Efficient rigid-body dynamics algorithms are instrumental in enabling high-frequency dynamics evaluation for resource-intensive applications (e.g., model predictive control, large-scale simulation, reinforcement learning), potentially on resource-constrained hardware. Existing recursive algorithms with low computational complexity are mostly restricted to kinematic trees with external contact constraints or are sensitive to singular cases (e.g., linearly dependent constraints and kinematic singularities), severely impacting their practical usage in existing simulators. This article introduces two original low-complexity recursive algorithms, loop-constrained articulated body algorithm (LCABA) and proxBBO, based on proximal dynamics formulation for forward simulation of mechanisms with loops. These algorithms are derived from first principles using non-serial dynamic programming, depict linear complexity in practical scenarios, and are numerically robust to singular cases. They extend the existing constrained articulated body algorithm (constrainedABA) to handle internal loops and the pioneering BBO algorithm from the 1980s to singular cases. Both algorithms have been implemented by leveraging the open-source Pinocchio library, benchmarked in detail, and depict state-of-the-art performance for various robot topologies, including over 6x speed-ups compared to existing non-recursive algorithms for high degree-of-freedom systems with internal loops such as recent humanoid robots.
