Quaternion creation, component access, and Euler angle conversion in PyChrono

Run the time-stepping loop, collect data, and post-process results with matplotlib or CSV.

Irrlicht visualization — visual shapes (mesh, line, spring), materials, GUI overlays, path rendering, and collision debug.

Create rigid bodies with mass, geometry, collision shapes, and visual assets.

Enable contact detection using the correct contact material for NSC or SMC systems.

Apply custom forces/torques to rigid bodies via accumulators, and impose prescribed motion or force between two bodies using ChLinkMotor classes. Covers axis-aware force/torque application and paired internal reactions.

Create and configure a PyChrono ChSystem, gravity, contact method, and solver.

Joint topology, kinematic constraints, and elastic links for MBS. Covers revolute, prismatic, motors, springs, axis-aware joint frames, and correct topology for mechanisms with ground pivots and fixed guides.
