Inertia-free translatory element

| C |
in the palette on the schematic
The block is designed to simulate the translatory smotion of the body of zero mass. The block calculates the linear acceleration in such a way that the sum of all forces acting on the body is equal to 0:

where:
  • N – number of blocks connected to this block
  • Fi – force coming from the i-th block, N
