Information
This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.
Two wheels are connected by an axis and can rotate around this axis. The wheels are rolling on the x-y plane of the world frame. The coordinate system attached to the center of the wheel axis (frameMiddle) is constrained so that it is always parallel to the x-y plane. If all generalized coordinates are zero, frameMiddle is parallel to the world frame.
Note
To work properly, the gravity acceleration vector g of the world must point in the negative z-axis, i.e.
inner Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.World world(n={0,0,-1});
