Returns the kinetic energy of a rigid or flexible body.

Format

KE(id)

Arguments

id: The ID of the body. id=0 returns total kinetic energy of the entire system.

Example

<Reference_Variable
     id   = "300"
     type = "EXPRESSION"
     expr = "KE(0)"
/>

Comments

By default, the kinetic energy is reported in SI units regardless of the units used in the model.
