Special Outputs

 

RecurDyn/Track LM automates the generation of relevant outputs for a track system, saving the user valuable time converting the general outputs into data needed to design or analyze his system. The following table summarizes the custom outputs for RecurDyn/Track LM.

Outputs

Track-Body

TrackLink#

 

Pos_

Position and 3-1-3 euler angles of a Track Link's center marker in the inertia reference frame.

 

 

 

Vel_

Velocity of a Track Link's center marker. The translational velocity is measured in the inertia reference frame. The angular velocity is measured in its center marker.

 

 

 

Acc_

Acceleration of a Track Link's center marker. The translational acceleration is measured in the inertia reference frame. The angular acceleration is measured in its center marker.

Track-Force

Link

Link#

_Roller

Contact Forces between a Wheel and a Track Link. The x, y and z components of the translational force generalized at the center marker of the Track Link due to the contact force acting on the contact point of the Track Link in its center marker.

 

 

 

_Sprocket

Contact Forces between a Sprocket and a Track Link. The x, y and z components of the translational force generalized at the center marker of the Track Link due to the contact force acting on the contact point of the Track Link in its center marker.

 

 

 

_Ground

Contact Forces between a Ground and a Track Link. The x, y and z components of the translational force generalized at the center marker of the Track Link due to the contact force acting on the contact point of the Track Link in its center marker.

 

 

 

_RGuard

Contact Forces between a Roller Guard and a Track Link. The x, y and z components of the translational force generalized at the center marker of the Track Link due to the contact force acting on the contact point of the Track Link in its center marker.

 

 

 

BushingTension

Tension generated in a Track Link.

 

 

 

_Sphere

Contact Forces between a Sphere and a Track Link. The x, y and z components of the translational force generalized at the center marker of the Track Link due to the contact force acting on the contact point of the Track Link in its center marker.
