.. _hingedRigidBodyStateEffector: Module: hingedRigidBodyStateEffector ==================================== This class is an instantiation of the stateEffector class and is a hinged rigid body effector. This effector is a rigid body attached to the hub through a torsional spring and damper that approximates a flexible appendage. See Allard, Schaub, and Piggott paper: `General Hinged Solar Panel Dynamics Approximating First-Order Spacecraft Flexing `__ for a detailed description of this model. A hinged rigid body has 2 states: theta and thetaDot The module :download:`PDF Description ` contains further information on this module's function, how to run it, as well as testing. ---- .. autodoxygenfile:: hingedRigidBodyStateEffector.h :project: HingedRigidBodies .. inheritance-diagram:: hingedRigidBodyStateEffector.h
