Inverse dynamics and external forces

Hey guys, Quick question: we're trying to run inverse dynamics for some running simulations with a full-body model (including arms), but didn't bother to fit the arm motions in inverse kinematics. Does the OpenSim inverse dynamics tool run classical inverse dynamics where the inertia of bodies above...

Mex Compiler

Thank you for sharing this excellent tool! I would like to add some features to the OpenSim model. Could you possibly also share the matlab compiling commands you used to create the .mexw32 function?

Thank you!

Re: How to calculate muscle moment arm during gait

This is the easiest method. Check out page 6 (section III): http://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:8080/download/attachments/5115753/OpenSim+Tutorial1+for+30+and+31.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1390495391398 Alternatively, this discussion has some examples of how to use the API with a loaded motion:...

Re: Matlab API: Extracting Muscle Info

Hey James, Thanks for the response. It did help. However, I have encountered another problem. The Matlab API is returning 'NaN' for all muscle moment arm values about the MTP joint (OpenSim 2392 model with Chand John's walking data; the MTP joint angle is constant). The OpenSim GUI plot function ret...

Matlab API: Extracting Muscle Info

Hello everyone, I am trying to extract muscle properties and moment arms from an OpenSim model across a dynamic task. I have prescribed a motion for the model using the example script 'prescribeMotionInModel.m', but I do not understand how to cycle through the states of the motion in order to extrac...
