Modify Three Phase Gear Force
(Standard Interface) Right-click → Modify Shared Dialog Box
Modifies a Three-Phase Gear Force.
For the option: | Do the following: |
|---|---|
Gear Force Name | Enter a name for the gear force. |
Stiffness | Enter the stiffness. The stiffness coefficient is defined as: stiffness = (torque/pitch radius)/(angular displacement * pitch radius) where: ■Pitch radius - Pitch radius of the first gear. ■When the second gear is held fixed and the damping (or velocity) is zero: ■Torque - Torque on the first gear. ■Angular Displacement - Displacement of the first gear, in radians. The stiffness is in force units/length units. |
Damping | Specify the damping coefficient of the contact force formulation. The damping coefficient is defined as:damping = (torque/pitch radius)/( angular velocity * pitch radius) where: ■Pitch radius - Pitch radius of the first gear ■When the second gear is held fixed and the stiffness is zero: ■Torque - Torque on the first gear. ■Angular Velocity - Velocity of the first gear, in radians/time units. The damping is in force units * time units/length units. |
Oilfilm Thickness | Specify the oilfilm thickness of the contact force formulation. |
 | Select to display a dialog box where you can add multi-line comments to any entity, to describe its purpose and function. Your template-based product displays different comments dialog boxes, depending on the entity type for which you want to record comments: ■If recording comments for modeling entities in Standard Interface, your template-based product displays the Entity Comments dialog box. ■If recording comments for any other entity type, your template-based product displays the Modify Comment dialog box. Learn about Recording Comments. |
 | Select to display the Update Instance(s) dialog box, to update more instances of the current type. |
