How to make a "flexible" hose in MDO

- this is in response to a previous question. It's nothing fancy, but can be a lot of fun to play with. Try modifying the amplitude of the driver on the center joint. Add contact between the hose and some other new geometry...

(I really quickly remodeled this in Creo 2.0 so forgive me for any stupid errors)

PS: I gave the joints between the hose segments a finite stiffness, so if you run the static analysis in MDO you'll see the whole thing want to take on a new shape
