double chrono::vehicle::NonlinearSpringDamperForce::evaluate	(	double	time,
		double	rest_length,
		double	length,

		const ChLinkTSDA &	link
	)

overridevirtual

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	associated TSDA link
