Detailed Description

This is a rigid body in the shape of a line, which is inherently inertialess about its axis.

Its mass properties may be modified later, but only in such a way that the Body remains inertialess about one axis.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SimTK::Body::Linear::Linear ( const MassProperties ) [explicit]

Member Function Documentation

Every type of Body should provide an initial set of rigid body mass properties defined at Topology stage (i.e., in the System rather than the State).

This is thus a Topology-stage change which will require a new realizeTopology() before use.

Reimplemented from SimTK::Body.
