Physics Program Manuals

Updated Markdown editions of the per-model program manuals, verified against the current physics engines in Physics/Source/. Part of the HVE Manual.

Manuals

  • EDHIS — occupant (human interior simulation) model
  • EDSMAC — 2-D collision & trajectory simulation
  • EDSMAC4 — enhanced SMAC collision simulation
  • EDSVS — single-vehicle (2-DOF) dynamics
  • EDVDS — vehicle dynamics (trucks/articulated)
  • EDVSM — vehicle stability & rollover (HVOSM)
  • EDVTS — tractor-semitrailer dynamics
  • SIMON — 3-D multi-body simulation with DyMESH
  • DyMESH — 3-D dynamic-mesh collision & damage model (used by SIMON / EDSMAC4)
  • GATB — articulated total-body human model
  • RDF — import external time-position data as an event
