connectorSupport

Support/housing flange of a one-dimensional translational component

Extends from Flange (One-dimensional translational flange).

Information

This is a connector for 1-dim. translational mechanical systems and models the support or housing of a shaft. The following variables are defined in this connector:

s: Absolute position of the support/housing in [m].
f: Reaction force in the support/housing in [N].

The support connector is usually defined as conditional connector. It is most convenient to utilize it
