chrono::fea::ChLoadNodeXYZRotBody Class Referenceabstract

Description

Base class for loads representing a concentrated wrench (force & torque) acting between a ChNodeFEAxyzrot and a ChBody The force & torque is applied between two local references attached to the two nodes, loc_application_A and loc_application_B, not necessarily centered in the respective nodes.

Users should inherit from this and implement a custom ComputeForceTorque(), this is enough to have the load working. Note: there are already some predefined examples, ie. children classes with common concrete implementations, such as ChLoadNodeXYZRotBodyBushingSpherical ChLoadNodeXYZRotBodyBushingMate, etc.
