Motivation
Gear pairs with clearance introduce discontinuous contact forces that a linear mesh stiffness cannot capture. This PR enables backlash-aware multi-rotor simulations while keeping the previous linear mesh coupling when backlash is disabled.
Changes
Multi-rotor package
ross/multi_rotor/(MultiRotor,GearElement,Mesh)Backlash(force calculation for Newmark) inMesh.MultiRotoraccepts abacklashdict (enable,initial,error_amp,smooth_operator,sigma).Improve transient integration
newmark_type="simple"|"robust", and fix coupling/force assembly so backlash works correctly inMultiRotor.Usage sketch
