Description

Model of a force step at time startTime. Positive force acts accelerating.

Parameters

    ForceStep_0

  • stepForce [N] : Height of force step (if negative, force is acting as load) (stepForce): Scalar.
  • offsetForce [N] : Offset of force (offsetForce): Scalar.
  • startTime [s] : Force = offset for time < startTime (startTime): Scalar.

Ports

  • Port 1 at right position: implicit output fixedport numbered 1.
  • Port 1 at bottom position: implicit output fixedport numbered 2.
