Abstract:
We provide some implementation details related to the paper “Adaptive Dynamics of Articulated Bodies” [Redon et al. 2005]. Thanks to the recursive nature of the DCA [Featherstone 1999a; Featherstone 1999b], upon which our algorithm is built, the code is highly modular and an object-oriented language is highly appropriate. We have implemented the algorithm in C++.
