The governing equations of motion are formulated for an arbitrary flexible body in large overall motion based on Kane's equations . The linearization is performed peroperly by means of geometrically nonlinear straindisplacement relations and the nonlinear expression of angular velocity so that the 'dynamical stiffness' terms can be captured naturally in a general tcase.
