The simulation of multibody dynamics in real-time is becoming more and more relevant, since it is required by the growing and technologically advanced hardware- and human-in-the-loop applications. Both the efficient calculation of multibody dynamics and the adequate consideration of mechanical phenomena, like flexibility or contact, are essential for such applications. Accordingly, this contribution presents the following contents: a) two variants of a real-time formalism, capable of performing very fast calculations of the dynamics of complex multibody systems; b) the experimental validation of the formalism in the case of a prototype car; c) the use of the formalism for the design of vehicle controllers through a human-in-the-loop application. As conclusion, the work provides a reliable tool for the real-time simulation of multibody dynamics, which can be used to develop practical industrial applications.
