virtual double chrono::vehicle::LinearSpringForce::operator() ( double  time, double  rest_length, double  length, double  vel, ChLinkTSDA *  link  )

inlineoverridevirtual

Calculate and return the general spring-damper force at the specified configuration.

If the link has internal ODE states, the current states can be accessed with link->GetStates().

Parameters

time	current time
rest_length	undeformed length
length	current length
vel	current velocity (positive when extending)
link	back-pointer to associated link

Implements chrono::ChLinkTSDA::ForceFunctor.
