DisplacementMultiplier

Displacement multiplier.
Property Long name Unit Description
Name Name - Name of the displacement multiplier.
Comments Comments - Comments on the displacement multiplier.
Signal Signal -
Harmonic
Sets the displacement multiplier signal to harmonic.
Table
Sets the displacement multiplier signal to table.
Amplitude Amplitude - Amplitude of the displacement multiplier when harmonic is used.
Frequency Frequency Hz Frequency of the displacement multiplier when harmonic is used.
Phase Phase ° Phase of the displacement multiplier when harmonic is used.
Table Table - Table with time and multiplier values when table is used.
DataType Data type -
Displacements
Sets the displacement multiplier datatype to displacements.
Velocities
Sets the displacement multiplier datatype to velocities.
Accelerations
Sets the displacement multiplier datatype to accelerations.
DampingRatio DampingRatio - The damping ratio is the amount of damping necessary to let a single degree-of-freedom system smoothly stop without rebouncing. Default value is 5. Range: 0-100
ScalingType ScalingType -
Scaling factor (default)
All the multipliers are multiplied by the scaling factor (default = 1).
Maximum multiplier
The scaling factor is determined as the ratio between the desired maximum value and the maximum value of the multiplier (in absolute value). Then, all the multipliers are multiplied by the resulting scaling factor.
ScalingValue ScalingValue - The value of the scaling factor (1.0 by default).
MaxMultiplier MaxMultiplier - The maximum value of the multiplier (in absolute value).
MaxPeriod MaxPeriod - Max period value. Default value is 10. Range: 0.1-100.
IsTransformationDirty IsTransformationDirty -
True
Enables the displacement multiplier drift correction when table is used.
False
Disables the displacement multiplier drift correction when table is used.
DriftCorrection Drift correction -
True
Enables the displacement multiplier drift correction when table is used.
False
Disables the displacement multiplier drift correction when table is used.
