The block is designed to simulate a linear rotary damper with the variable damping factor
The damper relative speed ω in rad/s is determined by the formula:


where ωC, ωR – angular speeds at ports "C" and "R", respectively, rad/s
The damper torque is determined by the formula:




where:
- TC and TC – torques applied to ports "C" and "R", respectively, Nm
- D – defined damping factor, Nm·s/rad
- Dmin – minimum damping factor, Nm/rad·s
