Updated Components

Updated Component

Changes to Component

Hydraulics > Linear Actuators > Double Acting Cylinder

The new boolean parameter Reversed allows reversing the positive flow direction.

There is an option to use diameters to specify the areas.

Variable port volumes calculated based on the piston relative position can be added to side A and side B.

Multibody > Visualization > Cylindrical Geometry

When new Use inputs check box is selected, inner and outer radii (as well as start and end angles, if it is a partial cylinder) are given via real input signals.

Multibody > Visualization > Box Geometry

When new Use inputs check box is selected, height and width are given via real input signals.

Multibody > Visualization > Spherical Geometry

When new Use input check box is selected, radius is given via a real input signal.

Multibody > Visualization > Tapered Cylinder Geometry

The inner and outer radii at each end of the tapered cylinder can now be specified.

Multibody > Visualization > Torus Geometry

When new Use inputs check box is selected, big/small radii as well as start and end angles are given via real input signals.
