HISTORY -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5/20/00 TP Created FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The purpose of this class is to provide storage for computed forces and encapsulate all the functionality associated with transforming those forces from their native coord system to the body system. This includes computing the moments due to the difference between the point of application and the cg. CAVEAT: if the custom transform is used for wind-to-body transforms then the user *must* always pass this class the negative of beta. This is true because sideslip angle does not follow the right hand rule i.e. it is positive for aircraft nose left sideslip. Note that use of the custom transform for this purpose shouldn't be necessary as it is already provided by SetTransform(tWindBody) and is not subject to the same restriction. ******************************************************************************** SENTRY *******************************************************************************/ #ifndef FGFORCE_H #define FGFORCE_H /******************************************************************************* INCLUDES *******************************************************************************/ #define ID_FORCE "$Header" #include "FGFDMExec.h" #include "FGMatrix.h" /******************************************************************************* CLASS DECLARATION *******************************************************************************/ typedef enum { tNone, tWindBody, tLocalBody, tCustom } TransformType; class FGForce { public: FGForce(FGFDMExec *FDMExec); ~FGForce(void); inline void SetNativeForces(float Fnx, float Fny, float Fnz) { vFn(1)=Fnx; vFn(2)=Fny; vFn(3)=Fnz; } inline void SetNativeForces(FGColumnVector vv) { vFn = vv; }; inline void SetNativeMoments(float Ln,float Mn, float Nn) { vMn(1)=Ln; vMn(2)=Mn; vMn(3)=Nn; } inline void SetNativeMoments(FGColumnVector vv) { vMn = vv; } inline FGColumnVector GetNativeForces(void) { return vFn; } inline FGColumnVector GetNativeMoments(void) { return vMn; } FGColumnVector GetBodyForces(void); inline FGColumnVector GetMoments(void) { return vM; } //point of application, JSBsim structural coords //(inches, x +back, y +right, z +up) inline void SetLocation(float x, float y, float z) { vXYZn(1) = x; vXYZn(2) = y; vXYZn(3) = z; } inline void SetLocation(FGColumnVector vv) { vXYZn = vv; } FGColumnVector GetLocation(void) { return vXYZn; } //these angles are relative to body axes, not earth!!!!! //I'm using these because pitch, roll, and yaw are easy to visualize, //there's no equivalent to roll in wind axes i.e. alpha, ? , beta //making up new names or using these is a toss-up: either way people //are going to get confused. //They are in radians. void SetAnglesToBody(float broll, float bpitch, float byaw); inline void SetAnglesToBody(FGColumnVector vv) { SetAnglesToBody(vv(1), vv(2), vv(3));} inline void SetSense(float x, float y, float z) { vSense(1)=x, vSense(2)=y, vSense(3)=z; } inline void SetSense(FGColumnVector vv) { vSense=vv; } inline FGColumnVector GetSense(void) { return vSense; } inline void SetTransformType(TransformType ii) { ttype=ii; } inline TransformType GetTransformType(void) { return ttype; } FGMatrix Transform(void); protected: FGColumnVector vFn; FGColumnVector vMn; private: FGColumnVector vFb; FGColumnVector vM; FGColumnVector vXYZn; FGColumnVector vDXYZ; FGColumnVector vSense; FGMatrix mT; FGFDMExec *fdmex; TransformType ttype; }; #endif
