Member Function Documentation

RandomGenerate()

virtual std::shared_ptr<ChBody> chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreator::RandomGenerate ( ChCoordsys<>  mcoords )

pure virtual

Function that creates a random ChBody particle each time it is called.

Note: it MUST BE IMPLEMENTED by children classes!

Implemented in chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreatorFromFamilies, chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreatorShavings, chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreatorConvexHulls, chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreatorCylinders, chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreatorBoxes, and chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreatorSpheres.

RandomGenerateAndCallbacks()

virtual std::shared_ptr<ChBody> chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreator::RandomGenerateAndCallbacks ( ChCoordsys<>  mcoords )

inlinevirtual

This function does RandomGenerate and also executes the the custom callback, if provided.

Usually no need to override.

SetAddCollisionShape()

void chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreator::SetAddCollisionShape ( bool  addcoll )

inline

Set if the created particles must include the collision shape(s).

Note that this is ON by default. Switching off will turn off the collision.

SetAddVisualizationAsset()

void chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreator::SetAddVisualizationAsset ( bool  addvisual )

inline

Set if the created particles must include the visualization asset(s).

This is ON by default. Switching off might be more memory efficient for very large simulations that are batch-processed only.
