*SetBodyInertia() - symmetric body pair

Sets the mass properties of a symmetric body pair.

Syntax

*SetBodyInertia(body_name, LEFT|RIGHT, mass, 
                                                ixx, iyy, izz, 
                                                ixy, ixz, iyz)

Arguments

body_name: The variable name of an existing body pair.; Data type: varname
LEFT RIGHT: If LEFT is specified, the properties are assigned to the left body, and the right body properties are made symmetric to the left body.; If RIGHT is specified, the properties are assigned to the right body, and the left body properties are made symmetric to the right body.
mass: The mass of the specified side of the body pair.; Data type: real
ixx, iyy, izz, ixy, ixz, iyz: The moments of inertia of the specified side of the body pair.; Data type: real

Example

*Body(crank, "Crank", crank_cm)
*SetBodyInertia(crank, LEFT, 3, 
10000, 10000, 10000,
