SignalArrow

Visualizing an arrow with dynamically varying size in frame_a based on input signal

    SignalArrow

Library

Modelica/Mechanics/MultiBody/Visualizers

Description

Model SignalArrow defines an arrow that is dynamically visualized at the location where its frame_a is attached. The position vector from the tail to the head of the arrow, resolved in frame_a, is defined via the signal vector of the connector r_head (Real r_head[3]):
 

model Visualizers.SignalArrow

The tail of the arrow is defined with parameter r_tail with respect to frame_a (vector from the origin of frame_a to the arrow tail).
