ODEnetwork: Constructor of the class ODEnetwork
In ODEnetwork: Network of Differential Equations

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

Creates a list of class ODEnetwork. The coordinate type can be set to cartesian (position and velocity) or to polar coordinates (angle and magnitude).

1	ODEnetwork(masses, dampers, springs, cartesian = TRUE, distances = NA)

`masses`	[`vector`] of length n The masses of the mechanical oscillators.
`dampers`	[`matrix`] quadratic of size n The dampers of the mechanical oscillators on the main diagonal. Connecting dampers between oscillators on the upper triangle. (Will be copied automatically to create a symmetric matrix.)
`springs`	[`matrix`] quadratic of size n The springs are defined in the network like matrix of dampers.
`cartesian`	[`boolean(1)`] If `TRUE`, `state1` and `state2` are position and velocity, otherwise angle and magnitude. Default is `TRUE`.
`distances`	[`matrix`] quadratic of size n Describes the length of each spring. Elements on the main diagonal describe spring length connecting the masses to the ground. All upper triangle elements describe spring distance between two masses i < j. Default is `NA`, which is equivalent to a zero matrix. (Value will be copied automatically to lower triangle creating a symmetric matrix.)
