Construction and parameterization
In Sketch mode, assemble the component icons as shown in the previous figure. All the components are from the Mechanical, Signal, Control and Simulation libraries.
Once the model is assembled switch to Parameter mode and set the component parameters according to the following table. This table only lists the non-default parameter values you need to set.
| Submodel name and type | Main simulation parameters | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | runstats [RSTAT] statistics of current run | |
| 2 | zerospeedsource [V001] zero speed source (velocity, displacement, acceleration) | |
| 3 | springdamper01 [SD0000A] mechanical spring and damper (no states) | spring rate = 1e+06 N/m damper rating = 150 N/(m/s) |
| 4 | mass_friction_endstops [MECMAS21] 1D translation mass | mass = 5 kg |
| 5 | elasticendstop [LSTP00A] elastic contact (no states) | negative contact force = allowed contact stiffness = 1e+06 N/m contact damping = 0 N/(m/s) |
| 6 | mass_friction_endstops [MECMAS21] 1D translation mass | mass = 0.1 kg |
| 7 | springdamper01 [SD0000A] mechanical spring and damper (no states) | spring rate = 5e+06 N/m damper rating = 0 N/(m/s) |
| 8 | linearxvfromvcon [VELC02] conversion of a signal to a velocity in m/s and a displacement in m | |
| 9 | vsine [VSIN0] variable frequency sine signal source | |
| 10 | ramp [RAMP0] ramp function | value before ramp = 1 null slope = 100 null |
