Detailed Description

Recursive newton euler forward dynamics solver.

The algorithm implementation is based on the book "Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms" of Roy Featherstone, 2008 (ISBN:978-0-387-74314-1) See Chapter 6 for basic algorithm.

It calculates the accelerations for the joints (qdotdot), given the position and velocity of the joints (q,qdot,qdotdot), external forces on the segments (expressed in the segments reference frame), and the dynamical parameters of the segments.

updateInternalDataStructures()

virtual void KDL::ChainFdSolver_RNE::updateInternalDataStructures ( )

virtual

Update the internal data structures. This is required if the number of segments or number of joints of a chain/tree have changed. This provides a single point of contact for solver memory allocations.

Implements KDL::SolverI.
