Construction | |
Methods in this section refer both to constructors, and to methods that can be used to set or change construction (Topology-stage) parameters; these specify the values assigned by default to the corresponding state variables. Note:
The default parameters can be overridden in any given State, and modified without affecting Topology; see the "Runtime Changes" section below. | |

This constraint consists of one constraint equation that enforces a constant distance between a point on one body and a point on another body.
This is like connecting them by a rigid, massless rod with ball joints at either end. The constraint is enforced by a force acting along the rod with opposite signs at either end. When positive, this represents tension in the rod pulling the points together; when negative it represents compression keeping the points separated.

Modify the location of the point P on the first body, mobod1, in this state by providing a new vector p_B1P giving the location of P measured from body 1's origin, and expressed in the B1 frame.
This overrides the defaultPointOnBody1 in the given state, whose Stage::Position is invalidated.
Modify the location of the point Q on the second body, mobod2, in this state by providing a new vector p_B2Q giving the location of Q measured from body 2's origin, and expressed in the B2 frame.
This overrides the defaultPointOnBody2 in the given state, whose Stage::Position is invalidated.
Modify the rod length (distance) in this state.
This overrides the defaultRodLength in the given state, whose Stage::Position is invalidated.
Return the position on body 1 of the rod end point P on the first body, mobod1, as currently set in the given state.
The value is returned as a vector p_B1P from body 1's origin to the point P, expressed in the B1 frame.
Return the position on body 2 of the rod end point Q attached to the second body, mobod2, as currently set in the given state.
The value is returned as a vector p_B2Q from body 2's origin to the point Q, expressed in the B2 frame.
Return the rod length (distance) as currently set in the given state.
This is the signed violation of the position constraint, in length units.
It is positive when the two points are separated by more than the required distance; negative when closer than the required distance. The given state must have already been realized through Stage::Position.
This is the time derivative of the value returned by getPositionError(); in this case it is the relative velocity of the two points projected onto the direction of the line between them.
This is the time derivative of the value returned by getVelocityError().
This is the Lagrange multiplier required to enforce the constraint equation generated here.
For this Constraint it has units of force, but recall that the sign convention for multipliers is opposite that of forces. Use the other provided methods if you want to get meaningful forces. The given state must already be realized to Stage::Acceleration.
This returns the tension in the Rod being used to enforce the constraint.
It is positive if the Rod is in tension, negative if in compression. The result is zero if the constraint is currently disabled. The given state must already be realized to Stage::Acceleration.
Return the instantaneous orientation of the Rod in the Ground frame.
This is a unit vector along the direction from point1 (on body 1) to point2 (on body 2), unless the points overlap in which case it is an arbitrary direction. This method calculates a valid value even if this constraint is currently disabled. The given state must already be realized to Stage::Position.
Calculate the amount by which this constraint is violated.
It is positive when the distance between the points is greater than the specified Rod length, negative when less. If the constraint is currently enabled then this returns the same value as getPositionError(); however, this method calculates a valid value even if the constraint is currently disabled. The given state must be realized to Stage::Position.
