Description
When this box is checked, a pendulum length
can be entered. From the original track defi-
nition, a pendulum centre is defined exactly
above the axis point. The difference in eleva-
tion of the pendulum centre is the pendulum
length. With the help of the superelevation,
a displacement is calculated. The effect of
the pendular displacement is displayed on
the page.
