How do I model a hydraulic cylinder that extends on one side?

Bernd-Christian Gödde

Hello all,

I have a rigid body model in which a hydraulic cylinder is to be represented, which is only moved in one direction when viewed from the initial state. Furthermore, this movement is limited. What is the best way to model this?

Regards,

Not really, but thanks for the answer.

After some research I found out that the BISTOP function could help me in my case. Is there any further documentation or are there any applications for this function?
