Constructor & Destructor Documentation

IMP::kinematics::PrismaticJoint::PrismaticJoint ( IMP::core::RigidBody  parent,
IMP::core::RigidBody  child,
IMP::core::XYZ  a,
IMP::core::XYZ  b 
)

Create a prismatic joint whose axis of translation is from a to b, which serve as witnesses for the joint transformation (a is associated with the parent and b with the child)

IMP::kinematics::PrismaticJoint::PrismaticJoint ( IMP::core::RigidBody  parent,
IMP::core::RigidBody  child 
)

Create a prismatic joint whose axis of translation is between the reference frames of parent and child, who also serve as witnesses for the joint transformation

Member Function Documentation

double IMP::kinematics::PrismaticJoint::get_length ( ) const

Get the length of the prismatic joint.

The length is defined as the length between the two witnesses.

void IMP::kinematics::PrismaticJoint::set_length ( double  l)

sets the length of the prismatic joint to l, that is the length between the two witnesses set up upon construction (in a lazy fashion, without updating external coords). Updates the owner of the change in internal coordinates.

Note
it is assumed that l > 0, and for efficiency, runtime checks for this are not made in fast mode
virtual void IMP::kinematics::PrismaticJoint::update_joint_from_cartesian_witnesses ( )
protectedvirtual

Update the length and transformation of the prismatic joint based on the distance and relative orientation of the witnesses given upon construction.

Note
It is assumed that external coordinates are updated before calling this function.

Reimplemented from IMP::kinematics::Joint.
