&++ — Adding two MAMBO vectors or descriptions [mupad/matlab]

Reference for maple version: Appendix B in Multibody Mechanics and Visualization by Harry Dankowicz, published by Springer Verlag UK, 2004.

Calling Sequence

v &++ w

&++(v,w)

Parameters

v,w: MAMBO vectors or compatible MAMBO descriptions

Description

The function &++ returns the vector sum of the two MAMBO vectors/descriptions v and w. In the case of vectors, the Size of the resulting vector equals the number of separate triads in the specifications for each of the individual vectors.

Two MAMBO descriptions are compatible provided that they have the same number of rows and the same number of columns.

Examples

Restart():
DeclareTriads(a,b):
v:=MakeTranslations(a,1):
w:=MakeTranslations([a,1],[b,2]):
v &++ w;
