class Joint(ABC):
"""Abstract base class for all specific joints.
Explanation
===========
A joint subtracts degrees of freedom from a body. This is the base class
for all specific joints and holds all common methods acting as an interface
for all joints. Custom joint can be created by inheriting Joint class and
defining all abstract functions.
The abstract methods are:
- ``_generate_coordinates``
- ``_generate_speeds``
- ``_orient_frames``
- ``_set_angular_velocity``
- ``_set_linear_velocity``
Parameters
==========

coordinates : iterable of dynamicsymbols, optional
Generalized coordinates of the joint.
speeds : iterable of dynamicsymbols, optional
Generalized speeds of joint.
parent_point : Point or Vector, optional
Attachment point where the joint is fixed to the parent body. If a
vector is provided, then the attachment point is computed by adding the
vector to the body's mass center. The default value is the parent's mass
center.
child_point : Point or Vector, optional
Attachment point where the joint is fixed to the child body. If a
vector is provided, then the attachment point is computed by adding the
vector to the body's mass center. The default value is the child's mass
center.
parent_axis : Vector, optional
.. deprecated:: 1.12
Axis fixed in the parent body which aligns with an axis fixed in the
child body. The default is the x axis of parent's reference frame.
For more information on this deprecation, see
:ref:`deprecated-mechanics-joint-axis`.

.. deprecated:: 1.12
Axis fixed in the child body which aligns with an axis fixed in the
parent body. The default is the x axis of child's reference frame.
For more information on this deprecation, see
:ref:`deprecated-mechanics-joint-axis`.
parent_interframe : ReferenceFrame, optional
Intermediate frame of the parent body with respect to which the joint
transformation is formulated. If a Vector is provided then an interframe
is created which aligns its X axis with the given vector. The default
value is the parent's own frame.
child_interframe : ReferenceFrame, optional
Intermediate frame of the child body with respect to which the joint
transformation is formulated. If a Vector is provided then an interframe

Notes
=====
When providing a vector as the intermediate frame, a new intermediate frame
is created which aligns its X axis with the provided vector. This is done
with a single fixed rotation about a rotation axis. This rotation axis is
determined by taking the cross product of the ``body.x`` axis with the
provided vector. In the case where the provided vector is in the ``-body.x``
direction, the rotation is done about the ``body.y`` axis.

Returns an intermediate frame, where the ``frame_axis`` defined in

axis will be aligned with ``axis``.
Parameters
==========
frame : Body or ReferenceFrame
The body or reference frame with respect to which the intermediate
frame is oriented.
align_axis : Vector
The vector with respect to which the intermediate frame will be
aligned.
frame_axis : Vector
The vector of the frame which should get aligned with ``axis``. The

Example
=======
An intermediate frame, where the X axis of the parent becomes aligned
with ``parent.y + parent.z`` can be created as follows:
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics.joint import Joint
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import Body
>>> parent = Body('parent')

Notes
=====
The direction cosine matrix between the given frame and intermediate

Explanation
===========
A pin joint is defined such that the joint rotation axis is fixed in both
the child and parent and the location of the joint is relative to the mass
center of each body. The child rotates an angle, θ, from the parent about
the rotation axis and has a simple angular speed, ω, relative to the
parent. The direction cosine matrix between the child interframe and
parent interframe is formed using a simple rotation about the joint axis.

intermediate frames.

Examples
=========
A single pin joint is created from two bodies and has the following basic
attributes:
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import Body, PinJoint
>>> parent = Body('P')
>>> parent
P
>>> child = Body('C')
>>> child
C
>>> joint = PinJoint('PC', parent, child)
>>> joint
PinJoint: PC parent: P child: C
>>> joint.name
'PC'
>>> joint.parent
P
>>> joint.child
C
>>> joint.parent_point
P_masscenter
>>> joint.child_point
C_masscenter
>>> joint.parent_axis
P_frame.x
>>> joint.child_axis
C_frame.x
>>> joint.coordinates
Matrix([[q_PC(t)]])
>>> joint.speeds
Matrix([[u_PC(t)]])
>>> joint.child.frame.ang_vel_in(joint.parent.frame)
u_PC(t)*P_frame.x
>>> joint.child.frame.dcm(joint.parent.frame)
Matrix([
[1, 0, 0],
[0, cos(q_PC(t)), sin(q_PC(t))],
[0, -sin(q_PC(t)), cos(q_PC(t))]])
>>> joint.child_point.pos_from(joint.parent_point)
0
To further demonstrate the use of the pin joint, the kinematics of simple
double pendulum that rotates about the Z axis of each connected body can be
created as follows.
>>> from sympy import symbols, trigsimp
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import Body, PinJoint
>>> l1, l2 = symbols('l1 l2')
First create bodies to represent the fixed ceiling and one to represent
each pendulum bob.
>>> ceiling = Body('C')
>>> upper_bob = Body('U')
>>> lower_bob = Body('L')
The first joint will connect the upper bob to the ceiling by a distance of
``l1`` and the joint axis will be about the Z axis for each body.
>>> ceiling_joint = PinJoint('P1', ceiling, upper_bob,
... child_point=-l1*upper_bob.frame.x,
... joint_axis=ceiling.frame.z)
The second joint will connect the lower bob to the upper bob by a distance
of ``l2`` and the joint axis will also be about the Z axis for each body.
>>> pendulum_joint = PinJoint('P2', upper_bob, lower_bob,
... child_point=-l2*lower_bob.frame.x,
... joint_axis=upper_bob.frame.z)
Once the joints are established the kinematics of the connected bodies can
be accessed. First the direction cosine matrices of pendulum link relative
to the ceiling are found:
>>> upper_bob.frame.dcm(ceiling.frame)
Matrix([
[ cos(q_P1(t)), sin(q_P1(t)), 0],
[-sin(q_P1(t)), cos(q_P1(t)), 0],
[ 0, 0, 1]])
>>> trigsimp(lower_bob.frame.dcm(ceiling.frame))
Matrix([
[ cos(q_P1(t) + q_P2(t)), sin(q_P1(t) + q_P2(t)), 0],
[-sin(q_P1(t) + q_P2(t)), cos(q_P1(t) + q_P2(t)), 0],
[ 0, 0, 1]])
The position of the lower bob's masscenter is found with:
>>> lower_bob.masscenter.pos_from(ceiling.masscenter)
l1*U_frame.x + l2*L_frame.x
The angular velocities of the two pendulum links can be computed with
respect to the ceiling.
>>> upper_bob.frame.ang_vel_in(ceiling.frame)
u_P1(t)*C_frame.z
>>> lower_bob.frame.ang_vel_in(ceiling.frame)
u_P1(t)*C_frame.z + u_P2(t)*U_frame.z
And finally, the linear velocities of the two pendulum bobs can be computed
with respect to the ceiling.
>>> upper_bob.masscenter.vel(ceiling.frame)
l1*u_P1(t)*U_frame.y
>>> lower_bob.masscenter.vel(ceiling.frame)
l1*u_P1(t)*U_frame.y + l2*(u_P1(t) + u_P2(t))*L_frame.y

Explanation
===========
It is defined such that the child body translates with respect to the parent
body along the body-fixed joint axis. The location of the joint is defined
by two points, one in each body, which coincide when the generalized
coordinate is zero. The direction cosine matrix between the
parent_interframe and child_interframe is the identity matrix. Therefore,
the direction cosine matrix between the parent and child frames is fully
defined by the definition of the intermediate frames. The page on the joints
framework gives a more detailed explanation of the intermediate frames.

To further demonstrate the use of the prismatic joint, the kinematics of two
masses sliding, one moving relative to a fixed body and the other relative
to the moving body. about the X axis of each connected body can be created
as follows.
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import PrismaticJoint, Body
First create bodies to represent the fixed ceiling and one to represent
a particle.
>>> wall = Body('W')
>>> Part1 = Body('P1')
>>> Part2 = Body('P2')

Explanation
===========
A cylindrical joint is defined such that the child body both rotates about
and translates along the body-fixed joint axis with respect to the parent
body. The joint axis is both the rotation axis and translation axis. The
location of the joint is defined by two points, one in each body, which
coincide when the generalized coordinate corresponding to the translation is
zero. The direction cosine matrix between the child interframe and parent
interframe is formed using a simple rotation about the joint axis. The page
on the joints framework gives a more detailed explanation of the
intermediate frames.

>>> child.masscenter.vel(parent.frame)

To further demonstrate the use of the cylindrical joint, the kinematics of
two cylindrical joints perpendicular to each other can be created as follows.
>>> from sympy import symbols
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import Body, CylindricalJoint
>>> r, l, w = symbols('r l w')
First create bodies to represent the fixed floor with a fixed pole on it.
The second body represents a freely moving tube around that pole. The third
body represents a solid flag freely translating along and rotating around
the Y axis of the tube.
>>> floor = Body('floor')
>>> tube = Body('tube')
>>> flag = Body('flag')
The first joint will connect the first tube to the floor with it translating
along and rotating around the Z axis of both bodies.
>>> floor_joint = CylindricalJoint('C1', floor, tube, joint_axis=floor.z)
The second joint will connect the tube perpendicular to the flag along the Y
axis of both the tube and the flag, with the joint located at a distance
``r`` from the tube's center of mass and a combination of the distances
``l`` and ``w`` from the flag's center of mass.
>>> flag_joint = CylindricalJoint('C2', tube, flag,
... parent_point=r * tube.y,
... child_point=-w * flag.y + l * flag.z,
... joint_axis=tube.y)
Once the joints are established the kinematics of the connected bodies can
be accessed. First the direction cosine matrices of both the body and the
flag relative to the floor are found:
>>> tube.dcm(floor)
Matrix([
[ cos(q0_C1(t)), sin(q0_C1(t)), 0],
[-sin(q0_C1(t)), cos(q0_C1(t)), 0],
[ 0, 0, 1]])
>>> flag.dcm(floor)
Matrix([
[cos(q0_C1(t))*cos(q0_C2(t)), sin(q0_C1(t))*cos(q0_C2(t)), -sin(q0_C2(t))],
[ -sin(q0_C1(t)), cos(q0_C1(t)), 0],
[sin(q0_C2(t))*cos(q0_C1(t)), sin(q0_C1(t))*sin(q0_C2(t)), cos(q0_C2(t))]])
The position of the flag's center of mass is found with:
>>> flag.masscenter.pos_from(floor.masscenter)
q1_C1(t)*floor_frame.z + (r + q1_C2(t))*tube_frame.y + w*flag_frame.y - l*flag_frame.z
The angular velocities of the two tubes can be computed with respect to the
floor.
>>> tube.ang_vel_in(floor)
u0_C1(t)*floor_frame.z
>>> flag.ang_vel_in(floor)
u0_C1(t)*floor_frame.z + u0_C2(t)*tube_frame.y
Finally, the linear velocities of the two tube centers of mass can be
computed with respect to the floor, while expressed in the tube's frame.
>>> tube.masscenter.vel(floor.frame).to_matrix(tube.frame)
Matrix([
[ 0],
[ 0],
[u1_C1(t)]])
>>> flag.masscenter.vel(floor.frame).to_matrix(tube.frame).simplify()
Matrix([
[-l*u0_C2(t)*cos(q0_C2(t)) - r*u0_C1(t) - w*u0_C1(t) - q1_C2(t)*u0_C1(t)],
[ -l*u0_C1(t)*sin(q0_C2(t)) + Derivative(q1_C2(t), t)],

Explanation
===========
A planar joint is defined such that the child body translates over a fixed
plane of the parent body as well as rotate about the rotation axis, which
is perpendicular to that plane. The origin of this plane is the
``parent_point`` and the plane is spanned by two nonparallel planar vectors.
The location of the ``child_point`` is based on the planar vectors
($\\vec{v}_1$, $\\vec{v}_2$) and generalized coordinates ($q_1$, $q_2$),
i.e. $\\vec{r} = q_1 \\hat{v}_1 + q_2 \\hat{v}_2$. The direction cosine
matrix between the ``child_interframe`` and ``parent_interframe`` is formed
using a simple rotation ($q_0$) about the rotation axis.
In order to simplify the definition of the ``PlanarJoint``, the
``rotation_axis`` and ``planar_vectors`` are set to be the unit vectors of
the ``parent_interframe`` according to the table below. This ensures that
you can only define these vectors by creating a separate frame and supplying
that as the interframe. If you however would only like to supply the normals
of the plane with respect to the parent and child bodies, then you can also
supply those to the ``parent_interframe`` and ``child_interframe``
arguments. An example of both of these cases is in the examples section
below and the page on the joints framework provides a more detailed
explanation of the intermediate frames.

>>> child.masscenter.vel(parent.frame)

To further demonstrate the use of the planar joint, the kinematics of a
block sliding on a slope, can be created as follows.
>>> from sympy import symbols
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import PlanarJoint, Body, ReferenceFrame
>>> a, d, h = symbols('a d h')
First create bodies to represent the slope and the block.
>>> ground = Body('G')
>>> block = Body('B')
To define the slope you can either define the plane by specifying the
``planar_vectors`` or/and the ``rotation_axis``. However it is advisable to
create a rotated intermediate frame, so that the ``parent_vectors`` and
``rotation_axis`` will be the unit vectors of this intermediate frame.
>>> slope = ReferenceFrame('A')
>>> slope.orient_axis(ground.frame, ground.y, a)
The planar joint can be created using these bodies and intermediate frame.
We can specify the origin of the slope to be ``d`` above the slope's center
of mass and the block's center of mass to be a distance ``h`` above the
slope's surface. Note that we can specify the normal of the plane using the
rotation axis argument.
>>> joint = PlanarJoint('PC', ground, block, parent_point=d * ground.x,
... child_point=-h * block.x, parent_interframe=slope)
Once the joint is established the kinematics of the bodies can be accessed.
First the ``rotation_axis``, which is normal to the plane and the
``plane_vectors``, can be found.
>>> joint.rotation_axis
A.x
>>> joint.planar_vectors
[A.y, A.z]
The direction cosine matrix of the block with respect to the ground can be
found with:
>>> block.dcm(ground)
Matrix([
[ cos(a), 0, -sin(a)],
[sin(a)*sin(q0_PC(t)), cos(q0_PC(t)), sin(q0_PC(t))*cos(a)],
[sin(a)*cos(q0_PC(t)), -sin(q0_PC(t)), cos(a)*cos(q0_PC(t))]])
The angular velocity of the block can be computed with respect to the
ground.
>>> block.ang_vel_in(ground)
u0_PC(t)*A.x
The position of the block's center of mass can be found with:
>>> block.masscenter.pos_from(ground.masscenter)
d*G_frame.x + h*B_frame.x + q1_PC(t)*A.y + q2_PC(t)*A.z
Finally, the linear velocity of the block's center of mass can be
computed with respect to the ground.
>>> block.masscenter.vel(ground.frame)
u1_PC(t)*A.y + u2_PC(t)*A.z
In some cases it could be your preference to only define the normals of the
plane with respect to both bodies. This can most easily be done by supplying
vectors to the ``interframe`` arguments. What will happen in this case is
that an interframe will be created with its ``x`` axis aligned with the
provided vector. For a further explanation of how this is done see the notes
of the ``Joint`` class. In the code below, the above example (with the block
on the slope) is recreated by supplying vectors to the interframe arguments.
Note that the previously described option is however more computationally
efficient, because the algorithm now has to compute the rotation angle
between the provided vector and the 'x' axis.
>>> from sympy import symbols, cos, sin
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import PlanarJoint, Body
>>> a, d, h = symbols('a d h')
>>> ground = Body('G')
>>> block = Body('B')
>>> joint = PlanarJoint(

class SphericalJoint(Joint):
"""Spherical (Ball-and-Socket) Joint.
.. image:: SphericalJoint.svg
:align: center
:width: 600
Explanation
===========
A spherical joint is defined such that the child body is free to rotate in
any direction, without allowing a translation of the ``child_point``. As can
also be seen in the image, the ``parent_point`` and ``child_point`` are
fixed on top of each other, i.e. the ``joint_point``. This rotation is
defined using the :func:`parent_interframe.orient(child_interframe,
rot_type, amounts, rot_order)
<sympy.physics.vector.frame.ReferenceFrame.orient>` method. The default
rotation consists of three relative rotations, i.e. body-fixed rotations.
Based on the direction cosine matrix following from these rotations, the
angular velocity is computed based on the generalized coordinates and
generalized speeds.
Parameters
==========
name : string
A unique name for the joint.
parent : Body
The parent body of joint.
child : Body
The child body of joint.
coordinates: iterable of dynamicsymbols, optional
Generalized coordinates of the joint.
speeds : iterable of dynamicsymbols, optional
Generalized speeds of joint.
parent_point : Point or Vector, optional
Attachment point where the joint is fixed to the parent body. If a
vector is provided, then the attachment point is computed by adding the
vector to the body's mass center. The default value is the parent's mass
center.
child_point : Point or Vector, optional
Attachment point where the joint is fixed to the child body. If a
vector is provided, then the attachment point is computed by adding the
vector to the body's mass center. The default value is the child's mass
center.
parent_interframe : ReferenceFrame, optional
Intermediate frame of the parent body with respect to which the joint
transformation is formulated. If a Vector is provided then an interframe
is created which aligns its X axis with the given vector. The default
value is the parent's own frame.
child_interframe : ReferenceFrame, optional
Intermediate frame of the child body with respect to which the joint
transformation is formulated. If a Vector is provided then an interframe
is created which aligns its X axis with the given vector. The default
value is the child's own frame.
rot_type : str, optional
The method used to generate the direction cosine matrix. Supported
methods are:
- ``'Body'``: three successive rotations about new intermediate axes,
also called "Euler and Tait-Bryan angles"
- ``'Space'``: three successive rotations about the parent frames' unit
vectors
The default method is ``'Body'``.
amounts :
Expressions defining the rotation angles or direction cosine matrix.
These must match the ``rot_type``. See examples below for details. The
input types are:
- ``'Body'``: 3-tuple of expressions, symbols, or functions
- ``'Space'``: 3-tuple of expressions, symbols, or functions
The default amounts are the given ``coordinates``.
rot_order : str or int, optional
If applicable, the order of the successive of rotations. The string
``'123'`` and integer ``123`` are equivalent, for example. Required for
``'Body'`` and ``'Space'``. The default value is ``123``.

[ u0_PC(t)*sin(q1_PC(t)) + u2_PC(t)]])

>>> joint.child_point.pos_from(joint.parent_point)
0
To further demonstrate the use of the spherical joint, the kinematics of a
spherical joint with a ZXZ rotation can be created as follows.
>>> from sympy import symbols
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import Body, SphericalJoint
>>> l1 = symbols('l1')
First create bodies to represent the fixed floor and a pendulum bob.
>>> floor = Body('F')
>>> bob = Body('B')
The joint will connect the bob to the floor, with the joint located at a
distance of ``l1`` from the child's center of mass and the rotation set to a
body-fixed ZXZ rotation.
>>> joint = SphericalJoint('S', floor, bob, child_point=l1 * bob.y,
... rot_type='body', rot_order='ZXZ')
Now that the joint is established, the kinematics of the connected body can
be accessed.
The position of the bob's masscenter is found with:
>>> bob.masscenter.pos_from(floor.masscenter)
- l1*B_frame.y
The angular velocities of the pendulum link can be computed with respect to
the floor.
>>> bob.frame.ang_vel_in(floor.frame).to_matrix(
... floor.frame).simplify()
Matrix([
[u1_S(t)*cos(q0_S(t)) + u2_S(t)*sin(q0_S(t))*sin(q1_S(t))],
[u1_S(t)*sin(q0_S(t)) - u2_S(t)*sin(q1_S(t))*cos(q0_S(t))],
[ u0_S(t) + u2_S(t)*cos(q1_S(t))]])
Finally, the linear velocity of the bob's center of mass can be computed.
>>> bob.masscenter.vel(floor.frame).to_matrix(bob.frame)
Matrix([
[ l1*(u0_S(t)*cos(q1_S(t)) + u2_S(t))],
[ 0],
[-l1*(u0_S(t)*sin(q1_S(t))*sin(q2_S(t)) + u1_S(t)*cos(q2_S(t)))]])

Explanation
===========
A weld joint is defined such that there is no relative motion between the
child and parent bodies. The direction cosine matrix between the attachment
frame (``parent_interframe`` and ``child_interframe``) is the identity
matrix and the attachment points (``parent_point`` and ``child_point``) are
coincident. The page on the joints framework gives a more detailed
explanation of the intermediate frames.

parent : Body
The parent body of joint.
child : Body
The child body of joint.
parent_point : Point or Vector, optional

>>> parent = Body('P')

>>> child = Body('C')
>>> child

Matrix([
[1, 0, 0],
[0, 1, 0],
[0, 0, 1]])
>>> joint.child_point.pos_from(joint.parent_point)
0
To further demonstrate the use of the weld joint, two relatively-fixed
bodies rotated by a quarter turn about the Y axis can be created as follows:
>>> from sympy import symbols, pi
>>> from sympy.physics.mechanics import ReferenceFrame, Body, WeldJoint
>>> l1, l2 = symbols('l1 l2')
First create the bodies to represent the parent and rotated child body.
>>> parent = Body('P')
>>> child = Body('C')
Next the intermediate frame specifying the fixed rotation with respect to
the parent can be created.
>>> rotated_frame = ReferenceFrame('Pr')
>>> rotated_frame.orient_axis(parent.frame, parent.y, pi / 2)
The weld between the parent body and child body is located at a distance
``l1`` from the parent's center of mass in the X direction and ``l2`` from
the child's center of mass in the child's negative X direction.
>>> weld = WeldJoint('weld', parent, child, parent_point=l1 * parent.x,
... child_point=-l2 * child.x,
... parent_interframe=rotated_frame)
Now that the joint has been established, the kinematics of the bodies can be
accessed. The direction cosine matrix of the child body with respect to the
parent can be found:
>>> child.dcm(parent)
Matrix([
[0, 0, -1],
[0, 1, 0],
[1, 0, 0]])
As can also been seen from the direction cosine matrix, the parent X axis is
aligned with the child's Z axis:
>>> parent.x == child.z
True
The position of the child's center of mass with respect to the parent's
center of mass can be found with:
>>> child.masscenter.pos_from(parent.masscenter)
l1*P_frame.x + l2*C_frame.x
The angular velocity of the child with respect to the parent is 0 as one
would expect.
>>> child.ang_vel_in(parent)
