This class serves as a serializable ActiveForceLengthCurve, commonly used to model the active element in muscle models.
The active-force-length curve is dimensionless: force is normalized to maximum isometric force and length is normalized to resting fiber length. Five properties are used to construct a curve:
- Parameters
-
minActiveNormFiberLength | The normalized fiber length where the steep ascending limb of the active-force-length curve transitions to the minimum value and has first and second derivatives of 0. |
transitionNormFiberLength | The normalized fiber length where the steep ascending limb transitions to the shallow ascending limb. |
maxActiveNormFiberLength | The normalized fiber length where the descending limb transitions to the minimum value and has first and second derivatives of 0. |
shallowAscendingSlope | The slope of the shallow ascending limb. |
minimumValue | The minimum value of the active-force-length curve. If you are using an equilibrium model, this value must be greater than 0, as a value of 0 will cause a singularity in the muscle dynamic equations. |
Conditions
0 < minActiveNormFiberLength < transitionNormFiberLength < 1 < maxActiveNormFiberLength
0 <= shallowAscendingSlope < 1/(1-transitionNormFiberLength)
0 <= minimumValue
Default Parameter Values The default parameters have been chosen so that the resulting curve closely matches the active-force-length curve for human sarcomeres, as documented by Nigg and Herzog (1994). The descending limb has been adjusted to match the in-vitro human fiber data reported by Gollapudi and Lin (2009). The default shoulder value is set to 0.1. This relatively large value is used to ensure that muscle model dynamic equations with an active-force-length singularity do not take an unreasonable amount of time to simulate (simulation time grows as the value of the active-force-length curve approaches 0). Muscle model formulations that do not have this singularity (e.g., the Millard2012AccelerationMuscle model) can use a minimumValue of 0.
minActiveNormFiberLength ..... 0.4441
transitionNormFiberLength .... 0.73
maxActiveNormFiberLength ..... 1.8123
shallowAscendingSlope ........ 0.8616
minimumValue ................. 0.1
Example
double falVal = falCurve1.calcValue(1.0);
double dfalVal = falCurve1.calcDerivative(1.0, 1);
Note that this object should be updated through the set methods provided. These set methods will take care of rebuilding the curve correctly. If you modify the properties directly, the curve will not be rebuilt, and upon calling a function like calcValue, calcDerivative, or printCurveToCSVFile, an exception will be thrown because the curve is out-of-date with its properties.
