This function is not described in Multibody Mechanics and Visualization by Harry Dankowicz, published by Springer Verlag UK, 2004.

Calling Sequence

VelocityDescription([v1, ..., vn])

Parameters

v1, ..., vn: Mambo vectors

Description

The function VelocityDescription returns a Mambo column description, i.e., a vertical array of the Mambo vectors v1, ..., vn.

Examples

>Restart():
>DeclareTriads(a):
>VelocityDescription([seq(MakeTranslations(a,i),i=1..3)]);

$table ([(1, 1) = table ([1 = table ([Triad = a, Coordinates = [\begin{array}{r} 1 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{array}]]), Type = Vector, Size = 1]), Type = Description, (2, 1) = table ([1 = table ([Triad = a, Coordinates = [\begin{array}{r} 0 \\ 1 \\ 0 \end{array}]]), Type = Vector, Size = 1]), Size = [3, 1], (3, 1) = table ([1 = table ([Triad = a, Coordinates = [\begin{array}{r} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{array}]]), Type = Vector, Size = 1])])$
