Abstract: The dynamic study of current and rapid movements of rigid and multibody mechanical systems, according to differential principles from dynamics, is based on advanced concepts from analytical mechanics: kinetic energy, higher-order acceleration energies, and their absolute time derivatives. In advanced dynamics, the study will extend to higher-order acceleration energies. This paper, reflecting the authors’ research, presents new and revised formulations in advanced kinematics and dynamics, with a focus on acceleration energies of the higher order. Explicit and matrix representations of the defining expressions for higher-order acceleration energies, relevant to the current and rapid movements of rigid bodies and multibody mechanical systems, are presented. These formulations include higher-order absolute time derivatives of advanced concepts, following the specific equations from analytical dynamics. Based on the authors’ findings, acceleration energies play a central, decisive role in formulating higher-order differential equations, which describe both rapid and transient motion behavior in rigid and multibody systems.
