Many complex mechatronic systems consist of multiple interconnected dynamical subsystems, which are designed, developed, analyzed, and manufactured by multiple independent teams. To support such a design approach, a modular model framework is needed to reduce computational complexity and, at the same time, enable multiple teams to develop and analyze the subsystems in parallel. In such a modular framework, the subsystem models are typically interconnected by means of a static interconnection structure. However, many complex dynamical systems exhibit position-dependent behavior (e.g., induced by translating interfaces) which cannot be not captured by such static interconnection models. In this paper, a modular model framework is proposed, which allows to construct an interconnected system model, which captures the position-dependent behavior of systems with translating interfaces, such as linear guide rails, through a position-dependent interconnection structure. Additionally, this framework allows to apply model reduction on subsystem level, enabling a more effective reduction approach, tailored to the specific requirements of each subsystem. Furthermore, we show the effectiveness of this framework on an industrial wire bonder. Here, we show that including a position-dependent model of the interconnection structure 1) enables to accurately model the dynamics of a system over the operating range of the system and, 2) modular model reduction methods can be used to obtain a computationally efficient interconnected system model with guaranteed accuracy specifications. |
