Member Function Documentation

◆ Initialize()

virtual void chrono::vehicle::ChDrivelineWV::Initialize ( std::shared_ptr< ChChassis chassis,
const ChAxleList axles,
const std::vector< int > &  driven_axles 
)
pure virtual

Initialize the driveline subsystem.

This function connects this driveline subsystem to the specified axle subsystems.

Parameters
chassisassociated chassis subsystem
axleslist of all vehicle axle subsystems
driven_axlesindexes of the driven vehicle axles

Implemented in chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline8WD, chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline6WD, chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline4WD, chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline2WD, chrono::vehicle::ChSimpleDrivelineXWD, chrono::vehicle::ChSimpleDriveline, chrono::vehicle::gator::Gator_SimpleDriveline, and chrono::vehicle::generic::Generic_SimpleDriveline.

◆ LockAxleDifferential()

void chrono::vehicle::ChDrivelineWV::LockAxleDifferential ( int  axle,
bool  lock 
)
virtual

Lock/unlock the differential on the specified axle.

By convention, axles are counted front to back, starting with index 0 for the front-most axle.

Reimplemented in chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline8WD, chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline6WD, chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline2WD, and chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline4WD.

◆ LockCentralDifferential()

void chrono::vehicle::ChDrivelineWV::LockCentralDifferential ( int  which,
bool  lock 
)
virtual

Lock/unlock the specified central differential.

By convention, central differentials are counted from front to back, starting with index 0.

Reimplemented in chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline8WD, chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline6WD, chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline4WD, and chrono::vehicle::ChShaftsDriveline2WD.

◆ Synchronize()

void chrono::vehicle::ChDrivelineWV::Synchronize ( double  time,
const DriverInputs driver_inputs,
double  torque 
)
virtual

Update the driveline subsystem.

The motor torque represents the input to the driveline subsystem from the powertrain system. The default implementation applies this torque to the driveline's driveshaft.

Parameters
[in]timecurrent time
[in]driver_inputscurrent driver inputs
[in]torquemotor torque

Reimplemented in chrono::vehicle::ChSimpleDrivelineXWD, chrono::vehicle::ChSimpleDriveline, chrono::vehicle::generic::Generic_SimpleDriveline, and chrono::vehicle::gator::Gator_SimpleDriveline.
