public class SimpleForceMuscle
extends MuscleMaterial

A muscle material with no passive force that simply adds a constant force proportional to the excitation signal. Used mostly for debugging. Note that a constant force does *not* mean constant stress - as the cross sectional area in the force direction changes, the stress needs to vary as well in order to keep the force constant.

getAllPropertyInfo

public PropertyList getAllPropertyInfo()

Description copied from interface: HasProperties

Returns a list giving static information about all properties exported by this object.

Specified by:

getAllPropertyInfo in interface HasProperties

Overrides:

getAllPropertyInfo in class MaterialBase

Returns:

static information for all exported properties

setMaxStress

public void setMaxStress(double maxStress)

getMaxStress

public double getMaxStress()

setMaxStressMode

public void setMaxStressMode(PropertyMode mode)

getMaxStressMode

public PropertyMode getMaxStressMode()

computeStress

public void computeStress(SymmetricMatrix3d sigma,
                          double excitation,
                          Vector3d dir0,
                          SolidDeformation def,
                          FemMaterial baseMat)

Specified by:

computeStress in class MuscleMaterial

computeTangent

public void computeTangent(Matrix6d D,
                           SymmetricMatrix3d stress,
                           double excitation,

                           FemMaterial baseMat)

Specified by:

computeTangent in class MuscleMaterial

hasSymmetricTangent

public boolean hasSymmetricTangent()

Description copied from class: MaterialBase

Returns true if the tangent matrix for this material is symmetric. While this is normally true, some special materials (such as those whose stress is not derived from a conservative energy funtion) may have a non-symmetric tangent, in which case this function should be overridden to return false.

Overrides:

hasSymmetricTangent in class MaterialBase

Returns:

true if the tangent matrix for this material is symmetric.

equals

public boolean equals(MuscleMaterial mat)

Overrides:

equals in class MuscleMaterial

clone

public SimpleForceMuscle clone()

Description copied from interface: CompositeProperty

Returns a clone of this composite property.

Specified by:

clone in interface CompositeProperty

Specified by:

clone in interface Clonable

Overrides:

clone in class MuscleMaterial

Returns:

clone of this property

scaleDistance

public void scaleDistance(double s)

Description copied from interface: ScalableUnits

Scales all distance coordinates.

Specified by:

scaleDistance in interface ScalableUnits

Overrides:

scaleDistance in class MaterialBase

Parameters:

s - scaling factor

scaleMass

public void scaleMass(double s)

Description copied from interface: ScalableUnits

Scales all mass units.

Specified by:

scaleMass in interface ScalableUnits

Overrides:

scaleMass in class MaterialBase

Parameters:

s - scaling factor
