Package jsim.forces

Interface ForceGenerator

All Known Implementing Classes:

ActuatorForce, DragForce, GravityForce, MagnusForce

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface ForceGenerator

A source of continuous force or torque applied to one or more bodies each tick.

Implementations call RigidBody.applyForce(double, double, double) and/or RigidBody.applyTorque(double, double, double) directly. The world invokes apply(double) on every registered generator after clearing accumulators and before running broadphase.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	apply(double dt)	Apply forces/torques to whichever bodies this generator influences.

Method Details

apply

void apply(double dt)

Apply forces/torques to whichever bodies this generator influences.

Parameters:

dt - the fixed simulation timestep in seconds
