modelSignForce

Constant force changing sign with 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 which changes sign with direction of movement.

Please note:
Positive force accelerates in both directions of movement.
Negative force brakes in both directions of movement.

Around zero speed regularization avoids numerical problems.

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
BooleanuseSupport (from PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport2)false= true, if support flange enabled, otherwise implicitly grounded
SI.Forcef_nominalNominal force (if negative, force is acting as load)
Modelica.Blocks.Types.RegularizationregModelica.Blocks.Types.Regularization.ExpType of regularization
SI.Velocityv0Regularization below v0

Connectors

TypeNameDefaultDescription
Flange_bflange (from PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport2)Flange 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)
SI.VelocityvVelocity of flange with respect to support (= der(s))
