public class PlanarTranslationJoint
extends JointBase
implements CopyableComponent

Implements a 2 DOF planer joint, in which the origin of frame C is constrained to lie in the x-y plane of frame D and rotation is not permitted. The x and y displacements of C are given by the coordinates x and y.

The x and y values are available as properties which can be read and also, under appropriate circumstances, set. Setting these values causes an adjustment in the positions of one or both bodies connected to this joint, along with adjacent bodies connected to them, with preference given to bodies that are not attached to ``ground''. If this is done during simulation, and particularly if one or both of the bodies connected to this joint are moving dynamically, the results will be unpredictable and will likely conflict with the simulation.

Constructor Detail

PlanarTranslationJoint

public PlanarTranslationJoint()

Creates a PlanarTranslationJoint which is not attached to any bodies. It can subsequently be connected using one of the setBodies methods.

PlanarTranslationJoint

public PlanarTranslationJoint(RigidBody bodyA,
                              RigidTransform3d TCA,
                              RigidBody bodyB,
                              RigidTransform3d TDB)

Creates a PlanarTranslationJoint connecting two rigid bodies, bodyA and bodyB. If A and B describe the coordinate frames of bodyA and bodyB, then TCA and TDB give the (fixed) transforms from the joint's C and D frames to A and B, respectively. Since C and D are specified independently, the joint transform TCD may not necessarily be initialized to the identity.

Specifying bodyB as null will cause bodyA to be connected to ground, with TDB then being the same as TDW.

Parameters:

bodyA - rigid body A

TCA - transform from joint frame C to body frame A

bodyB - rigid body B (or null)

TDB - transform from joint frame D to body frame B

PlanarTranslationJoint

public PlanarTranslationJoint(ConnectableBody bodyA,
                              ConnectableBody bodyB,
                              RigidTransform3d TCW,
                              RigidTransform3d TDW)

Creates a PlanarTranslationJoint connecting two connectable bodies, bodyA and bodyB. The joint frames C and D are located independently with respect to world coordinates by TCW and TDW.

Specifying bodyB as null will cause bodyA to be connected to ground.

Parameters:

bodyA - body A

bodyB - body B (or null)

TCW - initial transform from joint frame C to world

TDW - initial transform from joint frame D to world

PlanarTranslationJoint

public PlanarTranslationJoint(ConnectableBody bodyA,
                              ConnectableBody bodyB,
                              RigidTransform3d TDW)

Creates a PlanarTranslationJoint connecting two connectable bodies, bodyA and bodyB. The joint frames D and C are assumed to be initially coincident, so that x and y will have initial values of 0. D (and C) is located by TDW, which gives the transform from D to world coordinates.

Parameters:

bodyA - body A

bodyB - body B

TDW - initial transform from joint frames D and C to world

PlanarTranslationJoint

public PlanarTranslationJoint(ConnectableBody bodyA,
                              RigidTransform3d TDW)

Creates a PlanarTranslationJoint connecting a single connectable body, bodyA, to ground. The joint frames D and C are assumed to be initially coincidentD, so that x and y will have initial values of 0. D (and C) is located by TDW, which gives the transform from D to world coordinates.

Parameters:

bodyA - body A

TDW - initial transform from joint frames D and C to world

PlanarTranslationJoint

public PlanarTranslationJoint(RigidBody bodyA,
                              ConnectableBody bodyB,
                              Point3d originD,
                              Vector3d zaxis)

Creates a PlanarTranslationJoint connecting two connectable bodies, bodyA and bodyB. The joint frames D and C are assumed to be initially coincident, so that x and y will have initial values of 0. D (and C) is located (with respect to world) so that its origin is at pd and its z axis in the direction of zaxis.

Specifying bodyB as null will cause bodyA to be connected to ground.

Parameters:

bodyA - body A

bodyB - body B, or null if bodyA is connected to ground.

originD - origin of frame D (world coordinates)

zaxis - direction of frame D's z axis (world coordinates)

public double getX()

Queries the x range limits for this joint. See setXRange(DoubleInterval) for more details.

Returns:

x range limits for this joint

setX

public void setX(double x)

Sets this joint's x value. This describes the displacement of frame C along the x axis of frame D. See this class's Javadoc header for a discussion of what happens when this value is set.

Parameters:

x - new x value

setYRange

public void setYRange(DoubleInterval range)

Sets the y range limits for this joint. The default range is [-inf, inf], which implies no limits. If y travels beyond these limits during dynamic simulation, unilateral constraints will be activated to enforce them.

Parameters:

range - y range limits for this joint

setYRange

                         Vector3d pmax)

Description copied from interface: IsRenderable

Update the minimum and maximum points for this object. In an x-y-z coordinate system with x directed to the right and y directed upwards, the minimum and maximum points can be thought of as defining the left-lower-far and right-upper-near corners of a bounding cube. This method should only reduce the elements of the minimum point and increase the elements of the maximum point, since it may be used as part of an iteration to determine the bounding cube for several different objects.

Specified by:

updateBounds in interface IsRenderable

updateBounds in class BodyConnector

Parameters:

pmin - minimum point

pmax - maximum point

render

Render this object using the functionality of the supplied Renderer.

Specified by:

render in interface IsRenderable

Overrides:

render in class BodyConnector

Parameters:

renderer - provides the functionality used to perform the rendering.

flags - flags that may be used to control different aspects of the rendering. Flags are defined in Renderer and currently include Renderer.HIGHLIGHT and Renderer.SORT_FACES.
