Description

Linear spring and linear damperin parallel acting as line force between frame_a and frame_b.A force f is exerted on the origin of frame_b and with opposite signon the origin of frame_a along the line from the origin of frame_a to the originof frame_b according to the equation:

   f = c*(s - s_unstretched) + d*der(s);

where "c", "s_unstretched" and "d" are parameters, "s" is thedistance between the origin of frame_a and the origin of frame_band der(s) is the time derivative of s.
