Overview
Description: Computation of kinetic and potential energy for the simulated system.
Context: MuJoCo computes system energy as part of the sensor pipeline, enabling energy monitoring for stability analysis, conservation checks, and reward shaping in reinforcement learning applications.
Theoretical Basis
Kinetic energy is computed as T = 0.5 * v^T * M * v, where M is the generalized mass matrix and v is the generalized velocity vector. Potential energy includes gravitational potential energy (sum of m * g * h for each body) and elastic potential energy stored in springs, tendons, and other compliant elements. The total energy (T + V) should be conserved in the absence of dissipation and external forces, providing a useful diagnostic for integration accuracy.
