modelConstantForce

Constant force, not dependent on speed

Extends from Modelica.Mechanics.Translational.Interfaces.PartialForce (Partial model of a force acting at the flange (accelerates the flange)).

Information

Model of constant force, not dependent on velocity of flange.

Please note:
Positive force accelerates in positive direction of movement, but brakes in reverse direction of movement.
Negative force brakes in positive direction of movement, but accelerates in reverse direction of movement.

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
BooleanuseSupport (from PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport2)false= true, if support flange enabled, otherwise implicitly grounded
SI.Forcef_constantNominal force (if negative, force is acting as load in positive direction of motion)

Connectors

TypeNameDefaultDescription
Flange_bflange (from PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport2)Flange of component
Supportsupport (from PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport2)Support/housing of component

Components

TypeNameDefaultDescription
SI.Lengths (from PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport2)Distance between flange and support (= flange.s - support.s)
SI.Forcef (from PartialForce)Accelerating force acting at flange (= flange.f)
