PlanarMechanics.PrescribedVelocity

Prescribed velocity of frame_b via input connectors.

The absolute velocity of frame_b is driven by the two real inputs v_x, v_y, resolved in the planar world frame. Position is obtained by integrating the velocity inputs starting from r_start.

When fixed_orientation is true, the rotation angle is locked to zero. When false, no orientation constraint is imposed and no torque is applied — the orientation must be determined by connected components.

Usage

MultibodyComponents.PlanarMechanics.PrescribedVelocity(r_start=[0, 0])

Parameters:

NameDescriptionUnitsDefault value
fixed_orientationtrue
statePriority2
r_startInitial position vector from world frame to frame_b, resolved in world framem[0, 0]

Connectors

  • frame_b - Coordinate system (2-dim.) fixed to the component with one cut-force and cut-torque.

All variables are resolved in the planar world frame. (Frame2D)

  • v_x - This connector represents a real signal as an input to a component (RealInput)

  • v_y - This connector represents a real signal as an input to a component (RealInput)

Variables

NameDescriptionUnits
rPosition vector from world frame to frame_b, resolved in world framem
vAbsolute velocity of frame_b, resolved in world framem/s
aAbsolute acceleration of frame_b, resolved in world framem/s2

Prescribed velocity of `frame_b` via input connectors.

The absolute velocity of `frame_b` is driven by the two real inputs `v_x`, `v_y`,
resolved in the planar world frame. Position is obtained by integrating the
velocity inputs starting from `r_start`.

When `fixed_orientation` is true, the rotation angle is locked to zero.
When false, no orientation constraint is imposed and no torque is applied —
