Hello,
I need to make tension-only springs in Simscape Multibody. I found a lookup table-based spring here https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/25238-simscape-language--nonlinear-spring but its ports are "C" and "R" and I can't seem to hook them up to my "B" and "F" ports. That turns out to be a hard thing to google.
Can I use that file to produce tension-only springs in multibody? If so, how do I connect them into my systems? If not, what should I use?
Thank you.

Simscape Foundation Library blocks can be attached to the 3D blocks via interface blocks which can be found in the Simscape Multiphysics Library. This can be downloaded form Github
