Detailed Description

This class serves as a serializable FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve, which is used to ensure that the pennation angle approaches but never reaches an angle of 90 degrees.

Preventing the fibers from achieving a pennation angle of 90 degrees is important for equilibrium muscle models which have a singularity at this value.

This curve is designed to work with the muscle model in such a way that it acts like a spring that the pennated muscle fibers contact it as the fiber rotates (circled in red). When the spring engages it will exert a force on the fiber that will prevent it from shortening further, thus preventing the pennation angle from reaching 90 degrees.

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a function like calcValue, calcDerivative, or printCurveToCSVFile an exception will be thrown because the curve is out of date with its properties.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve() [1/3]

OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve ( )

Default constructor creates an curve with the default property values, and assigns it a default name.

◆ FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve() [2/3]

OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve ( double  engagementAngleInDegrees,
double  stiffnessAtPerpendicular,
double  curviness,
const std::string &  muscleName 
)

Constructs a C2 continuous compressive fiber force cos pennation curve.

The sole purpose of this curve is to prevent the pennation angle from reaching an angle of 90 degrees. Details to appear in Millard et al. 2012.

Parameters
engagementAngleInDegreesThe pennation angle engagement angle of the fiber compressive force pennation curve. Making the spring engage too far from 90 degrees may unrealistically limit the force production capability of the muscle. An engagement angle of 80 degrees is a good place to start.
stiffnessAtPerpendicularThis is the stiffness of the compressive elastic force length spring when the pennation angle reaches 90 degrees. Note that the units of this stiffness are (normalized force) / cos(engagmentAngleInDegrees). If the engagement angle is 80 degrees, a good stiffness to start with is -2*(1/cosd(engagementAngleInDegrees))
curvinessA dimensionless parameter between [0-1] that controls how the curve is drawn: 0 will create a curve that is very close to a straight line segment while a value of 1 will create a curve that smoothly fills the corner formed by the linear extrapolation of 'stiffnessAtPerpendicularFiber' and the x axis as shown in the figure. A good curviness parameter value to start with is 0.5.
muscleNameThe name of the muscle this curve belongs to. This name is used to create the name of this curve, which is formed simply by appending "_FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve" to the string in muscleName. This name is used for making intelligible error messages and also for naming the XML version of this curve when it is serialized.

Conditions

    0 < engagmentAngleInDegrees < 90
    stiffnessAtPerpendicular < -1/engagmentAngleInDegrees
    0 <= curviness <= 1

Computational Costs

    ~174,100 flops

Default Parameter Values

    engagmentAngleInDegrees = 80

◆ FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve() [3/3]

OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve ( double  engagementAngleInDegrees,
const std::string &  muscleName 
)

Constructs a C2 continuous compressive fiber force cos pennation curve using only the mandatory property, engagmentAngleInDegrees.

The sole purpose of this curve is to prevent the pennation angle from reaching an angle of 90 degrees. Details to appear in Millard et al. 2012.

Parameters
engagementAngleInDegreesThe pennation angle engagement angle of the fiber compressive force pennation curve. Making the spring engage too far from 90 degrees may unrealistically limit the force production capability of the muscle. An engagement angle of 80 degrees is a good place to start.
muscleNameThe name of the muscle this curve belongs to. This name is used to create the name of this curve, which is formed simply by appending "_FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve" to the string in muscleName. This name is used for making intelligible error messages and also for naming the XML version of this curve when it is serialized.

Optional Parameters If the optional parameters have not yet been set, they are computed when functions getStiffnessAtPerpendicularInUse(), and getCurvinessInUse() are called. See the documentation for these functions for details

Conditions:

        0 < engagmentAngleInDegrees < 90

Computational Costs

        ~174,100 flops

Default Parameter Values

         engagmentAngleInDegrees = 80

◆ assign()

void OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::assign ( Object aObject)
inlineoverride

This allows copy assignment in the Java GUI.

Exceptions
Exceptionif the argument is not of type FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve.

double OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::calcDerivative ( double  cosPennationAngle,
int  order 
) const

Calculates the derivative of the fiber compressive force pennation angle curve w.r.t.

to cosPennationAngle.

Parameters
cosPennationAngleThe cosine of the fiber pennation angle
orderthe order of the derivative. Only values of 0,1 and 2 are acceptable.
Returns
the derivative of the fiber compressive force pennation angle curve w.r.t. to cosPennationAngle

Computational Costs

    x in curve domain  : ~391 flops
    x in linear section:   ~2 flops       

◆ calcDerivative() [2/2]

double OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::calcDerivative ( const std::vector< int > &  derivComponents,
const SimTK::Vector &  x 
) const
overridevirtual

If possible, use the simpler overload above.

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Function.

◆ calcIntegral()

double OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::calcIntegral ( double  cosPennationAngle) const
Parameters
cosPennationAngleThe cosine of the pennation angle
Returns
Computes the normalized area under the curve. For this curve, this quantity corresponds to the normalized potential energy stored in the fiber compressive force cos pennation spring - simply multiply this quantity by the number of NormForce (where NormForce corresponds to the number of Newtons that 1 normalized force corresponds to) to obtain the potential energy stored in the fiber in units of Joules. Note that NormDistance is omitted because the length dimension of this curve is not normalized, only the force dimension.

Computational Costs

    x in curve domain  : ~13 flops
    x in linear section: ~19 flops

◆ calcValue() [1/2]

double OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::calcValue ( double  cosPennationAngle) const

Calculates the value of the curve evaluated at cosPennationAngle.

Parameters
cosPennationAngleThe cosine of the fiber pennation angle
Returns
the normalized force generated by the compressive force element

Computational Costs

    x in curve domain  : ~282 flops
    x in linear section:   ~5 flops

◆ calcValue() [2/2]

double OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::calcValue ( const SimTK::Vector &  x) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Implement the generic OpenSim::Function interface.

◆ clone()

FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve* OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::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.

Implements OpenSim::Function.

◆ ensureCurveUpToDate()

void OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::ensureCurveUpToDate ( )

◆ get_curviness()

const double& OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::get_curviness ( ) const
inline

◆ get_stiffness_at_perpendicular()

const double& OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::get_stiffness_at_perpendicular ( ) const
inline

Get the value of the stiffness_at_perpendicular property.

◆ getClassName()

static const std::string& OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::getClassName ( )
inlinestatic

This returns "FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve".

See getConcreteClassName() if you want the class name of the underlying concrete object instead.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ getConcreteClassName()

const std::string& OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::getConcreteClassName ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

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.

See also
getClassName()

Implements OpenSim::Function.

◆ getCurveDomain()

SimTK::Vec2 OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::getCurveDomain ( ) const

This function returns a SimTK::Vec2 that contains in its 0th element the lowest value of the curve domain, and in its 1st element the highest value in the curve domain of the curve.

Outside of this domain the curve is approximated using linear extrapolation.

Returns
The minimum and maximum value of the domain, x, of the curve y(x). Within this range y(x) is a curve, outside of this range the function y(x) is a C2 (continuous to the second derivative) linear extrapolation

◆ getCurvinessInUse()

If this property is empty, then a value is computed and returned. The value is computed using the following:

           curviness = 0.1       

◆ getEngagementAngleInDegrees()

double OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::getEngagementAngleInDegrees ( ) const
Returns
The pennation angle engagement angle of the fiber compressive force pennation curve.

◆ getStiffnessAtPerpendicularInUse()

double OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::getStiffnessAtPerpendicularInUse ( ) const
Returns
This is the stiffness of the compressive elastic force length spring when the pennation angle reaches 90 degrees. If this property has been set, the property value is returned. If this property is empty, then a value is computed and returned. The value is computed using the following:
           stiffnessAtPerpendicular = -2 * 1/cosd(engagementAngleInDegrees)        

where cosd is a cosine function that takes its argument in units of degrees

◆ isFittedCurveBeingUsed()

bool OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::isFittedCurveBeingUsed ( ) const
Returns
true if the internal fitting routine (which takes only one argument, the engagementAngleInDegrees) is being used. False is returned if the user has set the optional parameters.

◆ printMuscleCurveToCSVFile()

void OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::printMuscleCurveToCSVFile ( const std::string &  path)

This function will generate a csv file with a name that matches the curve name (e.g.

"bicepfemoris_FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve.csv"). This function is not const to permit the curve to be rebuilt if it is out of date with its properties.

Parameters
pathThe full path to the location. Note '/' slashes must be used, and do not put a '/' after the last folder.

The file will contain the following columns:

 Col# 1, 2,     3,       4,  
      x, y, dy/dx, d2y/dx2,

The curve will be sampled from its linear extrapolation region (the region with normalized fiber velocities < -1), through the curve, out to the other linear extrapolation region (the region with normalized fiber velocities > 1). The width of each linear extrapolation region is 10% of the entire range of x, or 0.1*(x1-x0).

The curve is sampled quite densely: there are 200+20 rows

Computational Costs

      ~194,800 flops

Example To read the csv file with a header in from Matlab, you need to use csvread set so that it will ignore the header row. This is accomplished by using the extra two numerical arguments for csvread to tell the function to begin reading from the 1st row, and the 0th index (csvread is 0 indexed). This is necessary to skip reading in the text header

  data=csvread('bicepfemoris_FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve.csv',1,0);

◆ safeDownCast()

◆ setEngagementAngleInDegrees()

void OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::setEngagementAngleInDegrees ( double  aEngagementAngleInDegrees)
Parameters
aEngagementAngleInDegreesSets the pennation angle engagement angle of the fiber compressive force pennation curve. Cost The curve is rebuilt at a cost of ~174,100 flops

◆ setOptionalProperties()

void OpenSim::FiberCompressiveForceCosPennationCurve::setOptionalProperties ( double  aStiffnessAtPerpendicular,
double  aCurviness 
)
Parameters
aStiffnessAtPerpendicularThis is the stiffness of the compressive elastic force length spring when the pennation angle reaches 90 degrees.
aCurvinessA dimensionless parameter between [0-1] that controls how the curve is drawn: 0 will create a curve that is very close to a straight line segment while a value of 1 will create a curve that smoothly fills the corner formed by the linear extrapolation of 'stiffnessAtOneNormForce' and the x axis as shown in the figure.

Cost The curve is rebuilt at a cost of ~174,100 flops
