bht_data_compile

Compile the user's DAT-File.

Syntax

[gene_data,discret_data,bound_data,ode_data,phys_data,fish] = bht_data_compile('DataFilename',filename1)

[...] = bht_data_compile('DataFilename',filename1,'ControlsFilename',filename2)

Description

The statement:

>> bht_data_compile('DataFilename',filename1);

does the following:

• It compiles the data contained in the user's DAT-File filename1.dat, checks them and turns them into the MATLAB tructure array variables gene_data, discret_data, bound_data, ode_data, phys_data and fish (see List of output variables for details). These variables are next saved on disk in the MAT-File filename1_data.mat.
• It generates the M-File filename1_kine.m by which articulated bodies' kinematics are handled in the computations.

The command line:

>> bht_data_compile(...,'ControlsFilename',filename2);

generates furthermore a pattern of the M-File filename2.m (the controls M-File). This M-File has to be completed by the user. It drives the time-evolving angles of the articulated bodies' hinges.

The function bht_data_compile runs successively the M-Files bht_translation, bht_boundaries_init, bht_solids_data_init, bht_g_kinematics and bht_g_controls.
