VARIABLE_EQUATION

 

This subroutine defines a user - defined variable.

 

Language type

SubRoutine

FORTRAN

variable_usub (time,upar,npar,jflag,iflag,result)

C/C++

variable_usub (double time, double upar[], int npar, int jflag, int iflag, double result)

 

Parameter information

 

Variable Name

Size

Description

time

double

Current simulation time of RecurDyn/Solver.

upar

double*

Parameters defined by the user. There is no limit about the maximum size of array.

npar

int

Number of user parameters.

jflag

int

When RecurDyn/Solver evaluates Jacobian, the flag is true. Otherwise, the flag is false.

iflag

int

When RecurDyn/Solver makes its initial call to this routine, the flag is true. Otherwise, the flag is false

result

double

Returned value and one-dimensional variable
