trep - Core Components

The central component of trep is the System class. A System is a collection of coordinate frames, forces, potential energies, and constraints that describe a mechanical system in generalized coordinates. The System is capable of calculating the continuous dynamics and the first and second derivatives of the dynamics.

• System - A Mechanical System
• Frame – Coordinate Frame
• Config – Configuration Variables
• Input – Input Variables
• Force – Base Class for Forces
• Potential – Base Class for Potential Energies
• Constraint – Base Class for Holonomic Constraints
• MidpointVI - Midpoint Variational Integrator
