chrono::fea::ChLoaderBeamWrenchDistributed Class Reference

Description

Distributed constant wrench.

Loader for a constant wrench (force+torque) distributed on a beam. An distributed wrench on the beam contains a "force per unit length" and a "torque per unit length"

◆ ComputeF()

virtual void chrono::fea::ChLoaderBeamWrenchDistributed::ComputeF ( double  U,
ChVectorDynamic<> &  F,
ChVectorDynamic<> *  state_x,
ChVectorDynamic<> *  state_w 
)
inlinevirtual

Evaluate F = F(u) for this line load.

The vector F is set to zero on entry. The function provided by derived classes is called by ComputeQ to perform integration over the domain.

Parameters
Uparametric coordinate in line
Fresult vector, size = field dim of loadable
state_xif != 0, update state (pos. part) to this, then evaluate F
state_wif != 0, update state (speed part) to this, then evaluate F

Implements chrono::ChLoaderU.
