Class Simulation

java.lang.Object
  uavsim.flightdynamicsmodel.Simulation

public class Simulation
extends java.lang.Object

Defines a simple stub for executing the flight-dynamics model. It creates and configures the aircraft to appear in the air at a particular location with a particular azimuth and airspeed. The pitch and roll are initially neutral.

Simulation

public Simulation(java.lang.String outputFilename)
           throws java.io.IOException

Creates a simulation with the hardcoded initial conditions. There should be no reason to change these.

Parameters:

outputFilename - - the fully qualified filename of the output file for the data log. The path format is dependent on the operating system; e.g., for Linux /home/dtappan/output.dat and for Windows C:\\output.dat (C:/output.dat also resolves correctly).

Throws:

java.io.IOException - for any file error

Method Detail

execute

private void execute()
              throws java.io.IOException

Execute the simulation. Modify the processing here however you want, unless otherwise indicated.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - for any file error

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] arguments)

Runs a basic simulation of the model.

Parameters:

arguments - - the fully qualified output filename of the data log to generate
