Pendulums with a few links are found in many technical applications like robot arm assemblies and torsional vibration absorbers. Such pendulum devices are characterized by instationary motions ranging from the equilibrium position under gravity forces via irregular chaotic motions to steady-state rotations under centrifugal forces. The method of multibody systems is well qualified for the analysis of such motions as well as for the estimation of corresponding stresses. An optimization of the shape will result in a more homogeneous stress distribution and lower weight. A method for the shape optimization of instationary moving pendulum links is proposed and some results will be shown in detail.
