ParameterDescription
1. NameUse to define a bearing component which is defined by the revolute joint, the rotational scalar, or bushing. The rotational axis should be defined as the z-axis of the base marker.
2. FrictionUse to set the friction coefficient.
3. DiameterUse to set the diameter to calculate tangential velocity.
