Compute the fraction of available torque to be delivered to each wheel and gather a list of all wheels connected to the differential.

Parameters:
  • axleDescription[in] is a decription of the axles of the vehicle and the wheels on each axle.

  • wheelParams[in] is an array that describes the wheel radius of each wheel.

  • diffParams[in] specifies the operation of a tank differential.

  • thrustCommand0[in] is the state of one of the two thrust controllers.

  • thrustCommand1[in] is the state of one of the two thrust controllers.

  • diffState[out] contains the fraction of available drive torque to be delivered to each wheel connected to the differential.

  • wheelConstraintGroupState[out] describes the groups of wheels connected by sharing a tank track.
