Moving Boundary Manager, Rotational

Moving Boundary Manager, Rotational calculates normalized contact area ratio between concentric cylindrical / ring sector and shape with 1-D rotational angles.

  

Description

The Moving Boundary Manager, Rotational component is used for calculating normalized contact area ratio between two concentric Cylindrical / Ring Sector and Cylindrical / Ring Shape B components.

This component can take account of 1-D rotational angles connected with 1-D rotational flange.

flange_a is the rotational angle of center of Sector. flange_b is the rotational angle of center of Node[1] in Cylindrical / Ring Shape B.

The order of coefficients of normalized contact area ratio Ac_a and Ac_b output from Real Signal output ports is as follows.

ab1, ... ,abn

The geometry parameters are the following.

Equations

The coefficients of normalized contact area ratio are defined as follows.

 Ac_ai=AiA_a   0  Ac_ai1 Ac_bi=AiA_b    0 Ac_bi1 nc_Ac_a = 1Ac_ak  k=1,..., Nodes_b nc_Ac_bi = 1Ac_bi
