Information

Joint where frame_b rotates around axis n which is fixed in frame_a. The two frames coincide when "phi + phi_offset = 0", where "phi_offset" is a parameter with a zero default and "phi" is the rotation angle.

This variant of the revolute joint is designed to work together with a length constraint in a kinematic loop. This means that the angle of the revolute joint, phi, is computed such that the length constraint is fulfilled.

Usually, this joint should not be used by a user of the MultiBody library. It is only provided to built-up the Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Joints.Assemblies.JointXYZ joints.
