Hi,
I'm simulating the fall of a mass held by a dynamic rope, as in the case of climbing. I modeled the rope with 100 type 4 spring elements in series. I have given laws as a function of the deformations that follow the odgen model instead of the law "f". I wanted to know if the law is applied to every single element or if it is applied to the whole component directly. I also imposed a law of damping with two different constants based on the sign of the strain rate by defining the function "h", is that correct?
