Direction of force input for a prismatic joint

5 views (last 30 days)
Does the force input for actuation of a prismatic joint act in the opposite direction when a negative value is applied compared to a positive value?

I wonder where the 'PrismaticJointModel' model is?

@ Yifeng Tang,
To answer your question, it is assumed to be a custom model created within the Simulink environment. Also, I do appreciate your consideration and contribution towards resolving this problem.

Yes, you are correct. When you provide a negative value for the actuation force, it's applied in the opposite direction with the same magnitude. The positive direction, I believe, is from the base frame (B) towards the follower frame (F).
