This invention relates to the field of multibody system dynamics, specifically a dynamic modeling method for simulating the flight motion of a morphing aircraft with an arbitrary number of rotating components. The method first abstracts the morphing aircraft as a tree-like multibody system containing virtual rigid bodies and virtual hinges. Rigid bodies and hinges are uniformly numbered using a depth-first traversal search, with the relative rotation angles between rigid bodies used as generalized coordinates. Then, a path matrix is ​​used to describe the system topology, and the center-of-mass velocity, center-of-mass acceleration, angular velocity, and angular acceleration of each rigid body are derived using the generalized coordinates. Next, based on the above kinematic parameters, the deflection velocity, deflection angular velocity, generalized active force, and generalized inertial force are calculated and substituted into the Kane equations to establish the multibody system dynamic equations. Finally, the dynamic equations are solved, and the motion state is updated according to a set time step, repeating the process until the simulation of the set duration is completed. This invention has strong versatility and good scalability, and is applicable to the flight motion simulation of morphing aircraft with an arbitrary number of rotating components.
