Member Function Documentation

◆ GetLocation()

const ChVector3d& chrono::vehicle::ChSubchassis::GetLocation ( ) const
inline

Get the location of the subchassis relative to the chassis reference frame.

The subchassis reference frame is always aligned with the chassis reference frame.

◆ Initialize()

void chrono::vehicle::ChSubchassis::Initialize ( std::shared_ptr< ChChassis chassis,
const ChVector3d location 
)
virtual

Initialize this subchassis subsystem.

The subchassis is initialized by attaching it to the specified chassis at the specified location (with respect to and expressed in the reference frame of the chassis). It is assumed that the subchassis reference frame is always aligned with the chassis reference frame.

Parameters
[in]chassisassociated chassis
[in]locationlocation relative to the chassis frame

Reimplemented in chrono::vehicle::ChBalancer.
