Accessing parcel angular velocity from particel force class

slint · May 17, 2016, 09:25

Hi,

I have added a new class "MagnusForce" in the Kinematic/ParticleForces/Lift folder. However I need access to the angular velocity of the particle to calculate the magnus force.

An option would be to calculate the angular velocity using the angular momentum and momentum of inertia of the particle. The momentum of inertia can be accessed directly from the particle force class but the angular momentum is provided by the colliding particle class. So how to access the angularmomentum() method from within the particle force class?

Best regards

Hello,

Can you resolve the problem?. I am actually trying to do the same thing.
