presents the main algorithms of POTAS-MSM (POwer Transmission Analysis Software for MultiSlipping Mechanism), which are based on the concept of subsystem assembly and the self-determination technique for the system degrees of freedom. This software allows users quickly and easily to model the various and complex configurations of power transmission systems and their components. With these dynamic models, the program can be used to evaluate system performances, transient phenomena such as shift, and other dynamic problems. The program has features for effective handling of non-linear models, rapid examination of the various changes in system behaviour caused by design modification, and provision of stable responses to an arbitrary operating condition or control logic. The ability of the developed program is demonstrated through simulations and experiments of a transmission model.
