virtual ChContactable::eChContactableType	GetContactableType () const override
	This must return the proper eChContactableType enum, for allowing a faster collision dispatcher in ChContactContainer classes (this enum will be used instead of slow dynamic_cast<> to infer the type of ChContactable, if possible)

virtual ChVariables *	GetVariables1 () override
	Access variables.

virtual bool	IsContactActive () override
	Tell if the object must be considered in collision detection.

virtual int	GetContactableNumCoordsPosLevel () override
	Get the number of DOFs affected by this object (position part).

	Get the absolute speed of point abs_point if attached to the surface.

virtual ChFrame	GetCollisionModelFrame () override
	Return the frame of the associated collision model relative to the contactable object.

◆ ComputeJacobianForContactPart()

void chrono::fea::ChContactNodeXYZ::ComputeJacobianForContactPart	(	const ChVector3d &	abs_point,
		ChMatrix33<> &	contact_plane,
		type_constraint_tuple &	jacobian_tuple_N,
		type_constraint_tuple &	jacobian_tuple_U,
		type_constraint_tuple &	jacobian_tuple_V,
		bool	second
	)

overridevirtual

Compute the jacobian(s) part(s) for this contactable item.

For example, if the contactable is a ChBody, this should update the corresponding 1x6 jacobian.

◆ ContactableIncrementState()

virtual void chrono::fea::ChContactNodeXYZ::ContactableIncrementState	(	const ChState &	x,
		const ChStateDelta &	dw,
		ChState &	x_new
	)

inlineoverridevirtual

Increment the provided state of this object by the given state-delta increment.

Compute: x_new = x + dw.

Implements chrono::ChContactable.

◆ ContactComputeQ()

virtual void chrono::fea::ChContactNodeXYZ::ContactComputeQ	(	const ChVector3d &	F,
		const ChVector3d &	T,
		const ChVector3d &	point,
		const ChState &	state_x,
		ChVectorDynamic<> &	Q,
		int	offset
	)

inlineoverridevirtual

Compute a contiguous vector of generalized forces Q from a given force & torque at the given point.

Used for computing stiffness matrix (square force jacobian) by backward differentiation. The force and its application point are specified in the global frame. Each object must set the entries in Q corresponding to its variables, starting at the specified offset. If needed, the object states must be extracted from the provided state position.

Implements chrono::ChContactable.

◆ GetContactPointSpeed()

virtual ChVector3d chrono::fea::ChContactNodeXYZ::GetContactPointSpeed	(	const ChVector3d &	loc_point,
		const ChState &	state_x,
		const ChStateDelta &	state_w
	)

inlineoverridevirtual

Get the absolute speed of a local point attached to the contactable.

The given point is assumed to be expressed in the local frame of this object. This function must use the provided states.

Implements chrono::ChContactable.
