Rectangle
Visualizing a planar rectangular surface
Library
Modelica/Mechanics/MultiBody/Visualizers
Description
This model visualizes a planar rectangle. The center of the rectangle is located atconnector frame_a (visualized by the red coordinate system in the figure below).The figure below shows two rectangles of the same parameters
nu = 8,nv = 3,length_u = 3,length_v = 2.
The green rectangle on the right is visualized in wireframe thus highlighting the influenceof the discretization. Moreover, the u-axis of this rectangle is modifiedso that the rectangle is rotated about the z-axis of frame_a.
