Detailed Description

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

A class representing an element (subcomponent) of a MultibodyPlant or (internally) a MultibodyTree.

Examples of multibody elements are bodies, joints, force elements, and actuators. After a Finalize() call, multibody elements get assigned a type-specific index that uniquely identifies them. By convention, every subclass of MultibodyElement provides an index() member function that returns the assigned index, e.g.,

/** Returns this element's unique index. */

BodyIndex index() const { return this->template index_impl<BodyIndex>(); }

Template Parameters

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

#include <drake/multibody/tree/multibody_tree_system.h>

Member Function Documentation

◆ DeclareAbstractParameter()

systems::AbstractParameterIndex DeclareAbstractParameter	(	internal::MultibodyTreeSystem< T > *	tree_system,
		const AbstractValue &	model_value
	)

protected

To be used by MultibodyElement-derived objects when declaring parameters in their implementation of DoDeclareParameters().

For an example, see Joint::DoDeclareParameters().

◆ DeclareNumericParameter()

systems::NumericParameterIndex DeclareNumericParameter	(	internal::MultibodyTreeSystem< T > *	tree_system,
		const systems::BasicVector< T > &	model_vector
	)

protected

To be used by MultibodyElement-derived objects when declaring parameters in their implementation of DoDeclareParameters().

For an example, see RigidBody::DoDeclareParameters().

◆ DeclareParameters()

void DeclareParameters ( internal::MultibodyTreeSystem< T > * tree_system )

Declares MultibodyTreeSystem Parameters at MultibodyTreeSystem::Finalize() time.

NVI to the virtual method DoDeclareParameters().

Parameters

[in] tree_system A mutable copy of the parent MultibodyTreeSystem.

Precondition: 'tree_system' must be the same as the parent tree system (what's returned from GetParentTreeSystem()).

◆ DoDeclareParameters()

virtual void DoDeclareParameters ( internal::MultibodyTreeSystem< T > * )

protectedvirtual

Implementation of the NVI DeclareParameters().

MultibodyElement-derived objects may override to declare their specific parameters.

◆ DoSetDefaultParameters()

virtual void DoSetDefaultParameters ( systems::Parameters< T > * ) const

protectedvirtual

Implementation of the NVI SetDefaultParameters().

MultibodyElement-derived objects may override to set default values of their specific parameters.

◆ DoSetTopology()

virtual void DoSetTopology ( const internal::MultibodyTreeTopology & tree )

protectedpure virtual

Implementation of the NVI SetTopology().

For advanced use only for developers implementing new MultibodyTree components.

Implemented in Joint< T >.

◆ get_parent_tree()

const internal::MultibodyTree<T>& get_parent_tree ( ) const

protected

Returns a constant reference to the parent MultibodyTree that owns this element.

◆ GetParentPlant()

const MultibodyPlantDeferred& GetParentPlant ( ) const

Returns the MultibodyPlant that owns this MultibodyElement.

Note: You can only invoke this method if you have a definition of MultibodyPlant available. That is, you must include drake/multibody/plant/multibody_plant.h in the translation unit that invokes this method; multibody_element.h cannot do that for you.

Exceptions

std::exception if there is no MultibodyPlant owner.

◆ GetParentTreeSystem()

const internal::MultibodyTreeSystem<T>& GetParentTreeSystem ( ) const

protected

Returns a constant reference to the parent MultibodyTreeSystem that owns the parent MultibodyTree that owns this element.

◆ index_impl()

ElementIndexType index_impl ( ) const

protected

Returns this element's unique index.

◆ model_instance()

ModelInstanceIndex model_instance ( ) const

Returns the ModelInstanceIndex of the model instance to which this element belongs.

◆ operator=() [1/2]

MultibodyElement& operator= ( MultibodyElement< T > && )

delete

◆ operator=() [2/2]

MultibodyElement& operator= ( const MultibodyElement< T > & )

delete

◆ ordinal_impl()

int ordinal_impl ( ) const

protected

Returns this element's unique ordinal.

◆ SetDefaultParameters()

void SetDefaultParameters ( systems::Parameters< T > * parameters ) const

Sets default values of parameters belonging to each MultibodyElement in parameters at a call to MultibodyTreeSystem::SetDefaultParameters().

Parameters

[out] parameters A mutable collections of parameters in a context.

Precondition: parameters != nullptr

◆ SetTopology()

void SetTopology ( const internal::MultibodyTreeTopology & tree )

protected

Gives MultibodyElement-derived objects the opportunity to retrieve their topology after MultibodyTree::Finalize() is invoked.

NVI to pure virtual method DoSetTopology().
