%DYN Matrix representation of manipulator kinematics and dynamics
%
% The original robot toolbox functions used a DYN matrix to describes the
% kinematics and dynamics of a manipulator in a general way.
%
% For an n-axis manipulator, DYN is an nx20 matrix, whose rows comprise
% 
%	1	alpha	link twist angle
%	2	A	link length
%	3	theta	link rotation angle
%	4	D	link offset distance
%	5	sigma	joint type, 0 for revolute, non-zero for prismatic
%	6	mass	mass of the link
%	7	rx	link COG with respect to the link coordinate frame
%	8	ry
%	9	rz
%	10	Ixx	elements of link inertia tensor about the link COG
%	11	Iyy
%	12	Izz
%	13	Ixy
%	14	Iyz
%	15	Ixz
%	16	Jm	armature inertia
%	17	G	reduction gear ratio. joint speed/link speed
%	18	B	viscous friction, motor refered
%	19	Tc+	coulomb friction (positive rotation), motor refered
%	20	Tc-	coulomb friction (negative rotation), motor refered
%
% The first 5 columns of a DYN matrix contain the kinematic parameters
% and maybe used anywhere that a DH kinematic matrix is required -- the
% dynamic data is ignored.
%
% The functionality of the DH matrix has been replaced by the ROBOT object.
