SpringDamper

Linear 1D rotational spring and damper in parallel

    SpringDamper

Library

Mechanics/Rotational/Components

Description

A spring and damper element connected in parallel. The component can be connected either between two inertias/gears to describe the shaft elasticity and damping, or between an inertia/gear and the housing (component Fixed), to describe a coupling of the element with the housing via a spring/damper.

See also the discussion State Selection in the User's Guide of the Rotational library.
