I have a double-acting cylinder connected to a mass at its mechanical port R, and I am adding pressure at end A of the cylinder to extend the piston and hence drop the mass. I want to add a gravitational acceleration acting on the mass as well. I tried to use the ideal force source (to implement F=mg), but it does not seem to work. I have uploaded a screenshot to show what I did. Could you please help me?
Thanks a lot. Asmaa
