}Expand description
Trait describing force-interactions between cellular agents.
Required Methods§
fn calculate_force_between(
&self,
own_pos: &Pos,
own_vel: &Vel,
ext_pos: &Pos,
ext_vel: &Vel,
ext_info: &Inf,
) -> Result<(Force, Force), CalcError>
fn calculate_force_between( &self, own_pos: &Pos, own_vel: &Vel, ext_pos: &Pos, ext_vel: &Vel, ext_info: &Inf, ) -> Result<(Force, Force), CalcError>
Calculates the forces (velocity-derivative) on the corresponding external position given external velocity. By providing velocities, we can calculate terms that are related to friction. The function returns two forces, one acting on the current agent and the other on the external agent.
Provided Methods§
fn is_neighbor(
&self,
own_pos: &Pos,
ext_pos: &Pos,
ext_inf: &Inf,
) -> Result<bool, CalcError>
fn is_neighbor( &self, own_pos: &Pos, ext_pos: &Pos, ext_inf: &Inf, ) -> Result<bool, CalcError>
Checks if the other cell represented by position and information is a neighbor to the current one or not.
fn react_to_neighbors(&mut self, neighbors: usize) -> Result<(), CalcError>
fn react_to_neighbors(&mut self, neighbors: usize) -> Result<(), CalcError>
Reacts to the results gathered by the Interaction::is_neighbor method and changes the state of the cell.
