Hello, I'd like to run simulation experiments to gather data about how well a rover can follow control commands on a terrain map that changes in elasticity, stiffness, etc. as a rover traverses it. For instance, compact sand becomes fluffier as the front wheels disturb the terrain, which changes the interaction dynamics for the rear wheels. In this situation, I care more about how the difference between actual and predicted robot movements relates to any given terrain variation model, so I'm not really focused on the accuracy of the model in any specific medium.
It seems like with the SCMDeformableTerrain model, only the terrain height is altered and not other properties, but the granular terrain model is very computationally expensive. Do you think it's worth trying the granular terrain model for this problem, or are there good ways of specifying real-time changes to the SCM properties? -Neha -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ProjectChrono" group.
