Interactions

A OpenPLX Interaction defines forces given two or more Connectors.

An interaction should in general be considered to represent the equations of motion of a constrained system.

OpenPLX is a work in progress. This draft version will evolve with user feedback and experience. We welcome your input and collaboration.
