High-Efficiency Dynamic Modeling of a Helical Spring Element Based on the Geometrically Exact Beam Theory

This paper presents a modeling study of the dynamics of a helical spring element with variable pitch and radius considering both the static stiffness and dynamic response by using the geometrically exact beam theory. The geometrically exact beam theory based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam hypothesis is...
