  • Method Details

    • combine

      public static TorqueUnit combine(DistanceUnit distance, ForceUnit force)
      Combines a unit of distance and force to create a unit of torque.
      Parameters:
      distance - the distance unit
      force - the force unit
      Returns:
      the combined torque unit
    • getBaseUnit

      Description copied from class: Unit
      Gets the base unit of measurement that this unit is derived from. If the unit is the base unit, the unit will be returned.

      NOTE: Subclasses must override this method to provide the correct return type. Failing to do say will make unit combinations that use it break at runtime!

      
         Unit baseUnit = new Unit(null, ...);
         baseUnit.getBaseUnit(); // returns baseUnit
      
         Unit derivedUnit = new Unit(baseUnit, ...);
         derivedUnit.getBaseUnit(); // returns baseUnit
       
      Overrides:
      getBaseUnit in class MultUnit<DistanceUnit,ForceUnit>
      Returns:
      the base unit
    • of

      public Torque of(double magnitude)
      Description copied from class: MultUnit
      Creates a new immutable measurement of the given magnitude in terms of this unit. Implementations are strongly recommended to sharpen the return type to a unit-specific measurement implementation.

      Note: When called on an object of type MultUnit (and not a subclass!), this method will always return a Mult instance. If you want to avoid casting, use MultUnit.ofNativeBaseUnits(double) that returns a Per instance directly.

      Overrides:
      of in class MultUnit<DistanceUnit,ForceUnit>
      Parameters:
      magnitude - the magnitude of the measure in terms of its base units.
      Returns:
      the measurement object
    • ofBaseUnits

      public Torque ofBaseUnits(double baseUnitMagnitude)
      Description copied from class: MultUnit
      Creates a new immutable measurement of the given magnitude in terms of this unit's base unit. Implementations are strongly recommended to sharpen the return type to a unit-specific measurement implementation.

      Note: When called on an object of type MultUnit (and not a subclass!), this method will always return a Mult instance. If you want to avoid casting, use MultUnit.ofNativeBaseUnits(double) that returns a Per instance directly.

      Overrides:
      ofBaseUnits in class MultUnit<DistanceUnit,ForceUnit>
      Parameters:
      baseUnitMagnitude - the magnitude of the measure in terms of its base units.
      Returns:
      the measurement object
    • zero

      public Torque zero()
      Description copied from class: Unit
      Gets a measure of zero magnitude in terms of this unit. The returned object is guaranteed to be of the same type returned by Unit.of(double). Subclasses are encouraged to override this method to sharpen the return type.
      Overrides:
      zero in class MultUnit<DistanceUnit,ForceUnit>
      Returns:
      a zero-magnitude measure of this unit
    • one

      public Torque one()
      Description copied from class: Unit
      Gets a measure with a magnitude of 1.0 in terms of this unit. The returned object is guaranteed to be of the same type returned by Unit.of(double). Subclasses are encouraged to override this method to sharpen the return type.
      Overrides:
      one in class MultUnit<DistanceUnit,ForceUnit>
      Returns:
      a measure of magnitude 1.0 in terms of this unit
    • mutable

      public MutTorque mutable(double initialMagnitude)
      Description copied from class: Unit
      Creates a new mutable measurement that is initialized to the given magnitude in terms of this unit. Implementations are strongly recommended to sharpen the return type to a unit-specific measurement implementation.
      Overrides:
      mutable in class MultUnit<DistanceUnit,ForceUnit>
      Parameters:
      initialMagnitude - the initial magnitude of the mutable measurement
      Returns:
      the mutable measurement object
    • per

      Description copied from class: Unit
      Combines this unit with a unit of time. This often - but not always - results in a velocity. Subclasses should sharpen the return type to be unit-specific.
      Overrides:
      per in class MultUnit<DistanceUnit,ForceUnit>
      Parameters:
      time - the unit of time
      Returns:
      the combined unit
    • per

      public <U extends Unit> PerUnit<TorqueUnit,U> per(U other)
      Creates a ratio unit between this unit and an arbitrary other unit.
      Type Parameters:
      U - the type of the other unit
      Parameters:
      other - the other unit
      Returns:
      the ratio unit
    • convertFrom

      public double convertFrom(double magnitude, TorqueUnit otherUnit)
      Converts a measurement value in terms of another unit to this unit.
      Parameters:
      magnitude - the magnitude of the measurement in terms of the other unit
      otherUnit - the other unit
      Returns:
      the value of the measurement in terms of this unit
