Class GenericMechanical

Defined in Program listing for file kernel/src/simulationTools/GenericMechanical.hpp

class GenericMechanical : public LinearOSNS

Formalization and Resolution of a generic mechanical problem: It mixes bilateral equality, complementarity, impact and friction problems.

This class is devoted to contains of a set of Non-Smooth Problem.

Main functions:

  • formalization of the problem: computes M,q using the set of “active” Interactions from the simulation and the interactionBlock-matrices saved in the field interactionBlocks. Functions: initialize(), computeInteractionBlock(), preCompute()

  • solving of the GenericMechanical problem: function compute(), used to call solvers from Numerics through the gmp_driver() interface of Numerics.

  • post-treatment of data: set values of y/lambda variables of the active Interaction (ie Interactions) using ouput results from the solver (velocity,reaction); function postCompute().

For details regarding the available options, see Nonsmooth problems formulations and available solvers in users’ guide.
