Struct nphysics3d::joint::HelicalJoint

pub struct HelicalJoint<N: Real> { /* fields omitted */ }

A joint that allows one degree of freedom between two multibody links.

The degree of freedom is the combination of a rotation and a translation along the same axis. Both rotational and translational motions are coupled to generate a screw motion.

Methods

impl<N: Real> HelicalJoint<N>

pub fn new(axis: Unit<Vector3<N>>, pitch: N, angle: N) -> Self

Create an helical joint with the given axis and initial angle.

The pitch controls how much translation is generated for how much rotation. In particular, the translational displacement along axis is given by angle * pitch.

pub fn offset(&self) -> N

The translational displacement along the joint axis.

pub fn angle(&self) -> N

The rotational displacement along the joint axis.

impl<N: Real> HelicalJoint<N>

pub fn min_angle(&self) -> Option<N>

The lower limit of the rotation angle.

pub fn max_angle(&self) -> Option<N>
