Namespace: simscape.multibody
Superclasses: simscape.multibody.JointPrimitive

Construct prismatic primitive

Since R2022a

Description

Use an object of the simscape.multibody.PrismaticPrimitive class to construct a prismatic joint primitive. The prismatic joint primitive has one translational degree of freedom along an axis of the base frame. The prismatic primitive appears in many joint objects, such as simscape.multibody.PrismaticJoint and simscape.multibody.PlanarJoint.

Set the InternalMechanics property of a PrismaticPrimitive object to a simscape.multibody.PrismaticPrimitiveInternalMechanics object to specify springs and dampers for the primitive.
