Detailed Description

Minimize the error between a model's step time asymmetry and a specified target asymmetry value over a gait cycle.

Step Length Asymmetry (SLA) is a ratio and is calculated as follows: The Right Step Length (RSL) is the distance between feet at right foot strike The Left Step Length (LSL) is the distance between feet at left foot strike Step Length Asymmetry = (RSL - LSL) / (RSL + LSL)

In this goal, the distance between feet, or "foot frames", is limited throughout the gait cycle. The goal calculates the distance between the left foot and right foot, then limits the distance between feet to not pass beyond minimum (negative) or maximum (positive) bounds. There are two limits used: one that limits the distance between feet when the right foot is in front, and one that limits the distance between feet when the left foot is in front.

Users must provide the target asymmetry value via 'setTargetAsymmetry()'. Asymmetry values ranges from -1.0 to 1.0. For example, 0.20 is 20% positive step length asymmetry with greater right step length than left step length. A symmetric step length solution can be achieved by setting this property to zero. This goal can be used only in 'cost' mode. To make this goal suitable for gradient-based optimization, step length values are assigned via a smoothing function which can be controlled via 'setAsymmetrySmoothing()'.

Users must also prescribe the stride length via 'setStrideLength()'. The goal then calculates the minimum and maximum bounds on the distance between right and left foot. Users must ensure that this stride length is met via problem bounds or other goals; the value provided to MocoStepLengthAsymmetryGoal is only used to compute the model's asymmetry in the cost function.

Note
This goal is designed for simulations of bipedal gait.
Since this goal approximates step length asymmetry, users should calculate the true asymmetry value after running an optimization.

You may need to realize the state to the stage required for your calculations.

Do NOT realize to a stage higher than the goal's stage dependency; doing so will cause an exception to be thrown. The Lagrange multipliers for kinematic constraints are not available.

◆ clone()

MocoStepLengthAsymmetryGoal* OpenSim::MocoStepLengthAsymmetryGoal::clone ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Create a new heap-allocated copy of the concrete object to which this Object refers.

It is up to the caller to delete the returned object when no longer needed. Every concrete object deriving from Object implements this pure virtual method automatically, via the declaration macro it invokes (e.g., OpenSim_DECLARE_CONCRETE_OBJECT()). Note that the concrete class overrides modify the return type to be a pointer to the concrete object; that still overrides the base class method because the return type is covariant with (that is, derives from) Object.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ getConcreteClassName()

const std::string& OpenSim::MocoStepLengthAsymmetryGoal::getConcreteClassName ( ) const

Returns the class name of the concrete Object-derived class of the actual object referenced by this Object, as a string.

This is the string that is used as the tag for this concrete object in an XML file. Every concrete class derived from Object automatically overrides this method via the declaration macro it uses. See getClassName() to get the class name of the referencing (possibly abstract) class rather than the concrete object.

◆ setAsymmetrySmoothing()

void OpenSim::MocoStepLengthAsymmetryGoal::setAsymmetrySmoothing ( double  smoothing)
inline

Set the values that determines the smoothing of the asymmetry computation.

This term is necessary since this computation is non-smooth. Larger smoothing values mean that larger step length errors are required for a given step to be counted towards the total asymmetry error minimized in the cost.

◆ setLeftFootFrame()

Set the body frame associated with the left foot.

Set the known stride length of your walking simulation.

This value is necessary to compute step length asymmetry.

◆ setTargetAsymmetry()

void OpenSim::MocoStepLengthAsymmetryGoal::setTargetAsymmetry ( double  asymmetry)

Set the asymmetry value targeted by this goal.

The error between the target asymmetry and the model asymmetry is squared in the integrand.

Set the walking direction of the model in the ground frame, which is used to compute step lengths.

Acceptable direction values include "positive-x", "positive-y", "positive-z", "negative-x", "negative-y", and "negative-z". Default: "positive-x".
