modelForceStep

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 a force step at time startTime. Positive force accelerates in positive direction of flange translation.

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
BooleanuseSupport (from PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport2)false= true, if support flange enabled, otherwise implicitly grounded
SI.ForcestepForceHeight of force step (if negative, force is acting as load)
SI.ForceoffsetForceOffset of force
SI.TimestartTime0Force = offset for time < startTime

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)
