A flange is described by the connector class Flange_a or Flange_b. As already noted in section Overview, the two connector classes are completely identical. There is only a difference in the icons, in order to easier identify a flange variable in a diagram. Both connector classes contain the following variables:
SI.Position s "Absolute position of flange"; flow SI.Force f "Cut force directed into flange";
If needed, the velocity v
and the
acceleration a
of a flange connector can be
determined by differentiation of the flange position s
:
v = der(s); a = der(v);
