use-work

Mechanical work helpers for RustUse.

Install

[dependencies]
use-work = "0.0.1"

Foundation

use-work provides small f64-first helpers for mechanical work, work at an angle, net work, spring work, gravitational work, friction work, and simple work-energy relationships.

Inputs are expected to be SI-style numeric values:

• newtons for force and friction force magnitude
• meters for displacement, height, and spring displacement
• joules for work and energy
• radians for angle helpers unless the function name says degrees
• newtons per meter for spring constant

The crate does not define a full unit system.

Example

use use_work::{ConstantForceWork, work, work_at_angle_degrees};

let constant = ConstantForceWork::new(10.0, 2.0).unwrap();

assert_eq!(work(10.0, 2.0), Some(20.0));
assert_eq!(constant.work(), Some(20.0));
assert!((work_at_angle_degrees(10.0, 2.0, 60.0).unwrap() - 10.0).abs() < 1e-12);

When to use directly

Choose use-work when you only need reusable scalar helpers for mechanical work calculations.

Scope

• APIs stay f64-first and do not define a full unit system.
• Vector operations should live in or compose with use-vector.
• Broad energy helpers belong in use-energy.
• Broad power helpers belong in use-power.

Status

use-work is a pre-1.0 crate with a deliberately small API.
