ODEnetwork (version 1.3.2)

ODEnetwork: Constructor of the class ODEnetwork

Description

Creates a list of class ODEnetwork. The coordinate type can be set to cartesian (position and velocity) or to polar coordinates (angle and magnitude).

Usage

ODEnetwork(masses, dampers, springs, cartesian = TRUE, distances = NA)

Arguments

masses

[vector] of length n The masses of the mechanical oscillators.

dampers

[matrix] quadratic of size n The dampers of the mechanical oscillators on the main diagonal. Connecting dampers between oscillators on the upper triangle. (Will be copied automatically to create a symmetric matrix.)

springs

[matrix] quadratic of size n The springs are defined in the network like matrix of dampers.

cartesian

[boolean(1)] If TRUE, state1 and state2 are position and velocity, otherwise angle and magnitude. Default is TRUE.

distances

[matrix] quadratic of size n Describes the length of each spring. Elements on the main diagonal describe spring length connecting the masses to the ground. All upper triangle elements describe spring distance between two masses i < j. Default is NA, which is equivalent to a zero matrix. (Value will be copied automatically to lower triangle creating a symmetric matrix.)

Value

a list of class [ODEnetwork].

Examples

# NOT RUN {
mM <- c(40, 10, 10)
mD <- diag(c(1, 5, 0))
mD[1, 2] <- 1
mD[2, 3] <- 1
mK <- diag(c(50, 50, 0))
mK[1, 2] <- 10
mK[2, 3] <- 10
odenet <- ODEnetwork(mM, mD, mK)
# }
