This system models a mast mooring system with a mooring cone connection
and a mooring wire. The mooring cone MUST be located at the aircraft's
visual reference point (VRP).
Usage:
Include the visual-reference-point-extensions system first.
Define the following constant properties:
For the mooring cone connection:
mooring/mooring-spring-coeff-lbs_ft [lbs/ft]
mooring/mooring-damping-coeff-lbs_fps [lbs*sec/ft]
mooring/max-mooring-force-lbs [lbs]
For the mooring wire:
mooring/wire-spring-coeff-lbs_ft [lbs/ft]
mooring/max-wire-force-lbs [lbs]
mooring/max-winch-speed-fps [ft/sec]
For the mooring cone connection:
mooring/mooring-spring-coeff-lbs_ft
mooring/mooring-damping-coeff-lbs_fps
mooring/max-mooring-force-lbs
