Detailed Description

Defines a joint for purely rotational motion.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

UNIVERSALJOINT::UNIVERSALJOINT ( )

Initializes the joint.

The axes of rotation are each set to [0 0 0]. The inboard and outboard links are set to NULL.

References Ravelin::JOINT::_F, _h2, _s_dot, _u, Ravelin::JOINT::init_data(), num_dof(), and Ravelin::VECTOR3::pose.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void Ravelin::UNIVERSALJOINT::calc_constraint_jacobian ( bool  inboard,
MATRIXN Cq 
)
virtual

Computes the constraint Jacobian for this joint with respect to the given body.

Parameters
inboard'true' if the Jacobian is to be computed w.r.t. the inboard link; 'false' for the outboard
Cqa 6 x ndof matrix for the given body (on return)

Implements Ravelin::JOINT.

void UNIVERSALJOINT::calc_constraint_jacobian_dot ( bool  inboard,
MATRIXN Cq 
)
virtual

Computes the time derivative of the constraint jacobian with respect to a body.

TODO: implement this

Implements Ravelin::JOINT.

virtual void Ravelin::UNIVERSALJOINT::calc_constraint_jacobian_dot ( bool  inboard,
MATRIXN Cq 
)
virtual

Computes the time derivative of the constraint Jacobian for this joint with respect to the given body.

Parameters
inboard'true' if the Jacobian is to be computed w.r.t. the inboard link; 'false' for the outboard
Cqa 6 x ndof matrix for the given body (on return)

Implements Ravelin::JOINT.

virtual void Ravelin::UNIVERSALJOINT::evaluate_constraints ( REAL  C[])
virtual

Evaluates the constraint equations for this joint.

When the joint constraints are exactly satisfied, the result will be the zero vector.

Parameters
Ca vector of size num_constraint_eqns(); contains the evaluation (on return)
Note
only used by maximal-coordinate articulated bodies

Implements Ravelin::JOINT.

virtual boost::shared_ptr<const POSE3> Ravelin::UNIVERSALJOINT::get_induced_pose ( )
virtual

Abstract method to get the local transform for this joint.

The local transform for the joint transforms the coordinate frame attached to the joint center and aligned with the inner link frame.

Implements Ravelin::JOINT.

const vector< SVELOCITY > & UNIVERSALJOINT::get_spatial_axes ( )
virtual

Gets the spatial axes for this joint.

Note
these spatial axes are not constant, unlike many joints.

Reimplemented from Ravelin::JOINT.

References Ravelin::JOINT::_q_tare, Ravelin::JOINT::_s, _u, Ravelin::JOINT::get_pose(), and Ravelin::JOINT::q.

virtual const std::vector<SVELOCITY>& Ravelin::UNIVERSALJOINT::get_spatial_axes_dot ( )
virtual

Abstract method to get the spatial axes derivatives for this joint.

Only applicable for reduced-coordinate articulated bodies

Implements Ravelin::JOINT.

const vector< SVELOCITY > & UNIVERSALJOINT::get_spatial_axes_dot ( )
virtual

Gets the derivative of the spatial-axis.

Note
these spatial axes are not constant, unlike many joints.

Implements Ravelin::JOINT.

References Ravelin::JOINT::_q_tare, _s_dot, _u, Ravelin::JOINT::get_pose(), Ravelin::JOINT::q, and Ravelin::JOINT::qd.

void UNIVERSALJOINT::set_axis ( const VECTOR3 axis,
Axis  a 
)

Sets an axis of rotation of this joint (MUST BE CALLED AFTER set_location(.))

The local axis for this joint does not take the orientation of the inboard link into account; thus, if the orientation of the inboard link changes, then the local axis remains constant.

Parameters
axisa unit vector
