DefaultTrackDissipation
DefaultTrackDissipation: .doc: """ Defines dampings for each constrained degree of freedom for a Track System. tensile - Attenuation factor for longitudinal tension/compression. Damps high-frequency oscillations during stretching and compression of track segments. bending_vertical - Damping for bending around the VERTICAL axis. Damps oscillations in side-to-side bending of the track. bending_lateral - Damping for bending around the LATERAL axis. Damps oscillations in sagging (bending across track width). shear_vertical - Damping for shear deformation along the VERTICAL axis. Damps oscillations in shear deformation across the track height. shear_lateral - Damping for shear deformation along the LATERAL axis. Damps oscillations in shear deformation across the track width. torsional - Damping for torsional deformation around the main track longitudinal axis. Damps oscillations in twisting of the track about its longitudinal axis. vertical_bushing_damping - Scales the viscous damping in the vertical movement between track links, representing velocity-dependent energy dissipation in inter-link bushings. This is a scaling parameter with default value of 1. Increaset this value if you experience excessive vertical oscillations of the track links. Decrease this value if the track becomes overly damped, observed as a sluggish vertical response and a slow return to equilibrium after excitation. min_normal_force - minimum normal force used in dissipation calculation. bending_friction_coefficient - scales the dissipative force between track links based on the normal force. The friction limit in the dissipation is: f_L = normal force * bending_friction_coefficient The normal force is computed as: max(F_n, min_normal_force) Note: dissipation scales with 1 / (track node mass)^2.
