OpenSim plugin to extract the muscle lines of action

The aim of this project is to provide OpenSim
users with a useful tool to obtain muscle lines of
actions and potentially link their musculoskeletal
models and simulations to their finite element
models. NOTE: This version of the plugin
work with OpenSim 4.x but previous versions for
OpenSim 3.x are still available in the Downloads >

A musculoskeletal model for simulations that involve high hip and knee flexion

The goal of this project was to developed a
refined musculoskeletal model capable of
simulating movements that involve substantial hip
and knee flexion (e.g. sprinting and cycling). The
model is based on the model published by Rajagopal
et al., (2016). Please cite the following
paper, "Lai, A.K.M, Arnold, A.S., Wakeling, J.M.

Examining Muscle Forces during Sit to Stand Transfer with Full Body Model 2016

The purpose of this study was to: 1) develop a
model that would be adequate in analyzing the sit
to stand (STS) transfer motion 2) examine
individual muscle forces, their contributions to
the acceleration of the center of mass, as well as
inter-limb differences in muscle forces produced
during the STS transfer in a young, healthy
population.

Simulations of Crouch Gait

Simulations of individuals with cerebral palsy
who walk in a crouch gait . These simulations
were used in analyses of (1) contributions to mass
center accelerations, (2) impacts of muscle
weakness, (3) magnitudes of tibiofemoral contact
forces, and (4) evaluations of ankle foot orthoses
during crouch gait. Downloads provide all
supporting files for OpenSim simulations. Please
