absolute velocity
Hi there, are there any ways to access the relative and absolute velocity while the object is simulating? Or can I only access it for plotting?
Arbitrary online measurements are implemented in frameMeasurements.jl and are used in force elements, e.g. Bushing.jl. I think the simplest approach would be to modify or copy an existing force element.
would it still work if the object I'm working with is not a force element but a revolute joint? I noticed that in Rotational.jl model file, there are sensor models which measures the absolute velocity of the flange? Would that work better?
Yes, you can also use flanges of prismatic and rotational joints, like speedSensor in ServoWithRampAndRevolute.jl. But this is rather Modia stuff and restricted to joint state variables.
