Properties
Properties: .doc: """ These properties define the flexibility and dissipation characteristics of the track system. The flexibility is defined through the track's resistance to various deformations: - Tensile: Stretching along the longitudinal axis - Bending: Rotation around vertical and lateral axes - Shear: Deformation along vertical and lateral axes - Torsional: Twisting around the longitudinal axis Each flexibility mode includes stiffness and attenuation factors. The dissipation is defined through internal friction between track segments. bending_rotational_range_min - The min rotational range of the connection between the links. This is rotation around the transversal axis. bending_rotational_range_max - The max rotational range of the connection between the links. This is rotation around the transversal axis. Note that if max <= min then no range is applied to the connection between the links. flexibility - Defines the stiffness properties for all deformation modes. damping - Defines the damping properties for all dissipation - Defines the energy dissipation during deformations. Example: In the example below we define the track flexibility and dissipation properties for a track system. The flexibility is defined using a linear elastic track flexibility model, and the dissipation is defined using a attenuation dissipation model. properties is Vehicles.TrackSystem.Properties: flexibility becomes Vehicles.TrackSystem.Interactions.Flexibility.LinearElastic: tensile.stiffness: 1e8 bending_lateral.stiffness: 50 damping becomes Vehicles.TrackSystem.Interactions.Dissipation.TrackAttenuation: tensile.value: 1.5 track_system is Vehicles.TrackSystem.Base: tracks.link_count: 100 properties: properties track_wheels: [sprocket, idler] """ flexibility is Interactions.Flexibility.DefaultTrackFlexibility damping is Interactions.Dissipation.DefaultTrackDissipation bending_rotational_range_max is Real: 0.3491 bending_rotational_range_min is Real: -2.094395
