Member Function Documentation

void chrono::ChBoundary::AddPlane	(	const ChFrame<> &	frame,
		const ChVector2<> &	lengths
	)

Add a collision plane with finite extent and return the plane ID.

The plane normal is in the Z-direction of the given frame.

Parameters

frame	plane reference frame, relative to associated body
lengths	X-Y extent

void chrono::ChBoundary::AddVisualization ( double thickness )

Add visualization for all existing planes.

Parameters

thickness visualization thickness

void chrono::ChBoundary::AddVisualization	(	size_t	id,
		double	thickness
	)

Add visualization for the specified plane.

Parameters

id	plane indes
thickness	visualization thickness

void chrono::ChBoundary::Update ( )

Update all collision planes.

This function should be called if the position of the associated body is modified.

void chrono::ChBoundary::UpdatePlane	(	size_t	id,
		const ChFrame<> &	frame
	)

Override the position of the specified collision plane.

Parameters

id	plane index
frame	plane reference frame, relative to associated body

void chrono::ChBoundary::UpdatePlane	(	size_t	id,
		const ChVector2<> &	lengths
	)

Override the X-Y extent of the specified collision plane.

Parameters

id	plane index
lengths	X-Y extent
