Hi.
I am trying to make a constraint condition between two segments: A node on Segment 2 should be on the surface of Segment 1.
Assuming that the node of Segment 2 can translate on x, y axis, I think it may be possible by using AnyKinEqSimpleDriver like this;
In this case, Segment 2 has 5 dof with this driver, but 1 dof of z translation is not be constrained; thus it is indeterminate. How can I give the constraint and make it a determinate system?
Currently, AnyBody supports some analytic surface(AnyParamSurfAnalytical) such as AnySurfSphere, AnySurfEllipsoid and AnySurfCylinder.
And AnyBody has ‘AnyKinPointSurface’ kinematic measure. You can refer to this class.
Or, if you would like to describe what you want to do with some helpful pictures,
then we may be able to help you more.
Ahh… Then the code that I wrote on the first thread is making 5 constraints of fixation on the segment!
I thought a driver works only for making something move, but I found that it also works for making something not to move.
