Member Function Documentation

◆ ComputeForce()

void chrono::ChLoadXYZnodeBodySpring::ComputeForce	(	const ChFrameMoving<> &	rel_AB,
		ChVector<> &	loc_force
	)

overridevirtual

Compute the force on the nodeA, in local coordsystem of SetApplicationFrameB (the auxiliary frame attached to body) given relative position of nodeA respect to B.

Compute the force on the node, in absolute coordsystem, given position of node as abs_pos.

Implements chrono::ChLoadXYZnodeBody.

◆ IsStiff()

virtual bool chrono::ChLoadXYZnodeBodySpring::IsStiff ( )

inlineoverrideprotectedvirtual

Report if this is load is stiff.

If so, InjectKRMmatrices will provide the jacobians of the load.

Implements chrono::ChLoadBase.

◆ SetStiff()

void chrono::ChLoadXYZnodeBodySpring::SetStiff ( bool ms )

inline

Use this to enable the stiff force computation (i.e.

it enables the automated computation of the jacobian by numerical differentiation to elp the convergence of implicit integrators, but adding CPU overhead).
