◆ GetTorqueReactionOn1()

virtual double chrono::ChShaftsCouple::GetTorqueReactionOn1 ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Get the reaction torque exchanged between the two shafts, considered as applied to the 1st axis.

Children classes might overload this.

Reimplemented in chrono::ChShaftsClutch, chrono::ChShaftsGear, chrono::ChShaftsTorqueBase, and chrono::ChShaftsMotorBase.

◆ GetTorqueReactionOn2()

virtual double chrono::ChShaftsCouple::GetTorqueReactionOn2 ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Get the reaction torque exchanged between the two shafts, considered as applied to the 2nd axis.

Children classes might overload this.

Reimplemented in chrono::ChShaftsClutch, chrono::ChShaftsGear, chrono::ChShaftsTorqueBase, and chrono::ChShaftsMotorBase.

◆ Initialize()

virtual bool chrono::ChShaftsCouple::Initialize	(	std::shared_ptr< ChShaft >	mshaft1,
		std::shared_ptr< ChShaft >	mshaft2
	)

inlinevirtual

Use this function after gear creation, to initialize it, given two shafts to join.

Each shaft must belong to the same ChSystem. Derived classes might overload this (here, basically it only sets the two pointers)

Parameters

mshaft1	first shaft to join
mshaft2	second shaft to join

Reimplemented in chrono::ChShaftsMotor, chrono::ChShaftsMotorSpeed, chrono::ChShaftsGear, chrono::ChShaftsClutch, and chrono::ChShaftsMotorAngle.
