CURVES DISTANCE BETWEEN POINTS TIMEHISTORY¶
Computes the Euclidean distance time-history between two moving points by consuming their XYZ coordinate vectors over time. Use this worker to derive crush or relative-displacement curves from crashworthiness node-tracking data.
When to use¶
Classification: process.
Tagged: crashworthiness, crush, curves, distance, euclidean, points, time_history, xyz.
Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Point-1 XYZ Coordinates | n1_xyz | vector | — | XYZ coordinate time-history vector for Point 1 (e.g. a node trajectory dataset produced by CURVES_GET_CRASHWORTHINESS); each entry contains [x, y, z] position at a given time step. | |
| Point-2 XYZ Coordinates | n2_xyz | vector | — | XYZ coordinate time-history vector for Point 2 (e.g. a node trajectory dataset produced by CURVES_GET_CRASHWORTHINESS); must share the same time base as n1_xyz so that per-step distances can be computed. |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| curves_distance_between_points_timehistory_output_1 | curves_distance_between_points_timehistory_output_1 | vector | Scalar distance time-history vector (units match the input coordinate units, typically mm) representing the Euclidean distance between Point 1 and Point 2 at each time step. |
