-
FRAME is the fundamental dynamic container in the simulation. It contains math to handle frame kinematics in an inertial or frame-chain sense
-
BODY is a frame class extended to contain mass and inertia. It is used to resolve forces into accelerations on dynamic bodies, and serves as the base unit for vehicles.
-
NODE is a special frame container used for the application of forces and moments, as well as sensing acceleration.
Documentation on Individual Frame Representations
Detailed documentation on each frame representation is found below. Note that body and node have access to all functions defined for frame.
