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,
		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
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,
		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
maxWheelTurnAngle	needed for wheeled vehicles, use default for tracked vehicles
