KiteUtils v0.8.4 - 2024-10-31

• add cms to settings2.yaml, a steering dependant moment coefficient to represent the deformation based turning moment

v0.8.3

KiteUtils v0.8.3

Diff since v0.8.2

• add cs_4p to settings2.yaml, a correction factor for the steering sensitivity of the KPS4 model
• extend documentation of reference frames and the orientation

v0.8.2

KiteUtils v0.8.2

Diff since v0.8.1

Changed

• the function calc_course expects now upwind_dir as parameter
• rename all parameters up_wind_direction to upwind_dir
• the function calc_heading expects now for the orientation the euler angles with respect to the NED reference frame
• it also expects the azimuth to be defined in wind reference frame
• the function fromW2SE expects now the azimuth to be defined in wind reference frame

v0.8.1

KiteUtils v0.8.1

Diff since v0.8.0

Added

• function euler2rot
• function azn2azw (azimuth north to azimuth wind)
• function azimuth_north

Removed

• removed function quat2frame because it was not well defined
• removed function calc_azimuth, replaced with more specific functions (see above)

Changed

• renamed the parameter yaw to azimuth_north for demo_state and demo_state_4p

Fixed

• fixed the function quat2viewer

KiteUtils v0.8.0 - 2024-10-15

Added

• add function calc_orient_rot
• add function quat2frame
• add function quat2viewer
• add is_right_handed_orthonormal
• add enu2ned
• add parameter yaw to the functions demo_state and demo_state_4p

Fixed

• function quat2euler uses the function dcm_to_angle from ReferenceFrameRotations.jl now

• Add parameter yaw to demo_state_4p() and demo_state() (#59) (@ufechner7)

v0.7.12

KiteUtils v0.7.12

Diff since v0.7.11

Changed

• revert the change of the heading calculation in 7.11
• update the documentation on reference frames

v0.7.11

Diff since v0.7.10

KiteUtils v0.7.11 - 2024-09-24

Added

• the function quat2euler(q), where q can be an AbstractVector or a QuatRotation. It returns roll, pitch and yaw in radian.

Changed

• the function calc_heading() had the new parameter upwind_dir with the default -pi/2. Furthermore the result differs by pi from the old calculation. The old calculation was wrong.

v0.7.10

• the fields foil_file, polar_file and flap_height to the Settings struct
• the function wrap2pi
• the function asin2
• documentation for the yaml helper functions readfile, writefile and change_value
