The FZ function returns the force value, calculated using two markers with a force or joint entity, in the z-direction of a standard marker.
Format
Arguments definition
Marker1 |
The name or argument number of a force to be measured, joint entity action, or base marker |
Marker2 |
The name or argument number of a force to be measured, joint entity action, or base marker (not Marker1) |
Marker3 |
The name or argument number of the standard marker for the direction in which the force is measured • If omitted, then the InertiaMarker is applied. |
Formulation
: Force vector from Marker2 to Marker1
: z-direction unit vector for Marker3
Example
FZ(body1.marker1, body2.marker2)
FZY(body1.marker1, body2.marker2, body3.marker3)
FZ(1,2) <Argument: (1)body1.marker1, (2)body2.marker2 >
FZ(1,2,3) <Argument (1)body1.marker1, (2)body2.marker2 , (3)body3.marker3 >
