Member Function Documentation

◆ GetMaxSteeringAngle()

virtual double chrono::vehicle::WheeledVehicle::GetMaxSteeringAngle ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Return the maximum steering angle.

This default implementation estimates the maximum steering angle based on a bicycle model and the vehicle minimum turning radius.

Reimplemented from chrono::vehicle::ChWheeledVehicle.

◆ GetMinTurningRadius()

virtual double chrono::vehicle::WheeledVehicle::GetMinTurningRadius ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Return the minimum turning radius.

A concrete wheeled vehicle class should override the default value (20 m).

Reimplemented from chrono::vehicle::ChWheeledVehicle.

◆ Initialize()

void chrono::vehicle::WheeledVehicle::Initialize ( const ChCoordsys<> &  chassisPos,
double  chassisFwdVel = 0 
)
overridevirtual

Initialize this vehicle at the specified global location and orientation.

Parameters
[in]chassisPosinitial global position and orientation
[in]chassisFwdVelinitial chassis forward velocity

Implements chrono::vehicle::ChVehicle.
