pulley
Define a pulley component to parametrize the definition of a cable system.
Syntax
pulley(c,v,r,p1,p2,Ml)
out = pulley(...)
Inputs
- c
- Circle center coordinates in a 3-element vector.
- v
- Circle orientation coordinates in a 3-element vector.
- r
- Circle radius.
- p1
- Input point coordinates in a 3-element vector.
- p2
- Output point coordinates in a 3-element vector.
- Ml
- Cable mass or unit length.
Outputs
- out
- Output
Examples
Example with output argument.
c = [0,0,0];
v = [0,0,100];
r = 100;
p1 = [-100,0,0];
p2 = [0,100,0];
Ml = 1;
out = pulley(c, v, r, p1, p2, Ml);
disp(out);
