Parametric Diagram - Dynamics
In this Parametric diagram the Constraint Block - Straight Line Vehicle Dynamics - from the previous example has been expanded to show how it can be modeled with a number of constraint properties. The Straight Line Vehicle Dynamics constraint is represented by the diagram frame and the constituent equations that contribute to the overall equation are modeled in the diagram as constraint properties. Each constraint on which the constraint properties are based has a constraint equation defined, which is shown in curly braces {} on the diagram; for example, the Acceleration Equation is defined within the Constraint Block as {a = (550/32)*tp(hp)*dt*tw}. Binding Connectors are used to relate the parameters (variables) in one equation to the parameters (variables) in another equation.
