principalToReferenceTransformation

Class: simscape.multibody.MassDistribution
Namespace: simscape.multibody

Compute 3-D rigid transformation between principal and reference frames

Since R2022a

Syntax

T = principalToReferenceTransformation(md)

Description

T = principalToReferenceTransformation(md) computes the 3-D rigid transformation that maps the coordinates from the principal frame to the implicit reference frame of the simscape.multibody.MassDistribution object, md.

Input Arguments

md — Mass distribution

simscape.multibody.MassDistribution object

Mass distribution, specified as a simscape.multibody.MassDistribution object.

Output Arguments

T — 3-D rigid transformation between principal and reference frames

simscape.multibody.Transformation object

3-D rigid transformation between the principal and implicit reference frames of the mass distribution, returned as a simscape.multibody.Transformation object.
