Damper#

block

Block appearance in REPEAT VISION#

 The block implements a mathematical model of an ideal viscous damper with a constant dampingcoefficient described by the following equation (1):

(1)#\[ F=D\cdot\left(V_R-V_C\right) \]

where:

 \(F\left(t\right)\) - damping force, [N];

 \(D\) - damping factor, [N \(\cdot \) s/m];

 \(V_R\left(t\right)\) - R port speed, [m/s];

 \(V_C\left(t\right)\) - C port speed, [m/s].
