chrono::fea::ChLoadNodeXYZRot Class Referenceabstract

Description

Base class for loads representing a concentrated wrench (force + torque) acting on a ChNodeFEAxyzrot.

Users should inherit from this and implement custom ComputeForceTorque(), this is enough to have the load working. Note: some predefined examples are provided, e.g. ChLoadNodeXYZRotForceAbs.
