Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class drake::multibody::BallRpyJoint< T >

This Joint allows two bodies to rotate freely relative to one another.

That is, given a frame F attached to the parent body P and a frame M attached to the child body B (see the Joint class's documentation), this Joint allows frame M to rotate freely with respect to F, while the origins, Mo and Fo, of frames M and F respectively remain coincident. The orientation of M relative to F is parameterized with space x-y-z Euler angles.

Template Parameters

T	The scalar type, which must be one of the default scalars.

BallRpyJoint	(	const std::string &	name,
		const Frame< T > &	frame_on_parent,
		const Frame< T > &	frame_on_child,
		double	damping = `0`
	)

Constructor to create a ball rpy joint between two bodies so that frame F attached to the parent body P and frame M attached to the child body B rotate freely relative to one another.

See this class's documentation for further details on the definition of these frames, get_angles() for an explanation of the angles defining orientation, and get_angular_velocity() for an explanation of the generalized velocities. This constructor signature creates a joint with no joint limits, i.e. the joint position, velocity and acceleration limits are the pair (-∞, ∞). These can be set using the Joint methods set_position_limits(), set_velocity_limits() and set_acceleration_limits(). The first three arguments to this constructor are those of the Joint class constructor. See the Joint class's documentation for details. The additional parameters are:

Parameters

[in] damping Viscous damping coefficient, in N⋅m⋅s, used to model losses within the joint. See documentation of default_damping() for details on modelling of the damping torque.

Exceptions

std::exception if damping is negative.

Member Function Documentation

◆ default_damping()

double default_damping ( ) const

Returns this joint's default damping constant in N⋅m⋅s.

The damping torque (in N⋅m) is modeled as τ = -damping⋅ω, i.e. opposing motion, with ω the angular velocity of frame M in F (see get_angular_velocity()) and τ the torque on child body B (to which M is rigidly attached).

◆ DoAddInDamping()

void DoAddInDamping	(	const systems::Context< T > &	context,
		MultibodyForces< T > *	forces
	)		const

overrideprotectedvirtual

Joint<T> override called through public NVI, Joint::AddInDamping().

Therefore arguments were already checked to be valid. This method adds into forces a dissipative torque according to the viscous law τ = -d⋅ω, with d the damping coefficient (see default_damping()).

Reimplemented from Joint< T >.

◆ DoAddInOneForce()

void DoAddInOneForce	(	const systems::Context< T > &	,
		int	,
		const T &	,
		MultibodyForces< T > *
	)		const

overrideprotectedvirtual

Joint<T> override called through public NVI, Joint::AddInForce().

Adding forces per-dof makes no physical sense. Therefore, this method throws an exception if invoked.

Implements Joint< T >.

◆ get_angles()

Vector3<T> get_angles ( const Context< T > & context ) const

Gets the rotation angles of this joint from context.

The orientation R_FM of the child frame M in parent frame F is parameterized with space x-y-z Euler angles (also known as extrinsic angles). That is, the angles θr, θp, θy, correspond to a sequence of rotations about the x̂, ŷ, ẑ axes of parent frame F, respectively. Mathematically, rotation R_FM is given in terms of angles θr, θp, θy by:

  R_FM(q) = Rz(θy) * Ry(θp) * Rx(θr)

where Rx(θ), Ry(θ) and Rz(θ) correspond to the elemental rotations in amount of θ about the x, y and z axes respectively. Zero θr, θp, θy angles corresponds to frames F and M being coincident. Angles θr, θp, θy are defined to be positive according to the right-hand-rule with the thumb aligned in the direction of their respective axes.

Note: Space x-y-z angles (extrinsic) are equivalent to Body z-y-x angles (intrinsic).; This particular choice of angles θr, θp, θy for this joint are many times referred to as the roll, pitch and yaw angles by many dynamicists. They are also known as the Tait-Bryan angles or Cardan angles.

Parameters

[in] context The context of the model this joint belongs to.

Returns: The angle coordinates of this joint stored in the context ordered as θr, θp, θy.

◆ get_angular_velocity()

Vector3<T> get_angular_velocity ( const systems::Context< T > & context ) const

Retrieves from context the angular velocity w_FM of the child frame M in the parent frame F, expressed in F.

Parameters

[in] context The context of the model this joint belongs to.

Return values

w_FM	A vector in ℝ³ with the angular velocity of the child frame M in the parent frame F, expressed in F. Refer to this class's documentation for further details and definitions of these frames.

◆ get_default_angles()
