Detailed Description

This class performs local energy minimization of a MultibodySystem.

Static Public Member Functions

static void minimizeEnergy (const MultibodySystem &system, State &state, Real tolerance)
 Find the local energy minimum of a MultibodySystem.

Member Function Documentation

static void minimizeEnergy ( const MultibodySystem system,
State state,
Real  tolerance 
) [static]

Find the local energy minimum of a MultibodySystem.

Parameters:
system the system whose energy should be minimized
state on entry, this should contain the starting state from which to begin the search. On exit, it contains a (usually nearby) state at which the energy is a local minimum.
tolerance a tolerance for the energy minimization. The search ends when no component of the energy gradient is larger than this.
