Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ChPathFollowerDriverStanley() [1/2]

chrono::vehicle::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley ( ChVehicle vehicle,
std::shared_ptr< ChBezierCurve path,
const std::string &  path_name,
double  target_speed,
double  maxWheelTurnAngle = 0.0 
)

Construct using the specified Bezier curve.

Parameters
vehicleassociated vehicle
pathBezier curve with target path
path_namename of the path curve
target_speedconstant target speed
maxWheelTurnAngleneeded for wheeled vehicles, use default for tracked vehicles

◆ ChPathFollowerDriverStanley() [2/2]

chrono::vehicle::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley::ChPathFollowerDriverStanley ( ChVehicle vehicle,
const std::string &  steering_filename,
const std::string &  speed_filename,
std::shared_ptr< ChBezierCurve path,
const std::string &  path_name,
double  target_speed,
double  maxWheelTurnAngle = 0.0 
)

Construct using JSON specification files.

The two files must contain specification for the path-follower steering controller and the constant-speed controller, respectively.

Parameters
vehicleassociated vehicle
steering_filenameJSON file with steering controller specification
speed_filenameJSON file with speed controller specification
pathBezier curve with target path
path_namename of the path curve
target_speedconstant target speed
maxWheelTurnAngleneeded for wheeled vehicles, use default for tracked vehicles
