The 3 signals of the force connector are interpreted as the x-, y- and z-coordinates of a force acting at the frame connector to which frame_b of this component is attached. Via parameter resolveInFrame it is defined, in which frame these coordinates shall be resolved:
Types.ResolveInFrameB. | Meaning |
---|---|
world | Resolve input force in world frame (= default) |
frame_b | Resolve input force in frame_b |
frame_resolve | Resolve input force in frame_resolve (frame_resolve must be connected) |
If resolveInFrame = Types.ResolveInFrameB.frame_resolve, the force coordinates are with respect to the frame, that is connected to frame_resolve.
If force={100,0,0}, and for all parameters the default setting is used, then the interpretation is that a force of 100 N is acting along the positive x-axis of frame_b.
Note, the cut-torque in frame_b (frame_b.t) is always set to zero. Conceptually, a force and torque acts on the world frame in such a way that the force and torque balance between world.frame_b and frame_b is fulfilled. For efficiency reasons, this reaction torque is, however, not computed.
This force component is by default visualized as an arrow acting at the connector to which it is connected. The diameter and color of the arrow can be defined via variables diameter and color. The arrow points in the direction defined by the force signal. The length of the arrow is proportional to the length of the force vector using parameter N_to_m as scaling factor. For example, if N_to_m = 100 N/m, then a force of 350 N is displayed as an arrow of length 3.5 m.
An example how to use this model is given in the following figure:

This torque component is by default visualized as a double arrow acting at the connector to which it is connected. The diameter and color of the arrow can be defined via variables diameter and color. The double arrow points in the direction defined by the torque vector. The length of the double arrow is proportional to the length of the torque vector using parameter Nm_to_m as scaling factor.

Conceptually, a force and torque acts on the world frame in such a way that the force and torque balance between world.frame_b and frame_b is fulfilled. For efficiency reasons, this reaction torque is, however, not computed.
The force and torque are by default visualized as an arrow (force) and as a double arrow (torque) acting at the connector to which they are connected. The diameters and colors of the arrows can be defined via variables forceDiameter, torqueDiameter, forceColor and torqueColor. The arrows point in the directions defined by the force and torque vectors. The lengths of the arrows are proportional to the length of the force and torque vectors, respectively, using parameters N_to_m and Nm_to_m as scaling factors. For example, if N_to_m = 100 N/m, then a force of 350 N is displayed as an arrow of length 3.5 m.

---|---|
world | Resolve input force/torque in world frame |
frame_a | Resolve input force/torque in frame_a |
frame_b | Resolve input force/torque in frame_b (= default) |
frame_resolve | Resolve input force/torque in frame_resolve (frame_resolve must be connected) |
If resolveInFrame = ResolveInFrameAB.frame_resolve, the force and torque coordinates are with respect to the frame, that is connected to frame_resolve.
If force={100,0,0}, and for all parameters the default setting is used, then the interpretation is that a force of 100 N is acting along the positive x-axis of frame_b.
Note, a force and torque acts on frame_a in such a way that the force and torque balance between frame_a and frame_b is fulfilled.
An example how to use this model is given in the following figure:
This leads to the following animation (the yellow cylinder characterizes the line between frame_a and frame_b of the ForceAndTorque component, i.e., the force and torque acts with negative sign also on the opposite side of this cylinder, but for clarity this is not shown in the animation):

This component is used to exert a line force between the origin of frame_a and the origin of frame_b by attaching components of the 1-dimensional translational mechanical library of Modelica (Modelica.Mechanics.Translational) between the two flange connectors flange_a and flange_b. Optionally, there is a point mass on the line connecting the origin of frame_a and the origin of frame_b. This point mass approximates the mass of the force element. The distance of the point mass from frame_a as a fraction of the distance between frame_a and frame_b is defined via parameter lengthFraction (default is 0.5, i.e., the point mass is in the middle of the line).
In the translational library there is the implicit assumption that forces of components that have only one flange connector act with opposite sign on the bearings of the component. This assumption is also used in the LineForceWithMass component: If a connection is present to only one of the flange connectors, then the force in this flange connector acts implicitly with opposite sign also in the other flange connector.

Possible reasons for this situation: - At initial time the distance may already be zero: Change the initial positions of the bodies connected by this element. - Hardware stops are not modeled or are modeled not stiff enough. Include stops, e.g., stiff springs, or increase the stiffness if already present. - Another error in your model may lead to unrealistically large forces and torques that would in reality destroy the stops. - The flange_b connector might be defined by a pre-defined motion, e.g., with Modelica.Mechanics.Translational.Position and the predefined flange_b.s is zero or negative.

This component is used to exert a line force between the origin of frame_a and the origin of frame_b by attaching components of the 1-dimensional translational mechanical library of Modelica (Modelica.Mechanics.Translational) between the two flange connectors flange_a and flange_b. Optionally, there are two point masses on the line connecting the origin of frame_a and the origin of frame_b. These point masses approximate the masses of the force element. The locations of the two point masses are defined by their (fixed) distances of L_a relative to frame_a and of L_b relative to frame_b, respectively.
In example MultiBody.Examples.Elementary.LineForceWithTwoMasses the usage of this line force element is shown and is compared with an alternative implementation using a MultiBody.Joints.Assemblies.JointUPS component. The composition diagram of this example is displayed in the figure below.
The animation view at time = 0 is shown in the next figure. The system on the left side in the front is the animation with the LineForceWithTwoMasses component whereas the system on the right side in the back is the animation with the JointUPS component. Both implementations yield the same result. However, the implementation with the LineForceWithTwoMasses component is simpler.
In the translational library there is the implicit assumption that forces of components that have only one flange connector act with opposite sign on the bearings of the component. This assumption is also used in the LineForceWithTwoMasses component: If a connection is present to only one of the flange connectors, then the force in this flange connector acts implicitly with opposite sign also in the other flange connector.

Linear spring acting as line force between frame_a and frame_b. A force f is exerted on the origin of frame_b and with opposite sign on the origin of frame_a along the line from the origin of frame_a to the origin of frame_b according to the equation:
f = c*(s - s_unstretched);
where "c" and "s_unstretched" are parameters and "s" is the distance between the origin of frame_a and the origin of frame_b.
Optionally, the mass of the spring is taken into account by a point mass located on the line between frame_a and frame_b (default: middle of the line). If the spring mass is zero, the additional equations to handle the mass are removed.
In the following figure a typical animation of the spring is shown. The blue sphere in the middle of the spring characterizes the location of the point mass.
