rigid_euler_angles

Module: solid

Category: bc

Type string: "rigid_euler_angles"

Parameters

Name Description Default Range Units
rb Rigid material -1 \(\in \mathbb{Z}\)
convention convention 0 \([0, 0]\)
Ex Ex 0 \(\in \mathbb{R}\) d
Ey Ey 0 \(\in \mathbb{R}\) d
Ez Ez 0 \(\in \mathbb{R}\) d

Description

The rigid_euler_angles constraint allows the user to prescribe the rotation of a rigid body using three Euler angles.

The rb parameter is the name attribute assigned to the corresponding rigid body material as defined in the Material section.

The following example prescribes a rotation around the z-axis using a load controller.
