TeimOrbit 2D Road Type: sine_sweep
Linear Sweep
The frequency increases linearly with respect to travel distance. The road height value z(s) as function of travel distance s is calculated as follows:
Note: The factor 2 in the denominator is not an error!
The actual frequency (= derivative of the sine function argument with respect to travel path, divided by 2π; this is not equal to the factor that is multiplied by 2π(s-ss) in the sine function!) is given by:
Logarithmic sweep
With every cycle, the wave length decreases by a constant factor. The road height value is calculated as follows:
Where,
is the travel path where theoretically an infinitely high frequency is reached, measured relative to sweep start . The actual frequency is given by:
The swept sine road is implemented as a 2D road type. If the ROAD_TYPE
is set to sine_sweep, COSIN/road searches and reads the following data
