Bushing

 

A bushing force provides a full, six degree-of-freedom (DOF) connector between two bodies. The bushing characteristics are defined by the stiffness and damping coefficients for all six DOFs. It defines the characteristic of bushing by the stiffness parameter and the damping parameter as the spring force or the rotational spring force.
