PartialCompliant

Base model for a 1D translational compliant connection.

This partial component establishes the fundamental kinematic and force relationships for a generic compliant connection between two 1D translational mechanical flanges, flange_a and flange_b. It defines the relative displacement, $s_{rel}$, between the flanges and the internal force, $f$, transmitted through the compliant element. The defining equations are: Relative displacement: $s_{rel} = flange_b.s - flange_a.s$ Force on flange_b: $flange_b.f = f$ Force on flange_a: $flange_a.f = -f$ This model is partial and intended to be extended by concrete components that will specify the constitutive law for $f$ based on $s_{rel}$ and/or its time derivatives (e.g., a spring or damper).

Usage

# This partial component establishes the fundamental kinematic and force relationships for a generic compliant
# connection between two 1D translational mechanical flanges, `flange_a` and `flange_b`. It defines the
# relative displacement, $s_{rel}$, between the flanges and the internal force, $f$,
# transmitted through the compliant element.
# The defining equations are:
# Relative displacement: $s_{rel} = flange_b.s - flange_a.s$
# Force on `flange_b`: $flange_b.f = f$
# Force on `flange_a`: $flange_a.f = -f$
# This model is `partial` and intended to be extended by concrete components that will specify the
# constitutive law for $f$ based on $s_{rel}$ and/or its time derivatives (e.g., a spring or damper).
