Information

The gas force in a cylinder is computed as function of the relative distance of the two flanges. It is required that s_rel = flange_b.s - flange_a.s is in the range

    0 ≤ s_rel ≤ L

where the parameter L is the length of the cylinder. If this assumption is not fulfilled, an error occurs.
