Detailed Description

A class that represents a piece-wise linear control curve.

The curve is specified by an array of control nodes (see class ControlLinearNode) that occur at monotonically increasing times. The value of the control curve is computed by linearly interpolating the values of the appropriate control nodes.

For this Control, parameters are the values of the ControlLinearNode's.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Self

This typedef might be useful within the member functions of this class.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ Super

Use this typedef to refer to the superclass of this class.

Avoid using the explicit type name of the superclass; this would introduce bugs if the superclass is changed.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

Member Function Documentation

◆ assign()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::assign ( Object aObject)
inlineoverride

This allows copy assignment in the Java GUI.

Exceptions
Exceptionif the argument is not of type ControlLinear.

◆ clearControlNodes()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::clearControlNodes ( )

◆ clone()

ControlLinear* OpenSim::ControlLinear::clone ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Create a new heap-allocated copy of the concrete object to which this Object refers.

It is up to the caller to delete the returned object when no longer needed. Every concrete object deriving from Object implements this pure virtual method automatically, via the declaration macro it invokes (e.g., OpenSim_DECLARE_CONCRETE_OBJECT()). Note that the concrete class overrides modify the return type to be a pointer to the concrete object; that still overrides the base class method because the return type is covariant with (that is, derives from) Object.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ copyData()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::copyData ( const ControlLinear aControl)

Copy the member variables of the specified ControlLinear over to this ControlLinear.

◆ filter()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::filter ( double  aT)
overridevirtual

Filter the control curve at a particular time using a PD follower filter.

See also
setFilterOn()
Parameters
aTTime at which to compute a new, filtered control value

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Control.

◆ getClassName()

static const std::string& OpenSim::ControlLinear::getClassName ( )
inlinestatic

This returns "ControlLinear".

See getConcreteClassName() if you want the class name of the underlying concrete object instead.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ getConcreteClassName()

const std::string& OpenSim::ControlLinear::getConcreteClassName ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Returns the class name of the concrete Object-derived class of the actual object referenced by this Object, as a string.

This is the string that is used as the tag for this concrete object in an XML file. Every concrete class derived from Object automatically overrides this method via the declaration macro it uses. See getClassName() to get the class name of the referencing (possibly abstract) class rather than the concrete object.

getClassName()

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getControlMaxValues()

ArrayPtrs<ControlLinearNode>& OpenSim::ControlLinear::getControlMaxValues ( )
inline

◆ getControlMinValues()

ArrayPtrs<ControlLinearNode>& OpenSim::ControlLinear::getControlMinValues ( )
inline

◆ getControlValue()

double OpenSim::ControlLinear::getControlValue ( double  aT)
overridevirtual

Gets the value of this control at time aT.

If the value of the curve is not defined, SimTK::NaN is returned. If the control is set to extrapolate, (see getExtrapolate()), and the time is before that of the first node or after that of the last node, then an extrapolation is performed to determine the value of the control curve. Otherwise, the value of either the first control node or last control node is returned.

Parameters
aTTime at which to get the control.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getControlValueMax()

double OpenSim::ControlLinear::getControlValueMax ( double  aT = 0.0)
overridevirtual

Gets the maximum allowed value of this control at time aT.

Parameters
aTTime at which to get the control.
Returns
Maximum allowed control value. If the value of the curve is not defined, _defaultMax is returned. If the control is set to extrapolate, getExtraplate, and the time is before the first node or after the last node, then an extrapolation is performed to determine the value of the control curve. Otherwise, the value of either the first control node or last control node is returned.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getControlValueMin()

double OpenSim::ControlLinear::getControlValueMin ( double  aT = 0.0)
overridevirtual

Gets the minimum allowed value of this control at time aT.

Parameters
aTTime at which to get the control.
Returns
Minimum allowed control value. If the value of the curve is not defined, _defaultMin is returned. If the control is set to extrapolate, (see getExtraplate()), and the time is before the first node or after the last node, then an extrapolation is performed to determine the value of the control curve. Otherwise, the value of either the first control node or last control node is returned.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getControlValues()

ArrayPtrs<ControlLinearNode>& OpenSim::ControlLinear::getControlValues ( )
inline

◆ getFirstTime()

const double OpenSim::ControlLinear::getFirstTime ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the number of parameters that are used to specify the control curve.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getParameterList() [1/2]

int OpenSim::ControlLinear::getParameterList ( double  aT,
Array< int > &  rList 
)
overridevirtual
Parameters
aTtime
rListIf aT lies between two nodes, the indices of these two nodes are returned; if aT equals the time at which a node occurs, the index of that node is returned; if aT is less than the time of the first node in the array, the index of the first node (i.e., 0) is returned; if aT is greater than the time of the last node, the index of the last node (i.e., size-1) is returned.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getParameterList() [2/2]

int OpenSim::ControlLinear::getParameterList ( double  aTLower,
double  aTUpper,
Array< int > &  rList 
)
overridevirtual

Gets the list of parameters that affect the control curve between two specified times and that do NOT affect the control curve below the lower of these two times.

This method is useful when solving for a set of controls for a dynamic simulation. When solving for a set of controls, one always wants to go forward in time. Therefore, one does not want to change control parameters that affect the control curve at past times.

A control parameter is included in the list only if it affects the control curve in the specified time interval AND does NOT affect the control curve below the lower bound of the specified time interval. So, it is possible that some of the parameters on the returned list could affect the control curve at times greater than the upper bound of the specified time interval.

Parameters
aTLowerLower time bound.
aTUpperUpper time bound.
rListList of indices of the control parameters that affect the curve between aTLower and aTUpper but not before aTLower.
Returns
Length of rList.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getParameterMax()

double OpenSim::ControlLinear::getParameterMax ( int  aI) const
overridevirtual
See also
setParameterMax()
Parameters
aIIndex of the parameter.
Exceptions
Exceptionif aI is invalid.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getParameterMin()

double OpenSim::ControlLinear::getParameterMin ( int  aI) const
overridevirtual
See also
setParameterMin()
Parameters
aIIndex of the parameter for which the minimum value is desired.
Exceptions
Exceptionif aI is invalid.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getParameterNeighborhood()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::getParameterNeighborhood ( int  aI,
double &  rTLower,
double &  rTUpper 
) const
overridevirtual
Parameters
aIIndex of the parameter.
rTLowerThe time of parameter aI-1 or of aI if there is no parameter aI-1. If there are no ControlLinearNode's at all or if aI is invalid, rTLower is given the value SimTK::NaN.
rTUpperThe time of parameter aI+1 or of aI if there is no parameter aI+1. If there are no ControlLinearNode's at all or if aI is invalid, rTUpper is given the value SimTK::NaN.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ getParameterTime()

double OpenSim::ControlLinear::getParameterTime ( int  aI) const

inlinestatic

For use in MATLAB and Python to access the concrete class.

Example: cObj = ControlLinear.safeDownCast(obj). This is equivalent to dynamic_cast<ControlLinear*>(obj) in C++.

◆ setControlValue()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setControlValue ( double  aT,
double  aX 
)
overridevirtual

This method adds a set of control parameters at the specified time unless the specified time equals the time of an existing ControlLinearNode, in which case the parameters of that control node are changed.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ setControlValueMax()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setControlValueMax ( double  aT,
double  aX 
)
overridevirtual

This method adds a set of control parameters at the specified time unless the specified time equals the time of an existing control node, in which case the parameters of that control node are changed.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ setControlValueMin()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setControlValueMin ( double  aT,
double  aX 
)
overridevirtual

This method adds a set of control parameters at the specified time unless the specified time equals the time of an existing control node, in which case the parameters of that control node are changed.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ setKp()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setKp ( double  aKp)

Sets the position gain for PD follower filter.

This value is relevant only if the PD follower filter will be used.

See also

Parameters
aKvValue of velocity gain for the PD follower filter.

◆ setParameterMax()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setParameterMax ( int  aI,
double  aMax 
)
overridevirtual

Set the maximum value that a control parameter can take on.

Parameters
aIIndex of the parameter.
aMaxMaximum value the parameter can have.
Exceptions
Exceptionif aI is invalid.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ setParameterMin()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setParameterMin ( int  aI,
double  aMin 
)
overridevirtual

Sets the minimum value that a control parameter can take on.

Parameters
aIIndex of the parameter.
aMinMinimum value the parameter can have.
Exceptions
Exceptionif aI is invalid.

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ setParameterValue()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setParameterValue ( int  aI,
double  aP 
)
overridevirtual
Parameters
aIIndex of the parameter.
aPThe parameter value is simply the value of the aI-th ControlLinearNode (which is the value of the control curve).

Implements OpenSim::Control.

◆ setupProperties()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setupProperties ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

Connect properties to local pointers.

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Control.

◆ setUseSteps()

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::setUseSteps ( bool  aTrueFalse)

Sets whether or not step functions are used between control nodes or linear interpolation.

When step functions are used, the value of the control curve between two nodes is the value of the node that occurs later in time.

Parameters
aTrueFalseIf true, step functions will be used to determine the value between adjacent nodes. If false, linear interpolation will be used.

◆ simplify() [1/2]

void OpenSim::ControlLinear::simplify ( const PropertySet aProperties)
overridevirtual

The number of control nodes is reduced by first applying a lowpass filter to the sequence of control nodes using a specified cutoff frequency and then removing nodes that keep the curve within a specified distance to the low-pass filtered curve.

The PropertySet should contain:

TYPENAME
PropertyDblcutoff_frequency
PropertyDbldistance
Parameters
aPropertiesPropertySet containing the needed properties for this method.
Exceptions
Exceptionif an error is encountered.

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Control.

◆ simplify() [2/2]

bool OpenSim::ControlLinear::simplify ( const double &  cutoffFrequency,
const double &  distance 
)

Another interface to simplify that: (1) does not require properties, and (2) returns bool on failure for a more graceful batch simplification.
