Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ChPathFollowerDriverStanley() [1/2]

chrono::vehicle::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley	(	ChVehicle &	vehicle,
		std::shared_ptr< ChBezierCurve >	path,
		const std::string &	path_name,
		double	target_speed,
		bool	isClosedPath = `false`,
		double	maxWheelTurnAngle = `0.0`
	)

Construct using the specified Bezier curve.

Parameters

vehicle	associated vehicle
path	Bezier curve with target path
path_name	name of the path curve
target_speed	constant target speed
isClosedPath	Treat the path as a closed loop
maxWheelTurnAngle	needed for wheeled vehicles, use default for tracked vehicles

◆ ChPathFollowerDriverStanley() [2/2]

chrono::vehicle::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley	(	ChVehicle &	vehicle,
		const std::string &	steering_filename,
		const std::string &	speed_filename,
		std::shared_ptr< ChBezierCurve >	path,
		const std::string &	path_name,
		double	target_speed,
		bool	isClosedPath = `false`,
		double	maxWheelTurnAngle = `0.0`
	)

Construct using JSON specification files.

The two files must contain specification for the path-follower steering controller and the constant-speed controller, respectively.

Parameters

vehicle	associated vehicle
steering_filename	JSON file with steering controller specification
speed_filename	JSON file with speed controller specification
path	Bezier curve with target path
path_name	name of the path curve
target_speed	constant target speed
isClosedPath	Treat the path as a closed loop
maxWheelTurnAngle	needed for wheeled vehicles, use default for tracked vehicles

Member Function Documentation

◆ SetThresholdThrottle()

void chrono::vehicle::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley::SetThresholdThrottle ( double val )

inline

Specify the throttle value below which braking is enabled.

If the vehicle is moving faster than the set speed, the controller attempts to reduce speed either by reducing the throttle input (if the current throttle input is above the threshold value) or by applying brakes (otherwise).
