chrono::ChLinkSpringCB Class Reference

Description

Class for spring-damper systems with the force specified through a functor object.

Optionally, these objects may have internal dynamics, represented by a system of ODEs.

Deprecated:
Use ChLinkTSDA instead. This class will be removed in a future Chrono release.

◆ Initialize()

void chrono::ChLinkSpringCB::Initialize ( std::shared_ptr< ChBody body1,
std::shared_ptr< ChBody body2,
bool  pos_are_relative,
ChVector<>  pos1,
ChVector<>  pos2,
bool  auto_rest_length = true,
double  rest_length = 0 
)

Specialized initialization for springs, given the two bodies to be connected, the positions of the two anchor endpoints of the spring (each expressed in body or abs.

coordinates) and the imposed rest length of the spring. Note: Two markers are automatically created and associated with the two connected bodies.

Parameters
body1first body to link
body2second body to link
pos_are_relativetrue: following pos. are relative to bodies
pos1pos. of spring endpoint for 1st body (rel. or abs., see flag above)
pos2pos. of spring endpoint for 2nd body (rel. or abs., see flag above)
auto_rest_lengthif true, initializes the rest length as the distance between pos1 and pos2
rest_lengthrest length (no need to define if auto_rest_length=true.)
