MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces

connectors of the planar mechanic objects and converters to wrap the bond graphs

Information


This package contains the basic connectors of the planar mechanical elements. 
There are two connector types "Frame_a" and "Frame_b", but their only difference is the symbol and the name.
They both contain exactly the same variables and are therefore semantically identical.

The package contains two converter elements, that enable the comfortable wrapping of bondgraphic models.

MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.Frame_a MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.Frame_a

connector for the planar objects

MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.Frame_a

Information


This is a connector for planar mechanical components. It inherits all its variables
from the basic connector type 'Frame'.

MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.Frame

connector for the planar objects

Information


This is the basic planar mechanical connector type.

The connector defines the following potential variables:

The connector defines the following flow variables:

The potential variables are summarized in a record P. So the variable name has to be preceeded by a P. (I. e.: the gain access to the position: Type frame.P.x.)

All variables are resolved in the inertial system.

Do not use this connector directly! Use its two inheritors "Frame_a" and "Frame_b".

MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.Potentials MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.Potentials

redundant part of the connector for the planar objects

Information


This record contains all potential variables of the planar mechanical connector.

These potential variables form a redundant set of information. This is causing problems by the closure of kinematic loops. To overcome these problems this record also contains the function 'equalityConstraint'.

MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.MBG2Mech MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.MBG2Mech

links the bond graph with the mechanic connector

MultiBondLib.PlanarMechanics.Interfaces.MBG2Mech

Information


This is a converter element. The signals and bond connections of a bondgraphic model
are converted into variables of the mechanical connector. This element enables the wrapping of bondgraphic
models and is acausal.
