40.3. Multi Mass Spring Type C

MMS Type C is composed of a geometric spring shape and Multi Mass bodies (spheres), which are connected with translational joints and axial force. The axial force represents nonlinear stiffness characteristics between Multi Mass Bodies. There are two types of spring, which are One-Step and Two Step. They are different in the nonlinear character.
