PositionPivotConstraint

PositionPivotConstraint is a Constraint that limits the motion of a particle to a certain length away from a point in space. The implementation of this constraint is position-based like that of PositionDistanceConstraint.

Constructor

new PositionPivotConstraint(pos, c1, len, stiffness, breakForce)

Instantiates new PositionPivotConstraint

Parameters:
NameTypeDescription
posVector2D

position of pivot

c1Particle

constrained particle

lenNumber

constrained length

stiffnessNumber

a relaxation parameter that is stable between [0,1] (higher is more stiff)

breakForceNumber

force at which the constraint breaks

Source

Extends

Methods

applyCorrection(timeStep)
