One-dimensional translational flange
This is a connector for 1D translational mechanical systems. It has no icon definition and is only used by inheritance from flange connectors to define different icons.
The following variables are defined in this connector:
s: Absolute position of the flange in [m]. A positive translation means that the flange is translated along the flange axis. f: Cut-force in direction of the flange axis in [N].

s | Absolute position of flange [m] |

One-dimensional translational flange (left, flange axis directed INTO cut plane)
This is a connector for 1-dim. translational mechanical systems which represents a mechanical flange. In the cut plane of the flange a unit vector n, called flange axis, is defined which is directed INTO the cut plane, i. e. from left to right. All vectors in the cut plane are resolved with respect to this unit vector. E.g. force f characterizes a vector which is directed in the direction of n with value equal to f. When this flange is connected to other 1D translational flanges, this means that the axes vectors of the connected flanges are identical.
The following variables are transported through this connector:
s: Absolute position of the flange in [m]. A positive translation means that the flange is translated along the flange axis. f: Cut-force in direction of the flange axis in [N].

Rigid connection of two translational 1D flanges

flange_a | Left flange of compliant 1-dim. translational component |
flange_b | Right flange of compliant 1-dim. translational component |
Base model for the compliant connection of two translational 1-dim. shaft flanges where the relative position and relative velocities are used as states
This is a 1-dim. translational component with a compliant connection of two translational 1-dim. flanges where inertial effects between the two flanges are neglected. The basic assumption is that the cut-forces of the two flanges sum-up to zero, i.e., they have the same absolute value but opposite sign: flange_a.f + flange_b.f = 0. This base class is used to built up force elements such as springs, dampers, friction.
The difference to base class "PartialCompliant" is that the relative distance and the relative velocity are defined as preferred states. The reason is that for a large class of drive trains, the absolute position is quickly increasing during operation. Numerically, it is better to use relative distances between drive train components because they remain in a limited size. For this reason, StateSelect.prefer is set for the relative distance of this component.
In order to improve the numerics, a nominal value for the relative distance should be set, since drive train distances are in a small order and then step size control of the integrator is practically switched off for such a variable. A default nominal value of s_nominal = 1e-4 is defined. This nominal value might also be computed from other values, such as "s_nominal = f_nominal / c" for a spring, if f_nominal and c have more meaningful values for the user.

Obsolete partial model. Use PartialElementaryTwoFlangesAndSupport2.
This is a 1-dim. translational component with two flanges and an additional support. It is used e.g., to build up elementary ideal gear components. The component contains the force balance, i.e., the sum of the forces of the connectors is zero (therefore, components that are based on PartialGear cannot have a mass). The support connector needs to be connected to avoid the unphysical behavior that the support force is required to be zero (= the default value, if the connector is not connected).
