PlanarMechanics.Revolute
Revolute joint: allows rotation about the z-axis while rigidly connecting positions.
This component extends from PartialTwoFrames This component extends from MultibodyComponents.Renderable
Usage
MultibodyComponents.PlanarMechanics.Revolute(render=true, color=[1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0], specular_coefficient=0.7, radius=0.1, cylinder_length=0.1, z_position=0)
Parameters:
| Name | Description | Units | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|
render | – | true | |
color | – | [1, 0, 0, 1] | |
specular_coefficient | – | 0.7 | |
radius | Radius of the revolute cylinder in animations | – | 0.1 |
cylinder_length | Length of the revolute cylinder in animations | – | 0.1 |
z_position | z-position of the revolute cylinder center in animations | – | 0 |
Connectors
frame_a- 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)
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)
flange_a- This connector represents a rotational spline with angle and torque as the potential and flow variables, respectively. (Spline)
Variables
| Name | Description | Units |
|---|---|---|
phi | Relative rotation angle from frame_a to frame_b | rad |
w | angular velocity | rad/s |
alpha | angular acceleration | rad/s2 |
tau | torque | N.m |
