Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ChTrackShoeBandBushing()

chrono::vehicle::ChTrackShoeBandBushing::ChTrackShoeBandBushing ( const std::string & name )

Parameters

[in] name name of the subsystem

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetTension()

ChVector chrono::vehicle::ChTrackShoeBandBushing::GetTension ( ) const

overridevirtual

Get track tension at this track shoe.

Return is the force due to the connections of this track shoe, expressed in the track shoe reference frame.

Implements chrono::vehicle::ChTrackShoe.

◆ Initialize()

void chrono::vehicle::ChTrackShoeBandBushing::Initialize	(	std::shared_ptr< ChBodyAuxRef >	chassis,
		const ChVector<> &	location,
		const ChQuaternion<> &	rotation
	)

overridevirtual

Initialize this track shoe subsystem.

The track shoe is created within the specified system and initialized at the specified location and orientation (expressed in the global frame). This version initializes the bodies of a CB rigid-link track shoe such that the center of the track shoe subsystem is at the specified location and all bodies have the specified orientation.

Parameters

[in]	chassis	chassis body
[in]	location	location relative to the chassis frame
[in]	rotation	orientation relative to the chassis frame

Reimplemented from chrono::vehicle::ChTrackShoeBand.

◆ InitializeInertiaProperties()

void chrono::vehicle::ChTrackShoeBandBushing::InitializeInertiaProperties ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Initialize subsystem inertia properties.

Derived classes must override this function and set the subsystem mass (m_mass) and, if constant, the subsystem COM frame and its inertia tensor. This function is called during initialization of the vehicle system.

Implements chrono::vehicle::ChPart.

◆ UpdateInertiaProperties()

void chrono::vehicle::ChTrackShoeBandBushing::UpdateInertiaProperties ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Update subsystem inertia properties.

Derived classes must override this function and set the global subsystem transform (m_xform) and, unless constant, the subsystem COM frame (m_com) and its inertia tensor (m_inertia). Calculate the current inertia properties and global frame of this subsystem. This function is called every time the state of the vehicle system is advanced in time.

Implements chrono::vehicle::ChPart.
