Motion On |
Select the joint open degree of freedom to which the motion generator
is applied. |
|
Motion Type |
Select the type of motion applied to the selected open degree
of freedom.
Free
- There is no motion generator attached to this degree of freedom. Displacement
- There is a motion generator controlling the displacement of this
degree of freedom. Velocity
- There is a motion generator controlling the velocity of this
degree of freedom. Acceleration
- There is a motion generator controlling the acceleration of this
degree of freedom. |
|
Initial Displacement |
If the Motion Type is
Velocity or Acceleration,
displays the displacement applied to the degree of freedom at the start
of the simulation. |
|
Initial Velocity |
If the Motion Type is
Acceleration, displays the velocity
applied to the degree of freedom at the start of the simulation. |
|
Function |
Select the function that drives the motion generator assigned
to this degree of freedom.
Constant Step Harmonic Spline Expression
- Only available if Function, above, is selected and if a model created
by COSMOSMotion
with a function driven by an expression is opened in COSMOSMotion.
The simulation can be run using the expression, but the expression cannot
be changed nor can a new expression be added.
Specify the following:
Expression
- Edits the force or moment expression. If you make a change to
an expression, the A button verifies and accepts the change and the X
button cancels the change.  Function
- Inserts a function into the motion expression using dialog templates
with fields for function arguments at the current insertion point. The
new function replaces any selected text. If you select an existing function
and the template dialog box recognizes it, it initializes the template
fields with the function's arguments for editing.
Marker - Inserts a Marker ID into the motion expression at the
current insertion point, replacing any selected text. Certain MSC.ADAMS
functions require a Marker ID as an argument.
 Cancel
- Cancels all changes to the expression since the last Check.
 Check
- Verifies changes to the expression. If an error exists, a message
indicates the offending position.
 Plot
Functions - Displays a plot of the current function (for constant,
step, harmonic,
and spline functions
only).
