Translational.Spring

Linear 1D Translational spring This component is translated by DyadAI

This component extends from PartialCompliant

Usage

TranslatedComponents.Translational.Spring(c=1, s_rel0=0)

Parameters:

Name	Description	Units	Default value
c	Spring constant	N/m	1
s_rel0	Unstretched spring length	m	0

Connectors

• flange_a - This connector represents a mechanical flange with position and force as the potential and flow variables, respectively. (Flange)

• flange_b - This connector represents a mechanical flange with position and force as the potential and flow variables, respectively. (Flange)

Variables

Name	Description	Units
s_rel	Relative distance (= flange_b.s - flange_a.s)	m
f	Force between flanges (positive in direction of flange axis R)	N

Behavior

$$\begin{array}{rl}\mathtt{s}\mathtt{\_}\mathtt{rel}\left(t\right)& =\mathtt{flange}\mathtt{\_}\mathtt{b}\mathtt{.}\mathtt{s}\left(t\right)-\mathtt{flange}\mathtt{\_}\mathtt{a}\mathtt{.}\mathtt{s}\left(t\right)\\ \mathtt{flange}\mathtt{\_}\mathtt{b}\mathtt{.}\mathtt{f}\left(t\right)& =f\left(t\right)\\ \mathtt{flange}\mathtt{\_}\mathtt{a}\mathtt{.}\mathtt{f}\left(t\right)& =-f\left(t\right)\\ f\left(t\right)& =c(-\mathtt{s}\mathtt{\_}\mathtt{rel}\mathtt{0}+\mathtt{s}\mathtt{\_}\mathtt{rel}\left(t\right))\end{array}$$
