Hi,
I want to deactivate/activate an element group using sensors.
How to create the /ACTIV card to call upon the element group
Also Please do share me tutorials on sensors ADD, NOT, OR, RWALL, INTER
Hello Karthic,
/ACTIV can be used to deactivate/activate an element group using sensors.All elements belonging to specified groups are deactivated when the sensor is activated. User has to create a sensor for the same and the same has to be recalled in this card and the element group to deactivated has to be also recalled in the same card. You can find the card in Tools> Create Cards-->Control Cards-->ACTIV
Unfortunately, we dont have any example files for the same.
Please go through Example 12 - Jumping Bicycle in Help Menu which shows simulation of a sequence of events managed using 'sensors'. The model file is attached for your reference.
Unable to find an attachment - read this blog
HI George,
I too have the same help example but i can not find where the sensors are called or used.
Hi Karthic,
Review the file in HyperCrash and from RADIOSS Tools> select Sensors and review each sensor.
I am attaching a simple spring model with a distance sensor and /ACTIV card.
Please review the engine out file where you can see the element deactivation as soon as sensor is activated.
Thank you George
I reviewed the same in Hyper-crash, But I can not find the information for which collector the sensor is used in ??
