GetMultibody

get a module containing the multibody portion of the active MapleSim subsystem

Description

Calling Sequence

A := MapleSim:-LinkModel();

A:-GetMultibody(options)

Parameters

options

-

(optional) equation(s) of the form name = value

Returns

• 

module : evaluated MultibodyObject that allows access to key properties of the multibody system (for example, the mass matrix and constraints). The specific exports of this module are listed in Dynamic_Exports and Kinematic_Exports.

Options

• 

toplevel : true or false

  

Specifies whether the top-level equations should be returned regardless of the active subsystem setting.  Default is false.

• 

simplify : true, false or fast

  

Specifying true applies Maple's simplify command to the multibody expressions. For a large set of equations, this can take significant amounts of time and memory. A reduced (and faster) version of simplification can be applied with the fast option. Default is false.

Description

• 

A:-GetMultibody extracts the multibody portion of the active MapleSim subsystem and packages it into an object that can be manipulated.

• 

The A := MapleSim:-LinkModel() statement needs to be run prior to successfully using any of the ModelObject A's export functions.
