Directions
FrameTransformations.add_direction! — Functionadd_direction!(frames, name::Symbol, axes, fun, δfun=nothing, δ²fun=nothing, δ³fun=nothing)Add a new direction node to frames. The orientation of these direction depends only on time and is computed through the custom functions provided by the user.
The input functions must accept only time as argument and their outputs must be as follows:
fun: return a direction vector.δfun: return a direction vector and its 1st order time derivative.δ²fun: return a direction vector and its 1st and 2nd order time derivatives.δ³fun: return a direction vector and its 1st, 2nd and 3rd order time derivatives.
If δfun, δ²fun or δ³fun are not provided, they are computed via automatic differentiation.
It is expected that the input functions and their outputs have the correct signature. This function does not perform any checks on the output types.
FrameTransformations.add_direction_fixed! — Functionadd_direction_fixed!(frames, name, axes, offset::AbstractVector)Add a fixed direction to frames.
FrameTransformations.add_direction_position! — Functionadd_direction_position!(frames, name::Symbol, origin, target, axes)Add a direction based on the position vector from origin to target in the specified axes.
FrameTransformations.add_direction_velocity! — Functionadd_direction_velocity!(frames, name::Symbol, origin, target, axes)Add a direction based on the velocity vector from origin to target in the specified axes.
FrameTransformations.add_direction_orthogonal! — Functionadd_direction_orthogonal!(frames, name::Symbol, dir1, dir2)Add a direction as the cross product between two existing directions (i.e. dir1 and dir2).
