+ *
+ * Here is how it is done: after every time step linear and angular
+ * velocities are tested against the corresponding thresholds. If they

+ * make the object oscillate every step; both can make the simulation unstable.
+ *
+ * To disable damping just set the damping scale to zero.
+ *
+ * You can also limit the maximum angular velocity. In contrast to the damping
+ * functions, the angular velocity is affected before the body is moved.
+ * This means that it will introduce errors in joints that are forcing the body
+ * to rotate too fast. Some bodies have naturally high angular velocities
+ * (like cars' wheels), so you may want to give them a very high (like the default,
+ * dInfinity) limit.
+ *
+ * @note The velocities are damped after the stepper function has moved the
+ * object. Otherwise the damping could introduce errors in joints. First the
+ * joint constraints are processed by the stepper (moving the body), then
+ * the damping is applied.
+ *

+ * Currently the point of reference must correspond to the body's center of mass.
+ * @li Linear velocity of the point of reference, a vector (vx,vy,vz).
+ * @li Orientation of a body, represented by a quaternion (qs,qx,qy,qz) or
+ * a 3x3 rotation matrix.
+ * @li Angular velocity vector (wx,wy,wz) which describes how the orientation
+ * changes over time.
+ *
+ * Other body properties are usually constant over time:
+ *
+ * @li Mass of the body.
+ * @li Position of the center of mass with respect to the point of reference.
+ * In the current implementation the center of mass and the point of
+ * reference must coincide.
+ * @li Inertia matrix. This is a 3x3 matrix that describes how the body's mass
+ * is distributed around the center of mass. Conceptually each body has an
+ * x-y-z coordinate frame embedded in it that moves and rotates with the body.
+ *
+ * The origin of this coordinate frame is the body's point of reference. Some values

+ * are relative to the global coordinate frame.

+ *
+ * In real life a joint is something like a hinge, that is used to connect two

+ * In ODE a joint is very similar: It is a relationship that is enforced between
+ * two bodies so that they can only have certain positions and orientations
+ * relative to each other.
+ * This relationship is called a constraint -- the words joint and
+ * constraint are often used interchangeably.
+ *
+ * A joint has a set of parameters that can be set. These include:
+ *
+ *
+ * \li dParamLoStop Low stop angle or position. Setting this to
+ * -dInfinity (the default value) turns off the low stop.
+ * For rotational joints, this stop must be greater than -pi to be
+ * effective.
+ * \li dParamHiStop High stop angle or position. Setting this to
+ * dInfinity (the default value) turns off the high stop.
+ * For rotational joints, this stop must be less than pi to be
+ * effective.
+ * If the high stop is less than the low stop then both stops will
+ * be ineffective.
+ * \li dParamVel Desired motor velocity (this will be an angular or
+ * linear velocity).
+ * \li dParamFMax The maximum force or torque that the motor will use to
+ * achieve the desired velocity.
+ * This must always be greater than or equal to zero.
+ * Setting this to zero (the default value) turns off the motor.
+ * \li dParamFudgeFactor The current joint stop/motor implementation has
+ * a small problem:
+ * when the joint is at one stop and the motor is set to move it away
+ * from the stop, too much force may be applied for one time step,
+ * causing a ``jumping'' motion.
+ * This fudge factor is used to scale this excess force.
+ * It should have a value between zero and one (the default value).
+ * If the jumping motion is too visible in a joint, the value can be
+ * reduced.
+ * Making this value too small can prevent the motor from being able to
+ * move the joint away from a stop.
+ * \li dParamBounce The bouncyness of the stops.
+ * This is a restitution parameter in the range 0..1.
+ * 0 means the stops are not bouncy at all, 1 means maximum bouncyness.
+ * \li dParamCFM The constraint force mixing (CFM) value used when not
+ * at a stop.
+ * \li dParamStopERP The error reduction parameter (ERP) used by the
+ * stops.
+ * \li dParamStopCFM The constraint force mixing (CFM) value used by the
+ * stops. Together with the ERP value this can be used to get spongy or
+ * soft stops.
+ * Note that this is intended for unpowered joints, it does not really
+ * work as expected when a powered joint reaches its limit.
+ * \li dParamSuspensionERP Suspension error reduction parameter (ERP).
+ * Currently this is only implemented on the hinge-2 joint.
+ * \li dParamSuspensionCFM Suspension constraint force mixing (CFM) value.
+ * Currently this is only implemented on the hinge-2 joint.
+ *
+ * If a particular parameter is not implemented by a given joint, setting it
+ * will have no effect.
+ * These parameter names can be optionally followed by a digit (2 or 3)
+ * to indicate the second or third set of parameters, e.g. for the second axis
+ * in a hinge-2 joint, or the third axis in an AMotor joint.
