Detailed Description

This is the base class for actuators that apply controllable tension along a geometry path.

PathActuator has no states; the control is simply the tension to be applied along a geometry path (i.e. tensionable rope).

virtual SimTK::Vec3 OpenSim::PathActuator::computePathColor ( const SimTK::State & state ) const

protectedvirtual

Override this method if you would like to calculate a color for use when the PathActuator's path is displayed in the visualizer.

You do not have to invoke the base class ("Super") method, just replace it completely. This method will be invoked during realizeDynamics() so the supplied state has already been realized through Stage::Velocity and you can access time, position, and velocity dependent quantities. You must not attempt to realize the passed-in state any further since we are already in the middle of realizing here. Return SimTK::Vec3(SimTK::NaN) if you want to leave the color unchanged (that's what the base class implementation does).

Parameters

[in] state A SimTK::State already realized through Stage::Velocity. Do not attempt to realize it any further.

Returns: The desired color for the path as an RGB vector with each component ranging from 0 to 1, or NaN to indicate that the color should not be changed.

Reimplemented in OpenSim::Muscle, and OpenSim::ClutchedPathSpring.

Return a flag indicating whether the Force is applied along a Path.

If you override this method to return true for a specific subclass, it must also implement the getGeometryPath() method.

virtual

In case the ModelComponent has a visual representation (VisualObject), override this method to update it.

This is typically done by recomputing anchor points and positions based on transforms obtained from current state.

Reimplemented from OpenSim::ModelComponent.

virtual void OpenSim::PathActuator::updateFromXMLNode	(	SimTK::Xml::Element &	objectElement,
		int	versionNumber = `-1`
	)

virtual

Use this method to deserialize an object from a SimTK::Xml::Element.

The element is assumed to be in the format consistent with the passed-in versionNumber. If there is a file attribute in objectElement it will be ignored; if you want it processed you should call readObjectFromXMLNodeOrFile() instead.

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Object.
