*SetForce() - symmetric translational for command sets
Creates a set force for a pair.
Syntax
*SetForce(ftpair, LEFT/RIGHT, fxl, fyl, fzl)
Arguments
- ftpair
- The variable name of the set force.
- LEFT/RIGHT
-
- Left
- If specified, the properties are assigned to the left set force, and the right is made symmetric to the left.
- RIGHT
- If specified, the properties are assigned to the right set force, and the left properties are made symmetric to the right.
- fxl, fyl, fzl
- Numbers, MDL expressions, or solver expressions that determine the values of the translational X, Y, and Z components of the force.
Example
*BeginMDL(the_model, "Example model")
*Analysis(the_analysis, "The analysis", andef)
*DefineAnalysis(andef)
*ActionOnlyForcePair(frc_0, "Force 0", TRANS, B_Ground, P_Global_Origin,
Global_Frame)
*SetForce(frc_wc, RIGHT, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0)
*CommandSet(the_commandset, "Simple command set", evdef, frc_0, tpl_begin, tpl_end)
*Template(tpl_begin, "Begin template", USER, tpldef_commandset_begin)
*Template(tpl_end, "End template", USER, tpldef_commandset_end)
*Template(tpl_superfluous, "Should be ignored", ACF, tpldef_commandset_begin)
*EndDefine()
*DefineCommandSet(evdef, local_frc_0, local_tpl_begin, local_tpl_end)
*Write(local_tpl_begin)
*SetForce(frc_wc, RIGHT, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0)
*Write(local_tpl_end)
*EndDefine()
*DefineTemplate(tpldef_commandset_begin)
{AbsToRelative(Solver_File_basename.path, Solver_File_basename.value +
".adm")}

*EndDefine()
*DefineTemplate(tpldef_commandset_end)
STOP
*EndDefine()
*EndMDL()
Context
*BeginMDL()
*DefineCommandSet()
Comments
This statement is similar to the *SetForce() statement for a model except that it sets the force or forcepair contents within the solver command file.
