Member Function Documentation

◆ EnableLocking()

void chrono::vehicle::ChBrake::EnableLocking ( bool  val)
inline

Enable/disable ability of locking (default: false).

Note that a derived class may or may not support this option.

◆ Initialize()

virtual void chrono::vehicle::ChBrake::Initialize ( std::shared_ptr< ChChassis chassis,
std::shared_ptr< ChSuspension suspension,
VehicleSide  side 
)
pure virtual

Initialize the brake by associating it to an existing suspension subsystem.

Parameters
chassisassociated chassis subsystem
suspensionassociated suspension subsystem
sidebrake mounted on left/right side

Implemented in chrono::vehicle::ChBrakeSimple, and chrono::vehicle::ChBrakeShafts.

◆ Synchronize()

virtual void chrono::vehicle::ChBrake::Synchronize ( double  modulation)
pure virtual

Update the brake subsystem: set the brake modulation.

The input value is in the range [0,1].

  modulation = 0 indicates no braking
  modulation = 1 indicates that the subsystem should provide maximum braking torque

Implemented in chrono::vehicle::ChBrakeSimple, and chrono::vehicle::ChBrakeShafts.
