AbsolutePosition

Measure absolute position vector of the origin of a frame connector

    AbsolutePosition

Library

Modelica/Mechanics/MultiBody/Sensors

Description

The absolute position vector of the origin of frame_a is determined and provided at the output signal connector r.

Via parameter resolveInFrame it is defined, in which frame the position vector is resolved:

resolveInFrame =
Types.ResolveInFrameA.
Meaning
world Resolve vector in world frame
frame_a Resolve vector in frame_a
frame_resolve Resolve vector in frame_resolve

If resolveInFrame = Types.ResolveInFrameA.frame_resolve, the conditional connector "frame_resolve" is enabled and r is resolved in the frame, to which frame_resolve is connected. Note, if this connector is enabled, it must be connected.

Example

If resolveInFrame = Types.ResolveInFrameA.frame_a, the output vector is computed as:

r = MultiBody.Frames.resolve2(frame_a.R, frame_b.r_0);
