omni.isaac.lab.sim.schemas

Sub-module containing utilities for schemas used in Omniverse.

We wrap the USD schemas for PhysX and USD Physics in a more convenient API for setting the parameters from Python. This is done so that configuration objects can define the schema properties to set and make it easier to tune the physics parameters without requiring to open Omniverse Kit and manually set the parameters into the respective USD attributes.

小心

Schema properties cannot be applied on prims that are prototypes as they are read-only prims. This particularly affects instanced assets where some of the prims (usually the visual and collision meshes) are prototypes so that the instancing can be done efficiently.

In such cases, it is assumed that the prototypes have sim-ready properties on them that don’t need to be modified. Trying to set properties into prototypes will throw a warning saying that the prim is a prototype and the properties cannot be set.

The schemas are defined in the following links:

• UsdPhysics schema

• PhysxSchema schema

Locally, the schemas are defined in the following files:

• _isaac_sim/extsPhysics/omni.usd.schema.physics/plugins/UsdPhysics/resources/UsdPhysics/schema.usda

• _isaac_sim/extsPhysics/omni.usd.schema.physx/plugins/PhysxSchema/resources/generatedSchema.usda

备注

This is a non-USD schema property. It is handled by the modify_articulation_root_properties() function.

omni.isaac.lab.sim.schemas.define_articulation_root_properties(prim_path: str, cfg: schemas_cfg.ArticulationRootPropertiesCfg, stage: Usd.Stage | None = None)

Apply the articulation root schema on the input prim and set its properties.

See modify_articulation_root_properties() for more details on how the properties are set.

参数:

• prim_path – The prim path where to apply the articulation root schema.

• cfg – The configuration for the articulation root.

• stage – The stage where to find the prim. Defaults to None, in which case the current stage is used.

抛出:

omni.isaac.lab.sim.schemas.modify_articulation_root_properties(prim_path: str, cfg: schemas_cfg.ArticulationRootPropertiesCfg, stage: Usd.Stage | None = None) → bool

Modify PhysX parameters for an articulation root prim.

The articulation root marks the root of an articulation tree. For floating articulations, this should be on the root body. For fixed articulations, this API can be on a direct or indirect parent of the root joint which is fixed to the world.

The schema comprises of attributes that belong to the ArticulationRootAPI and PhysxArticulationAPI. schemas. The latter contains the PhysX parameters for the articulation root.

The properties are applied to the articulation root prim. The common properties (such as solver position and velocity iteration counts, sleep threshold, stabilization threshold) take precedence over those specified in the rigid body schemas for all the rigid bodies in the articulation.

小心

When the attribute schemas_cfg.ArticulationRootPropertiesCfg.fix_root_link is set to True, a fixed joint is created between the root link and the world frame (if it does not already exist). However, to deal with physics parser limitations, the articulation root schema needs to be applied to the parent of the root link.

Modify PhysX parameters for a joint prim.

This function checks if the input prim is a prismatic or revolute joint and applies the joint drive schema on it. If the joint is a tendon (i.e., it has the PhysxTendonAxisAPI schema applied on it), then the joint drive schema is not applied.

Deformable Body

class omni.isaac.lab.sim.schemas.DeformableBodyPropertiesCfg

Properties to apply to a deformable body.

A deformable body is a body that can deform under forces. The configuration allows users to specify the properties of the deformable body, such as the solver iteration counts, damping, and self-collision.

An FEM-based deformable body is created by providing a collision mesh and simulation mesh. The collision mesh is used for collision detection and the simulation mesh is used for simulation. The collision mesh is usually a simplified version of the simulation mesh.

Based on the above, the PhysX team provides APIs to either set the simulation and collision mesh directly (by specifying the points) or to simplify the collision mesh based on the simulation mesh. The simplification process involves remeshing the collision mesh and simplifying it based on the target triangle count.

Since specifying the collision mesh points directly is not a common use case, we only expose the parameters to simplify the collision mesh based on the simulation mesh. If you want to provide the collision mesh points, please open an issue on the repository and we can add support for it.

See modify_deformable_body_properties() for more information.

备注

If the values are None, they are not modified. This is useful when you want to set only a subset of the properties and leave the rest as-is.

备注

This value is ignored if the user provides the simulation mesh points directly. However, we assume that most users will not provide the simulation mesh points directly. If you want to provide the simulation mesh directly, please set this value to None.

collision_simplification: bool

Whether or not to simplify the collision mesh before creating a soft body out of it. Defaults to True.

备注

This flag is ignored if the user provides the simulation mesh points directly. However, we assume that most users will not provide the simulation mesh points directly. Hence, this flag is enabled by default.

Rest offset for the collision shape (in m).

The rest offset quantifies how close a shape gets to others at rest, At rest, the distance between two vertically stacked objects is the sum of their rest offsets. If a pair of shapes have a positive rest offset, the shapes will be separated at rest by an air gap.

max_depenetration_velocity: float | None

Maximum depenetration velocity permitted to be introduced by the solver (in m/s).

omni.isaac.lab.sim.schemas.define_deformable_body_properties(prim_path: str, cfg: schemas_cfg.DeformableBodyPropertiesCfg, stage: Usd.Stage | None = None)

Apply the deformable body schema on the input prim and set its properties.

See modify_deformable_body_properties() for more details on how the properties are set.

备注

If the input prim is not a mesh, this function will traverse the prim and find the first mesh under it. If no mesh or multiple meshes are found, an error is raised. This is because the deformable body schema can only be applied to a single mesh.

参数:

• prim_path – The prim path where to apply the deformable body schema.

• cfg – The configuration for the deformable body.

• stage – The stage where to find the prim. Defaults to None, in which case the current stage is used.

抛出:

• ValueError – When the prim path is not valid.

• ValueError – When the prim has no mesh or multiple meshes.

omni.isaac.lab.sim.schemas.modify_deformable_body_properties(prim_path: str, cfg: schemas_cfg.DeformableBodyPropertiesCfg, stage: Usd.Stage | None = None)

Modify PhysX parameters for a deformable body prim.

A deformable body is a single body that can be simulated by PhysX. Unlike rigid bodies, deformable bodies support relative motion of the nodes in the mesh. Consequently, they can be used to simulate deformations under applied forces.

PhysX soft body simulation employs Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate the deformations of the mesh. It uses two tetrahedral meshes to represent the deformable body:

1. Simulation mesh: This mesh is used for the simulation and is the one that is deformed by the solver.

2. Collision mesh: This mesh only needs to match the surface of the simulation mesh and is used for collision detection.

For most applications, we assume that the above two meshes are computed from the “render mesh” of the deformable body. The render mesh is the mesh that is visible in the scene and is used for rendering purposes. It is composed of triangles and is the one that is used to compute the above meshes based on PhysX cookings.

The schema comprises of attributes that belong to the PhysxDeformableBodyAPI. schemas containing the PhysX parameters for the deformable body.

小心

The deformable body schema is still under development by the Omniverse team. The current implementation works with the PhysX schemas shipped with Isaac Sim 4.0.0 onwards. It may change in future releases.

This function is decorated with apply_nested() that sets the properties to all the prims (that have the schema applied on them) under the input prim path.

参数:

• prim_path – The prim path to the deformable body.

• cfg – The configuration for the deformable body.

• stage – The stage where to find the prim. Defaults to None, in which case the current stage is used.

返回:

True if the properties were successfully set, False otherwise.
