Abstract
In this paper, we examine the modular development of two alternate methods for distributed computation of the forward dynamics simulations of constrained mechanical systems such as four-bar linkages. Both models of the fourbar were subdivided into two-part systems to be run in a distributed manner on separate processors, requiring only the exchange of state information at every time instant. RT-LAB was used to distribute the computation and produce a series of tests were performed to evaluate the performance of both methods of simulation.
