CalculateMassPropertiesTo

CalculateMassPropertiesTo[linkage, dens]
calculates the mass properties of all links of linkage using dens density value and assigns the {frame,mass,moment of inertia } values to the $LDMassProperties record. The function resets the result to linkage.
CalculateMassPropertiesTo[linkage, names, dens]
calculates the mass properties of list of links ( names) of linkage using dens density value.
CalculateMassPropertiesTo[linkage, {name1→dens1, name2→dens2, ...}]
calculates the mass properties of the specifies links using the specified densities.
CalculateMassPropertiesTo[linkage]
calculates the mass properties of all geometries using unit density.
  • CalculateMassPropertiesTo calls CalculateMassProperties function to calculate the mass properties and resets returned linkage to the input linkage
