Let $x(t)$ be the exact solution of the ODE system, |

In particular, |

\varphi _\tau \circ \varphi _{ - \tau } = I |

Therefore, the exact flow is self-adjoint, |

\varphi _\tau = \varphi _{ - \tau }^{ - 1}. |

The hidden geometric properties of ODE and its flow play important |

roles in numerical studies. Let $\varphi$ be the flow of Hamiltonian |

\] |
| 644 |
|
The vector filed $f$ has reversing symmetry $h$ if $f = - \tilde f$. |
| 645 |
|
In other words, the flow of this vector field is reversible if and |
| 646 |

only if $ h \circ \varphi ^{ - 1} = \varphi \circ h $. When |

A \emph{first integral}, or conserved quantity of a general |
| 649 |

differential function is a function $ G:R^{2d} \to R^d $ which is |
| 650 |

constant for all solutions of the ODE $\frac{{dx}}{{dt}} = f(x)$ , |
| 651 |

\[ |
| 652 |
+ |
\frac{{dG(x(t))}}{{dt}} = 0. |
| 653 |

\] |
| 654 |

Using chain rule, one may obtain, |
| 655 |
+ |
\[ |
| 656 |

\sum\limits_i {\frac{{dG}}{{dx_i }}} f_i (x) = f \bullet \nabla G, |
| 657 |

\] |
| 658 |

which is the condition for conserving \emph{first integral}. For a |
| 659 |

canonical Hamiltonian system, the time evolution of an arbitrary |
| 660 |

smooth function $G$ is given by, |
| 661 |

\begin{equation} |

\begin{array}{c} |
| 663 |

\frac{{dG(x(t))}}{{dt}} = [\nabla _x G(x(t))]^T \dot x(t) \\ |

\label{introEquation:firstIntegral1} |

Using poisson bracket notion, Equation |

\ref{introEquation:firstIntegral1} can be rewritten as |
| 670 |

\[ |
| 671 |
+ |
\frac{d}{{dt}}G(x(t)) = \left\{ {G,H} \right\}(x(t)). |
| 672 |
+ |
\] |
| 673 |
+ |
Therefore, the sufficient condition for $G$ to be the \emph{first |
| 674 |

integral} of a Hamiltonian system is |
| 675 |
+ |
\[ |
| 676 |
+ |
\left\{ {G,H} \right\} = 0. |
| 677 |
+ |
\] |
| 678 |
+ |
As well known, the Hamiltonian (or energy) H of a Hamiltonian system |
| 679 |
+ |
is a \emph{first integral}, which is due to the fact $\{ H,H\} = |
| 680 |
+ |
0$. |
| 681 |
+ |
|
| 682 |
+ |
|
| 683 |

When designing any numerical methods, one should always try to |

\label{introEquation:Lp10b} |
| 785 |
+ |
\end{align} |
| 786 |
+ |
where $F(t)$ is the force at time $t$. This integration scheme is |
| 787 |
+ |
known as \emph{velocity verlet} which is |
| 788 |
+ |
symplectic(\ref{introEquation:SymplecticFlowComposition}), |
| 789 |
+ |
time-reversible(\ref{introEquation:timeReversible}) and |
| 790 |
+ |
volume-preserving (\ref{introEquation:volumePreserving}). These |
| 791 |
+ |
geometric properties attribute to its long-time stability and its |
| 792 |
+ |
popularity in the community. However, the most commonly used |
| 793 |
+ |
velocity verlet integration scheme is written as below, |
| 794 |
+ |
\begin{align} |
| 795 |
+ |
\dot{q}\biggl (\frac{\Delta t}{2}\biggr ) &= |
| 796 |
+ |
\dot{q}(0) + \frac{\Delta t}{2m}\, F[q(0)], \label{introEquation:Lp9a}\\% |
| 797 |
+ |
% |
| 798 |
+ |
q(\Delta t) &= q(0) + \Delta t\, \dot{q}\biggl (\frac{\Delta t}{2}\biggr ),% |
| 799 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:Lp9b}\\% |
| 800 |
+ |
% |
| 801 |
+ |
\dot{q}(\Delta t) &= \dot{q}\biggl (\frac{\Delta t}{2}\biggr ) + |
| 802 |
+ |
\frac{\Delta t}{2m}\, F[q(0)]. \label{introEquation:Lp9c} |
| 803 |
+ |
\end{align} |
| 804 |
+ |
From the preceding splitting, one can see that the integration of |
| 805 |
+ |
the equations of motion would follow: |
| 806 |
+ |
\begin{enumerate} |
| 807 |
+ |
\item calculate the velocities at the half step, $\frac{\Delta t}{2}$, from the forces calculated at the initial position. |
| 808 |
+ |
|
| 809 |
+ |
\item Use the half step velocities to move positions one whole step, $\Delta t$. |
| 810 |
+ |
|
| 811 |
+ |
\item Evaluate the forces at the new positions, $\mathbf{r}(\Delta t)$, and use the new forces to complete the velocity move. |
| 812 |
+ |
|
| 813 |
+ |
\item Repeat from step 1 with the new position, velocities, and forces assuming the roles of the initial values. |
| 814 |
+ |
\end{enumerate} |
| 815 |
+ |
|
| 816 |
+ |
Simply switching the order of splitting and composing, a new |
| 817 |
+ |
integrator, the \emph{position verlet} integrator, can be generated, |
| 818 |
+ |
\begin{align} |
| 819 |
+ |
\dot q(\Delta t) &= \dot q(0) + \Delta tF(q(0))\left[ {q(0) + |
| 820 |
+ |
\frac{{\Delta t}}{{2m}}\dot q(0)} \right], % |
| 821 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:positionVerlet1} \\% |
| 822 |
+ |
% |
| 823 |
+ |
q(\Delta t) &= q(0) + \frac{{\Delta t}}{2}\left[ {\dot q(0) + \dot |
| 824 |
+ |
q(\Delta t)} \right]. % |
| 825 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:positionVerlet1} |
| 826 |
+ |
\end{align} |
| 827 |

|
| 828 |
+ |
\subsubsection{\label{introSection:errorAnalysis}Error Analysis and Higher Order Methods} |
| 829 |
+ |
|
| 830 |
+ |
Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula can be used to determine the local |
| 831 |
+ |
error of splitting method in terms of commutator of the |
| 832 |
+ |
operators(\ref{introEquation:exponentialOperator}) associated with |
| 833 |
+ |
the sub-flow. For operators $hX$ and $hY$ which are associate to |
| 834 |
+ |
$\varphi_1(t)$ and $\varphi_2(t$ respectively , we have |
| 835 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 836 |
+ |
\exp (hX + hY) = \exp (hZ) |
| 837 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 838 |
+ |
where |
| 839 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 840 |
+ |
hZ = hX + hY + \frac{{h^2 }}{2}[X,Y] + \frac{{h^3 }}{2}\left( |
| 841 |
+ |
{[X,[X,Y]] + [Y,[Y,X]]} \right) + \ldots . |
| 842 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 843 |
+ |
Here, $[X,Y]$ is the commutators of operator $X$ and $Y$ given by |
| 844 |
+ |
\[ |
| 845 |
+ |
[X,Y] = XY - YX . |
| 846 |
+ |
\] |
| 847 |
+ |
Applying Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula to Sprang splitting, we |
| 848 |
+ |
can obtain |
| 849 |
+ |
\begin{eqnarray*} |
| 850 |
+ |
\exp (h X/2)\exp (h Y)\exp (h X/2) & = & \exp (h X + h Y + h^2 |
| 851 |
+ |
[X,Y]/4 + h^2 [Y,X]/4 \\ & & \mbox{} + h^2 [X,X]/8 + h^2 [Y,Y]/8 \\ |
| 852 |
+ |
& & \mbox{} + h^3 [Y,[Y,X]]/12 - h^3 [X,[X,Y]]/24 & & \mbox{} + |
| 853 |
+ |
\ldots ) |
| 854 |
+ |
\end{eqnarray*} |
| 855 |
+ |
Since \[ [X,Y] + [Y,X] = 0\] and \[ [X,X] = 0\], the dominant local |
| 856 |
+ |
error of Spring splitting is proportional to $h^3$. The same |
| 857 |
+ |
procedure can be applied to general splitting, of the form |
| 858 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 859 |
+ |
\varphi _{b_m h}^2 \circ \varphi _{a_m h}^1 \circ \varphi _{b_{m - |
| 860 |
+ |
1} h}^2 \circ \ldots \circ \varphi _{a_1 h}^1 . |
| 861 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 862 |
+ |
Careful choice of coefficient $a_1 ,\ldot , b_m$ will lead to higher |
| 863 |
+ |
order method. Yoshida proposed an elegant way to compose higher |
| 864 |
+ |
order methods based on symmetric splitting. Given a symmetric second |
| 865 |
+ |
order base method $ \varphi _h^{(2)} $, a fourth-order symmetric |
| 866 |
+ |
method can be constructed by composing, |
| 867 |
+ |
\[ |
| 868 |
+ |
\varphi _h^{(4)} = \varphi _{\alpha h}^{(2)} \circ \varphi _{\beta |
| 869 |
+ |
h}^{(2)} \circ \varphi _{\alpha h}^{(2)} |
| 870 |
+ |
\] |
| 871 |
+ |
where $ \alpha = - \frac{{2^{1/3} }}{{2 - 2^{1/3} }}$ and $ \beta |
| 872 |
+ |
= \frac{{2^{1/3} }}{{2 - 2^{1/3} }}$. Moreover, a symmetric |
| 873 |
+ |
integrator $ \varphi _h^{(2n + 2)}$ can be composed by |
| 874 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 875 |
+ |
\varphi _h^{(2n + 2)} = \varphi _{\alpha h}^{(2n)} \circ \varphi |
| 876 |
+ |
_{\beta h}^{(2n)} \circ \varphi _{\alpha h}^{(2n)} |
| 877 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 878 |
+ |
, if the weights are chosen as |
| 879 |
+ |
\[ |
| 880 |
+ |
\alpha = - \frac{{2^{1/(2n + 1)} }}{{2 - 2^{1/(2n + 1)} }},\beta = |
| 881 |
+ |
\frac{{2^{1/(2n + 1)} }}{{2 - 2^{1/(2n + 1)} }} . |

\subsection{\label{introSection:constrainedHamiltonianRB}Constrained Hamiltonian for Rigid Body} |
| 941 |
+ |
The motion of the rigid body is Hamiltonian with the Hamiltonian |
| 942 |
+ |
function |
| 943 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 944 |
+ |
H = \frac{1}{2}(p^T m^{ - 1} p) + \frac{1}{2}tr(PJ^{ - 1} P) + |
| 945 |
+ |
V(q,Q) + \frac{1}{2}tr[(QQ^T - 1)\Lambda ]. |
| 946 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:RBHamiltonian} |
| 947 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 948 |
+ |
Here, $q$ and $Q$ are the position and rotation matrix for the |
| 949 |
+ |
rigid-body, $p$ and $P$ are conjugate momenta to $q$ and $Q$ , and |
| 950 |
+ |
$J$, a diagonal matrix, is defined by |
| 951 |
+ |
\[ |
| 952 |
+ |
I_{ii}^{ - 1} = \frac{1}{2}\sum\limits_{i \ne j} {J_{jj}^{ - 1} } |
| 953 |
+ |
\] |
| 954 |
+ |
where $I_{ii}$ is the diagonal element of the inertia tensor. This |
| 955 |
+ |
constrained Hamiltonian equation subjects to a holonomic constraint, |
| 956 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 957 |
+ |
Q^T Q = 1$, \label{introEquation:orthogonalConstraint} |
| 958 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 959 |
+ |
which is used to ensure rotation matrix's orthogonality. |
| 960 |
+ |
Differentiating \ref{introEquation:orthogonalConstraint} and using |
| 961 |
+ |
Equation \ref{introEquation:RBMotionMomentum}, one may obtain, |
| 962 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 963 |
+ |
Q^T PJ^{ - 1} + J^{ - 1} P^T Q = 0 . \\ |
| 964 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:RBFirstOrderConstraint} |
| 965 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 966 |
+ |
|
| 967 |
+ |
Using Equation (\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianCoordinate}, |
| 968 |
+ |
\ref{introEquation:motionHamiltonianMomentum}), one can write down |
| 969 |
+ |
the equations of motion, |
| 970 |
+ |
\[ |
| 971 |
+ |
\begin{array}{c} |
| 972 |
+ |
\frac{{dq}}{{dt}} = \frac{p}{m} \label{introEquation:RBMotionPosition}\\ |
| 973 |
+ |
\frac{{dp}}{{dt}} = - \nabla _q V(q,Q) \label{introEquation:RBMotionMomentum}\\ |
| 974 |
+ |
\frac{{dQ}}{{dt}} = PJ^{ - 1} \label{introEquation:RBMotionRotation}\\ |
| 975 |
+ |
\frac{{dP}}{{dt}} = - \nabla _Q V(q,Q) - 2Q\Lambda . \label{introEquation:RBMotionP}\\ |
| 976 |
+ |
\end{array} |
| 977 |
+ |
\] |
| 978 |
+ |
|
| 979 |
+ |
In general, there are two ways to satisfy the holonomic constraints. |
| 980 |
+ |
We can use constraint force provided by lagrange multiplier on the |
| 981 |
+ |
normal manifold to keep the motion on constraint space. Or we can |
| 982 |
+ |
simply evolve the system in constraint manifold. The two method are |
| 983 |
+ |
proved to be equivalent. The holonomic constraint and equations of |
| 984 |
+ |
motions define a constraint manifold for rigid body |
| 985 |
+ |
\[ |
| 986 |
+ |
M = \left\{ {(Q,P):Q^T Q = 1,Q^T PJ^{ - 1} + J^{ - 1} P^T Q = 0} |
| 987 |
+ |
\right\}. |
| 988 |
+ |
\] |
| 989 |
+ |
|
| 990 |
+ |
Unfortunately, this constraint manifold is not the cotangent bundle |
| 991 |
+ |
$T_{\star}SO(3)$. However, it turns out that under symplectic |
| 992 |
+ |
transformation, the cotangent space and the phase space are |
| 993 |
+ |
diffeomorphic. Introducing |
| 994 |
+ |
\[ |
| 995 |
+ |
\tilde Q = Q,\tilde P = \frac{1}{2}\left( {P - QP^T Q} \right), |
| 996 |
+ |
\] |
| 997 |
+ |
the mechanical system subject to a holonomic constraint manifold $M$ |
| 998 |
+ |
can be re-formulated as a Hamiltonian system on the cotangent space |
| 999 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1000 |
+ |
T^* SO(3) = \left\{ {(\tilde Q,\tilde P):\tilde Q^T \tilde Q = |
| 1001 |
+ |
1,\tilde Q^T \tilde PJ^{ - 1} + J^{ - 1} P^T \tilde Q = 0} \right\} |
| 1002 |
+ |
\] |
| 1003 |
+ |
|
| 1004 |
+ |
For a body fixed vector $X_i$ with respect to the center of mass of |
| 1005 |
+ |
the rigid body, its corresponding lab fixed vector $X_0^{lab}$ is |
| 1006 |
+ |
given as |
| 1007 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1008 |
+ |
X_i^{lab} = Q X_i + q. |
| 1009 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1010 |
+ |
Therefore, potential energy $V(q,Q)$ is defined by |
| 1011 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1012 |
+ |
V(q,Q) = V(Q X_0 + q). |
| 1013 |
+ |
\] |
| 1014 |
+ |
Hence, the force and torque are given by |
| 1015 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1016 |
+ |
\nabla _q V(q,Q) = F(q,Q) = \sum\limits_i {F_i (q,Q)}, |
| 1017 |
+ |
\] |
| 1018 |
+ |
and |
| 1019 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1020 |
+ |
\nabla _Q V(q,Q) = F(q,Q)X_i^t |
| 1021 |
+ |
\] |
| 1022 |
+ |
respectively. |
| 1023 |
+ |
|
| 1024 |
+ |
As a common choice to describe the rotation dynamics of the rigid |
| 1025 |
+ |
body, angular momentum on body frame $\Pi = Q^t P$ is introduced to |
| 1026 |
+ |
rewrite the equations of motion, |
| 1027 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1028 |
+ |
\begin{array}{l} |
| 1029 |
+ |
\mathop \Pi \limits^ \bullet = J^{ - 1} \Pi ^T \Pi + Q^T \sum\limits_i {F_i (q,Q)X_i^T } - \Lambda \\ |
| 1030 |
+ |
\mathop Q\limits^{{\rm{ }} \bullet } = Q\Pi {\rm{ }}J^{ - 1} \\ |
| 1031 |
+ |
\end{array} |
| 1032 |
+ |
\label{introEqaution:RBMotionPI} |
| 1033 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1034 |
+ |
, as well as holonomic constraints, |
| 1035 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1036 |
+ |
\begin{array}{l} |
| 1037 |
+ |
\Pi J^{ - 1} + J^{ - 1} \Pi ^t = 0 \\ |
| 1038 |
+ |
Q^T Q = 1 \\ |
| 1039 |
+ |
\end{array} |
| 1040 |
+ |
\] |
| 1041 |
+ |
|
| 1042 |
+ |
For a vector $v(v_1 ,v_2 ,v_3 ) \in R^3$ and a matrix $\hat v \in |
| 1043 |
+ |
so(3)^ \star$, the hat-map isomorphism, |
| 1044 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1045 |
+ |
v(v_1 ,v_2 ,v_3 ) \Leftrightarrow \hat v = \left( |
| 1046 |
+ |
{\begin{array}{*{20}c} |
| 1047 |
+ |
0 & { - v_3 } & {v_2 } \\ |
| 1048 |
+ |
{v_3 } & 0 & { - v_1 } \\ |
| 1049 |
+ |
{ - v_2 } & {v_1 } & 0 \\ |
| 1050 |
+ |
\end{array}} \right), |
| 1051 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:hatmapIsomorphism} |
| 1052 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1053 |
+ |
will let us associate the matrix products with traditional vector |
| 1054 |
+ |
operations |
| 1055 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1056 |
+ |
\hat vu = v \times u |
| 1057 |
+ |
\] |
| 1058 |
+ |
|
| 1059 |
+ |
Using \ref{introEqaution:RBMotionPI}, one can construct a skew |
| 1060 |
+ |
matrix, |
| 1061 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1062 |
+ |
(\mathop \Pi \limits^ \bullet - \mathop \Pi \limits^ \bullet ^T |
| 1063 |
+ |
){\rm{ }} = {\rm{ }}(\Pi - \Pi ^T ){\rm{ }}(J^{ - 1} \Pi + \Pi J^{ |
| 1064 |
+ |
- 1} ) + \sum\limits_i {[Q^T F_i (r,Q)X_i^T - X_i F_i (r,Q)^T Q]} - |
| 1065 |
+ |
(\Lambda - \Lambda ^T ) . \label{introEquation:skewMatrixPI} |
| 1066 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1067 |
+ |
Since $\Lambda$ is symmetric, the last term of Equation |
| 1068 |
+ |
\ref{introEquation:skewMatrixPI} is zero, which implies the Lagrange |
| 1069 |
+ |
multiplier $\Lambda$ is absent from the equations of motion. This |
| 1070 |
+ |
unique property eliminate the requirement of iterations which can |
| 1071 |
+ |
not be avoided in other methods\cite{}. |
| 1072 |
+ |
|
| 1073 |
+ |
Applying hat-map isomorphism, we obtain the equation of motion for |
| 1074 |
+ |
angular momentum on body frame |
| 1075 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1076 |
+ |
\dot \pi = \pi \times I^{ - 1} \pi + \sum\limits_i {\left( {Q^T |
| 1077 |
+ |
F_i (r,Q)} \right) \times X_i }. |
| 1078 |

\label{introEquation:bodyAngularMotion} |
| 1079 |

\end{equation} |
| 1080 |

In the same manner, the equation of motion for rotation matrix is |
| 1081 |
+ |
given by |
| 1082 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1083 |
+ |
\dot Q = Qskew(I^{ - 1} \pi ) |

\subsection{\label{introSection:SymplecticFreeRB}Symplectic |
| 1087 |
+ |
Lie-Poisson Integrator for Free Rigid Body} |
| 1088 |
+ |
|
| 1089 |
+ |
If there is not external forces exerted on the rigid body, the only |
| 1090 |
+ |
contribution to the rotational is from the kinetic potential (the |
| 1091 |
+ |
first term of \ref{ introEquation:bodyAngularMotion}). The free |
| 1092 |
+ |
rigid body is an example of Lie-Poisson system with Hamiltonian |
| 1093 |
+ |
function |
| 1094 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1095 |
+ |
T^r (\pi ) = T_1 ^r (\pi _1 ) + T_2^r (\pi _2 ) + T_3^r (\pi _3 ) |
| 1096 |
+ |
\label{introEquation:rotationalKineticRB} |
| 1097 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1098 |
+ |
where $T_i^r (\pi _i ) = \frac{{\pi _i ^2 }}{{2I_i }}$ and |
| 1099 |
+ |
Lie-Poisson structure matrix, |
| 1100 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1101 |
+ |
J(\pi ) = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} |
| 1102 |
+ |
0 & {\pi _3 } & { - \pi _2 } \\ |
| 1103 |
+ |
{ - \pi _3 } & 0 & {\pi _1 } \\ |
| 1104 |
+ |
{\pi _2 } & { - \pi _1 } & 0 \\ |
| 1105 |
+ |
\end{array}} \right) |
| 1106 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1107 |
+ |
Thus, the dynamics of free rigid body is governed by |
| 1108 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1109 |
+ |
\frac{d}{{dt}}\pi = J(\pi )\nabla _\pi T^r (\pi ) |
| 1110 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1111 |
+ |
|
| 1112 |
+ |
One may notice that each $T_i^r$ in Equation |
| 1113 |
+ |
\ref{introEquation:rotationalKineticRB} can be solved exactly. For |
| 1114 |
+ |
instance, the equations of motion due to $T_1^r$ are given by |
| 1115 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1116 |
+ |
\frac{d}{{dt}}\pi = R_1 \pi ,\frac{d}{{dt}}Q = QR_1 |
| 1117 |
+ |
\label{introEqaution:RBMotionSingleTerm} |
| 1118 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1119 |
+ |
where |
| 1120 |
+ |
\[ R_1 = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} |
| 1121 |
+ |
0 & 0 & 0 \\ |
| 1122 |
+ |
0 & 0 & {\pi _1 } \\ |
| 1123 |
+ |
0 & { - \pi _1 } & 0 \\ |
| 1124 |
+ |
\end{array}} \right). |
| 1125 |
+ |
\] |
| 1126 |
+ |
The solutions of Equation \ref{introEqaution:RBMotionSingleTerm} is |
| 1127 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1128 |
+ |
\pi (\Delta t) = e^{\Delta tR_1 } \pi (0),Q(\Delta t) = |
| 1129 |
+ |
Q(0)e^{\Delta tR_1 } |
| 1130 |
+ |
\] |
| 1131 |
+ |
with |
| 1132 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1133 |
+ |
e^{\Delta tR_1 } = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} |
| 1134 |
+ |
0 & 0 & 0 \\ |
| 1135 |
+ |
0 & {\cos \theta _1 } & {\sin \theta _1 } \\ |
| 1136 |
+ |
0 & { - \sin \theta _1 } & {\cos \theta _1 } \\ |
| 1137 |
+ |
\end{array}} \right),\theta _1 = \frac{{\pi _1 }}{{I_1 }}\Delta t. |
| 1138 |
+ |
\] |
| 1139 |
+ |
To reduce the cost of computing expensive functions in e^{\Delta |
| 1140 |
+ |
tR_1 }, we can use Cayley transformation, |
| 1141 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1142 |
+ |
e^{\Delta tR_1 } \approx (1 - \Delta tR_1 )^{ - 1} (1 + \Delta tR_1 |
| 1143 |
+ |
) |
| 1144 |
+ |
\] |
| 1145 |
+ |
|
| 1146 |
+ |
The flow maps for $T_2^r$ and $T_2^r$ can be found in the same |
| 1147 |
+ |
manner. |
| 1148 |
+ |
|
| 1149 |
+ |
In order to construct a second-order symplectic method, we split the |
| 1150 |
+ |
angular kinetic Hamiltonian function can into five terms |
| 1151 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1152 |
+ |
T^r (\pi ) = \frac{1}{2}T_1 ^r (\pi _1 ) + \frac{1}{2}T_2^r (\pi _2 |
| 1153 |
+ |
) + T_3^r (\pi _3 ) + \frac{1}{2}T_2^r (\pi _2 ) + \frac{1}{2}T_1 ^r |
| 1154 |
+ |
(\pi _1 ) |
| 1155 |
+ |
\]. |
| 1156 |
+ |
Concatenating flows corresponding to these five terms, we can obtain |
| 1157 |
+ |
an symplectic integrator, |
| 1158 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1159 |
+ |
\varphi _{\Delta t,T^r } = \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi _1 } \circ |
| 1160 |
+ |
\varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi _2 } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t,\pi _3 } |
| 1161 |
+ |
\circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi _2 } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi |
| 1162 |
+ |
_1 }. |
| 1163 |
+ |
\] |
| 1164 |
+ |
|
| 1165 |
+ |
The non-canonical Lie-Poisson bracket ${F, G}$ of two function |
| 1166 |
+ |
$F(\pi )$ and $G(\pi )$ is defined by |
| 1167 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1168 |
+ |
\{ F,G\} (\pi ) = [\nabla _\pi F(\pi )]^T J(\pi )\nabla _\pi G(\pi |
| 1169 |
+ |
) |
| 1170 |
+ |
\] |
| 1171 |
+ |
If the Poisson bracket of a function $F$ with an arbitrary smooth |
| 1172 |
+ |
function $G$ is zero, $F$ is a \emph{Casimir}, which is the |
| 1173 |
+ |
conserved quantity in Poisson system. We can easily verify that the |
| 1174 |
+ |
norm of the angular momentum, $\parallel \pi |
| 1175 |
+ |
\parallel$, is a \emph{Casimir}. Let$ F(\pi ) = S(\frac{{\parallel |
| 1176 |
+ |
\pi \parallel ^2 }}{2})$ for an arbitrary function $ S:R \to R$ , |
| 1177 |
+ |
then by the chain rule |
| 1178 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1179 |
+ |
\nabla _\pi F(\pi ) = S'(\frac{{\parallel \pi \parallel ^2 |
| 1180 |
+ |
}}{2})\pi |
| 1181 |
+ |
\] |
| 1182 |
+ |
Thus $ [\nabla _\pi F(\pi )]^T J(\pi ) = - S'(\frac{{\parallel \pi |
| 1183 |
+ |
\parallel ^2 }}{2})\pi \times \pi = 0 $. This explicit |
| 1184 |
+ |
Lie-Poisson integrator is found to be extremely efficient and stable |
| 1185 |
+ |
which can be explained by the fact the small angle approximation is |
| 1186 |
+ |
used and the norm of the angular momentum is conserved. |
| 1187 |
+ |

Splitting for Rigid Body} |
| 1190 |
+ |
|
| 1191 |
+ |
The Hamiltonian of rigid body can be separated in terms of kinetic |
| 1192 |
+ |
energy and potential energy, |
| 1193 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1194 |
+ |
H = T(p,\pi ) + V(q,Q) |
| 1195 |
+ |
\] |
| 1196 |
+ |
The equations of motion corresponding to potential energy and |
| 1197 |

kinetic energy are listed in the below table, |
| 1198 |

| 1205 |
+ |
$\frac{d}{{dt}}Q = 0$ & $ \frac{d}{{dt}}Q = Qskew(I^{ - 1} j)$ \\ |
| 1206 |
+ |
$ \frac{d}{{dt}}\pi = \sum\limits_i {\left( {Q^T F_i (r,Q)} \right) \times X_i }$ & $\frac{d}{{dt}}\pi = \pi \times I^{ - 1} \pi$\\ |

\end{center} |
| 1210 |
+ |
A second-order symplectic method is now obtained by the composition |
| 1211 |
+ |
of the flow maps, |
| 1212 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1213 |
+ |
\varphi _{\Delta t} = \varphi _{\Delta t/2,V} \circ \varphi |
| 1214 |
+ |
_{\Delta t,T} \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,V}. |
| 1215 |
+ |
\] |
| 1216 |
+ |
Moreover, \varphi _{\Delta t/2,V} can be divided into two sub-flows |
| 1217 |
+ |
which corresponding to force and torque respectively, |
| 1218 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1219 |
+ |
\varphi _{\Delta t/2,V} = \varphi _{\Delta t/2,F} \circ \varphi |
| 1220 |
+ |
_{\Delta t/2,\tau }. |
| 1221 |
+ |
\] |
| 1222 |
+ |
Since the associated operators of $\varphi _{\Delta t/2,F} $ and |
| 1223 |
+ |
$\circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\tau }$ are commuted, the composition |
| 1224 |
+ |
order inside \varphi _{\Delta t/2,V} does not matter. |
| 1225 |
+ |
|
| 1226 |
+ |
Furthermore, kinetic potential can be separated to translational |
| 1227 |
+ |
kinetic term, $T^t (p)$, and rotational kinetic term, $T^r (\pi )$, |
| 1228 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1229 |
+ |
T(p,\pi ) =T^t (p) + T^r (\pi ). |
| 1230 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
| 1231 |
+ |
where $ T^t (p) = \frac{1}{2}p^T m^{ - 1} p $ and $T^r (\pi )$ is |
| 1232 |
+ |
defined by \ref{introEquation:rotationalKineticRB}. Therefore, the |
| 1233 |
+ |
corresponding flow maps are given by |
| 1234 |
+ |
\[ |
| 1235 |
+ |
\varphi _{\Delta t,T} = \varphi _{\Delta t,T^t } \circ \varphi |
| 1236 |
+ |
_{\Delta t,T^r }. |
| 1237 |
+ |
\] |
| 1238 |
+ |
Finally, we obtain the overall symplectic flow maps for free moving |
| 1239 |
+ |
rigid body |
| 1240 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
| 1241 |
+ |
\begin{array}{c} |

\varphi _{\Delta t} = \varphi _{\Delta t/2,F} \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\tau } \\ |

\circ \varphi _{\Delta t,T^t } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi _1 } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi _2 } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t,\pi _3 } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi _2 } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\pi _1 } \\ |
| 1244 |
+ |
\circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,\tau } \circ \varphi _{\Delta t/2,F} .\\ |
