%*** CHAPTER 8: DYNAMICS OF OPEN CHAINS ***

function c = VelQuadraticForces(thetalist, dthetalist, Mlist, Glist, Slist)
% Takes thetalist: A list of joint variables,
%       dthetalist: A list of joint rates,
%       Mlist: List of link frames i relative to i-1 at the home position,
%       Glist: Spatial inertia matrices Gi of the links,
%       Slist: Screw axes Si of the joints in a space frame, in the format
%              of a matrix with the screw axes as the columns,
% Returns c: The vector c(thetalist,dthetalist) of Coriolis and centripetal
%            terms for a given thetalist and dthetalist.
% This function calls InverseDynamics with g = 0, Ftip = 0, and 
% ddthetalist = 0.
