Hi,

I cannot test it right now on the computer, but it would be something
like this:

clumpId = O.bodies.appendClumped(EO)

You, can drive this clump as one body by changing velocity, and angular
velocity (angVel).

O.bodies[clumpId].state.angVel = (0,0,1)

All the degrees of freedom should stay blocked. This way you obtain
kinematic boundary condition. If you want to have constant force or
moment, you will need to program a servo.

You can alternatively make clump dynamic, apply mass and inertia and
release degrees of freedom. In such a way, you will be able to controll
it by applying force.

Cheers,
Karol

PS I don't know if it works well with mpi.
