Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ChSprocketDoublePin()

chrono::vehicle::ChSprocketDoublePin::ChSprocketDoublePin ( const std::string &  name)
Parameters
[in]namename of the subsystem

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetCollisionCallback()

std::shared_ptr< ChSystem::CustomCollisionCallback > chrono::vehicle::ChSprocketDoublePin::GetCollisionCallback ( ChTrackAssembly track)
overridevirtual

Return the custom collision callback object.

Parameters
[in]trackpointer to containing track assembly

Implements chrono::vehicle::ChSprocket.

◆ GetProfile()

std::shared_ptr< geometry::ChLinePath > chrono::vehicle::ChSprocketDoublePin::GetProfile ( ) const
overridevirtual

Return the 2D gear profile.

The gear profile, a ChLinePath geometric object, is made up of an arbitrary number of sub-paths of type ChLineArc or ChLineSegment sub-lines. These must be added in clockwise order, and the end of sub-path i must be coincident with beginning of sub-path i+1.

Implements chrono::vehicle::ChSprocket.
