CONTACT_DATA

The CONTACT_DATA function returns the max/min magnitude of component comp of all incidents of Track data in CONTACT/id. If flag is set to zero, Adams Solver (C++) returns the maximum value of the Track data incidents. If flag is set to 1, Adams Solver (C++) returns the minimum value of the Track data.

Format

CONTACT_DATA (id, comp, flag)

Arguments

 
id
An integer specifying the identification number of the Adams CONTACT.
comp
An integer value that specifies the component of the CONTACT_DATA to be returned.
1- Track Penetration Depth magnitude
2- Track Penetration Velocity magnitude
3- Track Penetration Boring Velocity magnitude
4- Track Slip Deformation magnitude
5- Track Slip Velocity magnitude
flag
An integer flag specifying whether the maximum or minimum value of component is desired.
0 = maximum value of component
1 = minimum value of component

Examples
