template<unsigned DIM>
template<class Archive>
void AbstractTwoBodyInteractionForce< DIM >::serialize ( Archive &  archive,
const unsigned int  version 
) [inline, private]

Archive the object and its member variables.

Parameters:
archive the archive
version the current version of this class

Reimplemented from AbstractForce< DIM >.

Reimplemented in GeneralisedLinearSpringForce< DIM >, and LinearSpringWithVariableSpringConstantsForce< DIM >.

template<unsigned DIM>
void AbstractTwoBodyInteractionForce< DIM >::UseCutoffPoint ( double  cutoffPoint  )  [inline]

Use a cutoff point, ie specify zero force if two cells are greater than the cutoff distance apart

Parameters:
cutoffPoint the cutoff to use

template<unsigned DIM>
double AbstractTwoBodyInteractionForce< DIM >::GetCutoffPoint (  )  [inline]

Get the cutoff point.

Returns:
CutoffPoint

template<unsigned DIM>
virtual c_vector<double, DIM> AbstractTwoBodyInteractionForce< DIM >::CalculateForceBetweenNodes ( unsigned  nodeAGlobalIndex,
unsigned  nodeBGlobalIndex,
AbstractTissue< DIM > &  rTissue 
) [pure virtual]

Calculates the force between two nodes.

Note that this assumes they are connected and is called by rCalculateVelocitiesOfEachNode()

Parameters:
nodeAGlobalIndex index of one neighbouring node
nodeBGlobalIndex index of the other neighbouring node
rTissue the tissue
Returns:
The force exerted on Node A by Node B.

Implemented in GeneralisedLinearSpringForce< DIM >.

template<unsigned DIM>
void AbstractTwoBodyInteractionForce< DIM >::AddForceContribution ( std::vector< c_vector< double, DIM > > &  rForces,
AbstractTissue< DIM > &  rTissue 
) [inline, virtual]

Overridden AddForceContribution() method.

Parameters:
rForces reference to vector of forces on nodes
rTissue reference to the tissue

Implements AbstractForce< DIM >.
