Module: dynamicObject¶

Object that is to be used by an integrator. This holds the equations of motion, integrate state, energy and momentum calculations. Module: dynamicObject is what puts all of the pieces together for your system

class DynamicObject : public SysModel ¶

#include <dynamicObject.h>

dynamic object class

Public Functions

DynamicObject()¶

— Constructor

This is the constructor, just setting the variables to zero

virtual ~DynamicObject()¶

— Destructor

This is the destructor, nothing to report here

virtual void initializeDynamics()¶

— Initializes the dynamics and variables

This method initializes the stateEffectors and dynamicEffectors and links the necessarry components together

virtual void computeEnergyMomentum(double t)¶

— Method to compute energy and momentum of the system

This method allows a dynamicObject to compute energy and momentum. Great for sim validation purposes

virtual void UpdateState(uint64_t callTime) = 0¶: — This hooks the dyn-object into Basilisk architecture

virtual void equationsOfMotion(double t, double timeStep) = 0¶: — This is computing F = Xdot(X,t)

virtual void integrateState(double t) = 0¶: — This method steps the state forward in time

void setIntegrator(StateVecIntegrator *newIntegrator)¶

— Sets a new integrator

This method changes the integrator in use (Default integrator: RK4)

Public Members

DynParamManager dynManager¶: — Dynamics parameter manager for all effectors

StateVecIntegrator *integrator¶: — Integrator used to propagate state forward

BSKLogger bskLogger¶: — BSK Logging
