Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ WheeledTrailer()

chrono::vehicle::WheeledTrailer::WheeledTrailer ( ChSystem system,
const std::string &  filename,
bool  create_tires = true 
)

Create a wheeld trailer system from the provided JSON specification file.

If indicated, the associated tires are also created (if specified in the JSON file).

Member Function Documentation

◆ Initialize()

void chrono::vehicle::WheeledTrailer::Initialize ( std::shared_ptr< ChChassis frontChassis)
overridevirtual

Initialize this trailer relative to the specified front chassis.

This base class implementation only initializes the trailer chassis and connector subsystems. Derived classes must extend this function to initialize the axle subsystems.

Reimplemented from chrono::vehicle::ChWheeledTrailer.
