Thank you Ayman, things are getting more clear. But I have some last questions You said before: For reserves and residuals, since these reflect errors/unmodeled behaviors, we'd like the optimizer to use them the least. By making max/optimal force small, we make it more expensive for the optimizer to...

Hi Ayman, Thank you for your answer but I don't know if I explained well, sorry. I've attached point and torque actuators only to the pelvis and I changed the following parameters: <optimal_force>, <min_control>, <max_control>,to investigate the effect of this choice in the final results - muscle fo...

Hi all, I still have some questions on this topic . Now Static optimization is running and I'm trying to evaluate the choice of the residual actuators that I have attached to the model. I chose the minimal value of force for which the model ran and then I changed the values for control in an logical...

Thank you Ajay.

Hi all,

I would like the point kinematic analyses to print just the point position file and not the velocity and aceleration files. Is this option available ?

thanks

David, when I run IK from command line (in windows) I usually save the messages given by the OpenSim in a txt file. I belive that doing this you can read the file with matlab and analyse marker errors. For example if tou want to save the message in the folder C:\Users\Documents\IKresults in a file c...

Thank you Ayman,

Now it is clear !

Hi, I'm still having some problems with Static Optimization and I think it's because I didn't understand it as I should. So I have some questions One of the "Best Practice and Troubleshooting" tips for static optimization is: "Increase the maximun control value of a residual or reserve actuator, whi...

<t>Hi,<br/> <br/> maybe it is a silly question but I would like to know the difference between body force and point force in the Create/Edit Prescribed Force Panel. <br/> Both types of force allow for the "Applies Torque" option. Where is this torque applied when you choose for the Body Force ? <br/...

I belive it is N.m !

I ran an example that came with the program and compared with some data I have and they are the same order of magnitude.
