This command measure the force of a rigid group based on its joints during the simulation.

Creation stages / Use:

Click the icon or select Simulation > Measurements > Force Measurement... command from the drop-down menu.

1. Select the mobile rigid group.

2. Select a source from the proposed forces or joints in the drop down list.

3. Select Amplitude or Projection. Projection allows you to fill in a direction. The measure value will be regarding this direction (positive or negative).

4. If Projection is selected, select the direction of projection.

5. Also select if the projection is absolute or relative. The measurement in relative projection is the measurement in relation to the rigid group which can also have a force. The measurement in absolute projection will be in relation to the absolute direction selected.

6. Drop the measurement created in the entities tree in the desired simulation(s).
