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.

a−b1, ... ,a−bn

The geometry parameters are the following.

Equations

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

 Ac_ai=AiA_a   0 ≤ Ac_ai≤1 Ac_bi=AiA_b    0 ≤Ac_bi≤1 nc_Ac_a = 1−∑Ac_ak  k=1,..., Nodes_b nc_Ac_bi = 1−Ac_bi
