Joints
Components that constrain the motion between two frames
Package Contents
 | Assemblies Joint aggregations for analytic loop handling |
 | Internal Components used for analytic solution of kinematic loops (use only if you know what you are doing) |
 | Cylindrical Cylindrical joint (2 degrees-of-freedom, 4 potential states) |
 | FreeMotion Free motion joint (6 degrees-of-freedom, 12 potential states) |
 | GearConstraint Ideal 3-dim. gearbox (arbitrary shaft directions) |
 | Planar Planar joint (3 degrees-of-freedom, 6 potential states) |
 | Prismatic Prismatic joint (1 translational degree-of-freedom, 2 potential states, optional axis flange) |
 | Revolute Revolute joint (1 rotational degree-of-freedom, 2 potential states, optional axis flange) |
 | RevolutePlanarLoopConstraint Revolute joint that is described by 2 positional constraints for usage in a planar loop (the ambiguous cut-force perpendicular to the loop and the ambiguous cut-torques are set arbitrarily to zero) |
 | RollingWheel Joint (no mass, no inertia) that describes an ideal rolling wheel (rolling on the plane z=0) |
 | RollingWheelSet Joint (no mass, no inertia) that describes an ideal rolling wheel set (two ideal rolling wheels connected together by an axis) |
 | Spherical Spherical joint (3 constraints and no potential states, or 3 degrees-of-freedom and 3 states) |
 | SphericalSpherical Spherical - spherical joint aggregation (1 constraint, no potential states) with an optional point mass in the middle |
 | Universal Universal joint (2 degrees-of-freedom, 4 potential states) |
 | UniversalSpherical Universal - spherical joint aggregation (1 constraint, no potential states) |
