Hello, I need to model the following situation, but I am not sure if this is possible with the built-in classes. Let's suppose we have two rigid bodies "A" and "B". "A" can move freely along the world x-axis via a prismatic joint, let's call this displacement "x". I want to constrain the rotation of B to be a function of this displacement, which requires 3 constraint equations of the form "c(x)=0". If this would depend on time, then the motion could be imposed, but that's not the case, since body "A" can move freely along the x-axis.
Is there a way to achieve this? Of course, a controller could be implemented, but I need to preserve the energy here, so I think it is only possible via analytical constraints. Thanks a lot in advance. Simone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ProjectChrono" group.
