component.controller.DataVariationLimiter

The DataVariationLimiter component is used to avoid big variation of an input data. It interpolates between two consecutive inputs when a jump is detected. In this directory you will find one example showing how to use the component:

• DataVariationLimiter.pyscn : Soft actuated accordion

Below are images of the simulation.

Example

goal = rootNode.createChild('goal')
goal.createObject('EulerImplicitSolver')
goal.createObject('CGLinearSolver', iterations='100', tolerance="1e-5", threshold="1e-5")
goal.createObject('MechanicalObject', name='goalMO',
                  position='0 0 5',
                  showObject="1",
                  showObjectScale="1",
                  drawMode="1")
goal.createObject('DataVariationLimiter', name="stabilizer", listening="1", input="@goalMO.position") 
goal.createObject('MechanicalObject', name='goalMOStabilized', 
                  position='@stabilizer.output',
                  showObject="1",
                  showObjectScale="1",
                  drawMode="1")
goal.createObject('UncoupledConstraintCorrection')

Data fields

Required	Description
input	Link to the input variables
output	Link to the output
size	Input size.
maxJump	Maximal jump allowed. Default 10% is equivalent to jump = 0.1.
nbStep	Number of interpolation steps. Default is 50.

Optional	Description
initOutput	If true, will initialize the output with the input.
