Description

Physical system.

This class is used to represent a multibody physical system, so it acts also as a database for most items involved in simulations, most noticeably objects of ChBody and ChLink classes, which are used to represent mechanisms.

Moreover, it also owns some global settings and features, like the gravity acceleration, the global time and so on.

This object will be responsible of performing the entire physical simulation (dynamics, kinematics, statics, etc.), so you need at least one ChSystem object in your program, in order to perform simulations (you'll insert rigid bodies and links into it..)

Note that this is an abstract class, in your code you must create a system from one of the concrete classes: chrono::ChSystemNSC (for non-smooth contacts) or chrono::ChSystemSMC (for smooth 'penalty' contacts).

Member Function Documentation

◆ Add()

void chrono::ChSystem::Add ( std::shared_ptr< ChPhysicsItem > item )

Attach an arbitrary ChPhysicsItem (e.g.

ChBody, ChParticles, ChLink, etc.) to the assembly. It will take care of adding it to the proper list of bodies, links, meshes, or generic physic item. (i.e. it calls AddBody(), AddLink(), AddMesh(), or AddOtherPhysicsItem()). Note, you cannot call Add() during an Update (i.e. items like particle generators that are already inserted in the assembly cannot call this) because not thread safe; instead, use AddBatch().

◆ AddBatch()

void chrono::ChSystem::AddBatch ( std::shared_ptr< ChPhysicsItem > item )

inline

Items added in this way are added like in the Add() method, but not instantly, they are simply queued in a batch of 'to add' items, that are added automatically at the first Setup() call.

This is thread safe.

◆ Clone()

virtual ChSystem* chrono::ChSystem::Clone ( ) const

pure virtual

"Virtual" copy constructor.

Concrete derived classes must implement this.

Implemented in chrono::ChSystemMulticoreSMC, chrono::ChSystemMulticoreNSC, chrono::ChSystemSMC, and chrono::ChSystemNSC.

◆ ComputeCollisions()

double chrono::ChSystem::ComputeCollisions ( )

Perform the collision detection.

New contacts are inserted in the ChContactContainer object(s), and old ones are removed. This is mostly called automatically by time integration.

◆ CustomEndOfStep()

virtual void chrono::ChSystem::CustomEndOfStep ( )

inlinevirtual

Executes custom processing at the end of step.

By default it does nothing, but if you inherit a special ChSystem you can implement this.

◆ DoAssembly()

bool chrono::ChSystem::DoAssembly ( int action )

Given the current time and state, attempt to satisfy all constraints, using a Newton-Raphson iteration loop.

Used iteratively in inverse kinematics. Action can be one of AssemblyLevel::POSITION, AssemblyLevel::VELOCITY, or AssemblyLevel::ACCELERATION (or a combination of these) Returns true if no errors and false if an error occurred (impossible assembly?)

◆ DoFrameDynamics()

bool chrono::ChSystem::DoFrameDynamics ( double end_time )

Performs integration until the m_endtime is exactly reached, but current time step may be automatically "retouched" to meet exactly the m_endtime after n steps.

Useful when you want to advance the simulation in a simulations (3d modeling software etc.) which needs updates of the screen at a fixed rate (ex.30th of second) while the integration must use more steps.

◆ DoFrameKinematics()

bool chrono::ChSystem::DoFrameKinematics ( double end_time )

Performs kinematics until the end time is exactly reached.

The current time step may be automatically adjusted to meet exactly the m_endtime after n steps.

◆ DoStaticLinear()

bool chrono::ChSystem::DoStaticLinear ( )

Solve the position of static equilibrium (and the reactions).

This is a one-step only approach that solves the linear equilibrium. Appropriate mostly for FEM problems with small deformations.

◆ DoStaticNonlinear() [1/2]

bool chrono::ChSystem::DoStaticNonlinear	(	int	nsteps = `10`,
		bool	verbose = `false`
	)

Solve the position of static equilibrium (and the reactions).

This function solves the equilibrium for the nonlinear problem (large displacements). This version uses a nonlinear static analysis solver with default parameters.

◆ DoStaticNonlinear() [2/2]

bool chrono::ChSystem::DoStaticNonlinear ( std::shared_ptr< ChStaticNonLinearAnalysis > analysis )

Solve the position of static equilibrium (and the reactions).

This function solves the equilibrium for the nonlinear problem (large displacements). This version uses the provided nonlinear static analysis solver.

◆ DoStaticRelaxing()

bool chrono::ChSystem::DoStaticRelaxing ( int nsteps = 10 )

Finds the position of static equilibrium (and the reactions) starting from the current position.

Since a truncated iterative method is used, you may need to call this method multiple times in case of large nonlinearities before coming to the precise static solution.

◆ DoStepDynamics()

int chrono::ChSystem::DoStepDynamics ( double step_size )

Advances the dynamical simulation for a single step, of length step_size.

This function is typically called many times in a loop in order to simulate up to a desired end time.

◆ DumpSystemMatrices()

void chrono::ChSystem::DumpSystemMatrices	(	bool	save_M,
		bool	save_K,
		bool	save_R,
		bool	save_Cq,
		const char *	path
	)

Dump the current M mass matrix, K damping matrix, R damping matrix, Cq constraint jacobian matrix (at the current configuration).

These can be later used for linearized motion, modal analysis, buckling analysis, etc. The name of the files will be [path]_M.dat [path]_K.dat [path]_R.dat [path]_Cq.dat Might throw ChException if file can't be saved.

◆ FlushBatch()

void chrono::ChSystem::FlushBatch ( )

inline

If some items are queued for addition in the assembly, using AddBatch(), this will effectively add them and clean the batch.

Called automatically at each Setup().

◆ ForceUpdate()

void chrono::ChSystem::ForceUpdate ( )

In normal usage, no system update is necessary at the beginning of a new dynamics step (since an update is performed at the end of a step).

However, this is not the case if external changes to the system are made. Most such changes are discovered automatically (addition/removal of items, input of mesh loads). For special cases, this function allows the user to trigger a system update at the beginning of the step immediately following this call.

◆ GetBodyAppliedForce()

ChVector chrono::ChSystem::GetBodyAppliedForce ( ChBody * body )

protectedvirtual

Return the resultant applied force on the specified body.

This resultant force includes all external applied loads acting on the body (from gravity, loads, springs, etc). However, this does not include any constraint forces. In particular, contact forces are not included if using the NSC formulation, but are included when using the SMC formulation.

Reimplemented in chrono::ChSystemMulticore.

◆ GetBodyAppliedTorque()

ChVector chrono::ChSystem::GetBodyAppliedTorque ( ChBody * body )

protectedvirtual

Return the resultant applied torque on the specified body.

This resultant torque includes all external applied loads acting on the body (from gravity, loads, springs, etc). However, this does not include any constraint forces. In particular, contact torques are not included if using the NSC formulation, but are included when using the SMC formulation.

Reimplemented in chrono::ChSystemMulticore.

◆ GetConstraintJacobianMatrix()

void chrono::ChSystem::GetConstraintJacobianMatrix ( ChSparseMatrix * Cq )

Compute the system-level constraint jacobian matrix, i.e.

the jacobian Cq=-dC/dq where C are constraints (the lower left part of the KKT matrix). This function has a small overhead, because it must assembly the sparse matrix -which is used only for the purpose of this function. fill this system damping matrix

virtual ChContactMethod chrono::ChSystem::GetContactMethod ( ) const

pure virtual

Return the contact method supported by this system.

◆ GetDampingMatrix()

void chrono::ChSystem::GetDampingMatrix ( ChSparseMatrix * R )

Compute the system-level damping matrix, i.e.

◆ GetMassMatrix()

void chrono::ChSystem::GetMassMatrix ( ChSparseMatrix * M )

Compute the system-level mass matrix.

This counter is reset at each timestep.

◆ GetStiffnessMatrix()

void chrono::ChSystem::GetStiffnessMatrix ( ChSparseMatrix * K )

Compute the system-level stiffness matrix, i.e.

the jacobian -dF/dq where F are stiff loads. Note that not all loads provide a jacobian, as this is optional in their implementation. This function has a small overhead, because it must assembly the sparse matrix -which is used only for the purpose of this function. fill this system stiffness matrix

◆ GetTimerLSsolve()

virtual double chrono::ChSystem::GetTimerLSsolve ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Return the time (in seconds) for the solver, within the time step.

Note that this time excludes any calls to the solver's Setup function.

Reimplemented in chrono::ChSystemMulticore.

◆ Reference_LM_byID()

void chrono::ChSystem::Reference_LM_byID ( )

Given inserted markers and links, restores the pointers of links to markers given the information about the marker IDs.

Will be made obsolete in future with new serialization systems.

◆ RegisterCustomCollisionCallback()

void chrono::ChSystem::RegisterCustomCollisionCallback ( std::shared_ptr< CustomCollisionCallback > callback )

inline

Specify a callback object to be invoked at each collision detection step.

Multiple such callback objects can be registered with a system. If present, their OnCustomCollision() method is invoked. Use this if you want that some specific callback function is executed at each collision detection step (ex. all the times that ComputeCollisions() is automatically called by the integration method). For example some other collision engine could add further contacts using this callback.

◆ SetCollisionSystem()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetCollisionSystem ( std::shared_ptr< collision::ChCollisionSystem > newcollsystem )

For higher performance (ex.

when GPU coprocessors are available) you can create your own custom collision engine (inherited from ChCollisionSystem) and plug it into the system using this function. Note: use only before you start adding colliding bodies to the system!

◆ SetDumpSolverMatrices()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetDumpSolverMatrices ( bool md )

inline

Set this to "true" to enable automatic saving of solver matrices at each time step, for debugging purposes.

Note that matrices will be saved in the working directory of the exe, with format 0001_01_H.dat 0002_01_H.dat (if the timestepper requires multiple solves, also 0001_01. 0001_02.. etc.) The matrices being saved are: dump_Z.dat has the assembled optimization matrix (Matlab sparse format) dump_rhs.dat has the assembled RHS dump_H.dat has usually H=M (mass), but could be also H=a*M+b*K+c*R or such. (Matlab sparse format) dump_Cq.dat has the jacobians (Matlab sparse format) dump_E.dat has the constr.compliance (Matlab sparse format) dump_f.dat has the applied loads dump_b.dat has the constraint rhs as passed to the solver in the problem

 | H -Cq'|*|q|- | f|= |0|

where l \(\in Y, c \in Ny\), normal cone to Y

◆ SetMaxiter()

When trying to keep constraints together, the iterative process is stopped if this max.number of iterations (or tolerance) is reached.

◆ SetMaxPenetrationRecoverySpeed()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetMaxPenetrationRecoverySpeed ( double mval )

inline

For the default stepper, you can limit the speed of exiting from penetration situations.

Usually set a positive value, about 0.1 .. 2 . (as exiting speed, in m/s)

◆ SetMinBounceSpeed()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetMinBounceSpeed ( double mval )

inline

For elastic collisions, with objects that have nonzero restitution coefficient: objects will rebounce only if their relative colliding speed is above this threshold.

Default 0.15 m/s. If this is too low, aliasing problems can happen with small high frequency rebounces, and settling to static stacking might be more difficult.

◆ SetNumThreads()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetNumThreads	(	int	num_threads_chrono,
		int	num_threads_collision = `0`,
		int	num_threads_eigen = `0`
	)

virtual

Set the number of OpenMP threads used by Chrono itself, Eigen, and the collision detection system.

  num_threads_chrono    - used in FEA (parallel evaluation of internal forces and Jacobians) and
                          in SCM deformable terrain calculations.
  num_threads_collision - used in parallelization of collision detection (if applicable).
                          If passing 0, then num_threads_collision = num_threads_chrono.
  num_threads_eigen     - used in the Eigen sparse direct solvers and a few linear algebra operations.
                          Note that Eigen enables multi-threaded execution only under certain size conditions.
                          See the Eigen documentation.
                          If passing 0, then num_threads_eigen = num_threads_chrono.
By default (if this function is not called), the following values are used:
  num_threads_chrono = omp_get_num_procs()
  num_threads_collision = 1
  num_threads_eigen = 1

Note that a derived class may ignore some or all of these settings.

Reimplemented in chrono::ChSystemMulticore.

◆ SetSolverForceTolerance()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetSolverForceTolerance ( double tolerance )

inline

Set a solver tolerance threshold at force level (default: not specified).

Specify this value only if solving the problem at velocity level (e.g. solving a DVI problem). If this tolerance is specified, it is multiplied by the current integration stepsize and overwrites the current solver tolerance. By default, this tolerance is invalid and hence the solver's own tolerance threshold is used.

◆ SetSolverMaxIterations()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetSolverMaxIterations ( int max_iters )

Set the maximum number of iterations, if using an iterative solver.

Deprecated:: Prefer using SetSolver and setting solver parameters directly.

◆ SetSolverTolerance()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetSolverTolerance ( double tolerance )

Set the solver tolerance threshold (used with iterative solvers only).

Note that the stopping criteria differs from solver to solver.

◆ SetSolverType()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetSolverType ( ChSolver::Type type )

Choose the solver type, to be used for the simultaneous solution of the constraints in dynamical simulations (as well as in kinematics, statics, etc.)

Suggested solver for speed, but lower precision: PSOR
Suggested solver for higher precision: BARZILAIBORWEIN or APGD
For problems that involve a stiffness matrix: GMRES, MINRES

Notes:

This function is a shortcut, internally equivalent to a call to SetSolver().
Only a subset of available Chrono solvers can be set through this mechanism.
Prefer explicitly creating a solver, setting solver parameters, and then attaching the solver with SetSolver.

Deprecated:: This function does not support all available Chrono solvers. Prefer using SetSolver.

◆ SetStep()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetStep ( double m_step )

inline

Sets the time step used for integration (dynamical simulation).

The lower this value, the more precise the simulation. Usually, values about 0.01 s are enough for simple simulations. It may be modified automatically by integration methods, if they support automatic time adaption.

◆ SetTimestepperType()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetTimestepperType ( ChTimestepper::Type type )

Set the method for time integration (time stepper type).

Suggested for fast dynamics with hard (NSC) contacts: EULER_IMPLICIT_LINEARIZED
Suggested for fast dynamics with hard (NSC) contacts and low inter-penetration: EULER_IMPLICIT_PROJECTED
Suggested for finite element smooth dynamics: HHT, EULER_IMPLICIT_LINEARIZED

Notes:

for more advanced customization, use SetTimestepper()
old methods ANITESCU and TASORA were replaced by EULER_IMPLICIT_LINEARIZED and EULER_IMPLICIT_PROJECTED, respectively

◆ Setup()

void chrono::ChSystem::Setup ( )

virtual

Counts the number of bodies and links.

Computes the offsets of object states in the global state. Assumes that offset_x, offset_w, and offset_L are already set as starting point for offsetting all the contained sub objects.

Reimplemented in chrono::ChSystemMulticoreSMC, and chrono::ChSystemMulticore.

◆ SetupInitial()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetupInitial ( )

protected

Initial system setup before analysis.

This function performs an initial system setup, once system construction is completed and before an analysis.

◆ SetUseSleeping()

void chrono::ChSystem::SetUseSleeping ( bool ms )

inline

Turn on this feature to let the system put to sleep the bodies whose motion has almost come to a rest.

This feature will allow faster simulation of large scenarios for real-time purposes, but it will affect the precision! This functionality can be turned off selectively for specific ChBodies.

◆ ShowHierarchy()

void chrono::ChSystem::ShowHierarchy	(	ChStreamOutAscii &	m_file,
		int	level = `0`
	)		const

inline

Write the hierarchy of contained bodies, markers, etc.

in ASCII readable form, mostly for debugging purposes. Level is the tab spacing at the left.

◆ StateIncrementX()

void chrono::ChSystem::StateIncrementX	(	ChState &	x_new,
		const ChState &	x,
		const ChStateDelta &	Dx
	)

overridevirtual

Perform x_new = x + dx, for x in Y = {x, dx/dt}.

It takes care of the fact that x has quaternions, dx has angular vel etc. NOTE: the system is not updated automatically after the state increment, so one might need to call StateScatter() if needed.

Parameters

x_new	resulting x_new = x + Dx
x	initial state x
Dx	state increment Dx

Reimplemented from chrono::ChIntegrableIIorder.

◆ StateSolveCorrection()

bool chrono::ChSystem::StateSolveCorrection	(	ChStateDelta &	Dv,
