description

The nodal equations of motion of the composite system are given in «total» and «relative» coordinates. In the framework of the component-mode synthesis method a coordinate transformation, here defined as an admissible one, is used to reduce the nodal equations of motion. This coordinate transformation is theoretically and numerically compared with the coordinate transformation usually used in the literature, which generally gives larger errors with respect to the former when a reduced number of nodes is considered
