Non linear spring
Altair EmployeeDears,
I want to simulate a nonlinear spring. i have an experimental data of force and displacement, have input the data for the spring constant as a curve where the x-axis=displacement, y-axis=force. I have applied a force on the spring, but always getting the same displacement for different values of forces. Can any one help please

FYI, refer to the Defining Non-linear Properties Using Curves in MotionVIew help.

Altair EmployeeHi Aftab,
I have changed the force value in the curve randomly and I can see the change in output force.
Make sure you have given the right independent variable.

Altair EmployeeHi,
I'm interested in the same topic. I need to model a nonlinear spring having a curve. I tried to download the .zip file but it is corrupted.
What should I do in order to realize a mass spring damper system using a nonlinear characteristic?

Hi Aftab,
The curve is not defined properly in your model. Please check this.
